Hi, I'm Dawn
As the founder of Independence Counselling, I am a believer in the power of connection. In the power of supporting each other and in the power of allowing others to support us.
Life can be hard. And telling someone that we are struggling can sometimes be harder. Staying hidden and silent won’t bring us the healing we long for. But reaching out, risking just might. I hope you take the risk and reach out. I’ll be right here.
Welcome to Independence Counselling
Our Approach
Connecting
The first step is to connect. We believe that the cornerstone of successful therapy is the client-therapist relationship, so it's key that we get to know you and what you're going through.
Listening
Next, it's all about listening. The critical thing to remember here is that, as your therapist, our job is to listen to hear, rather than listening to respond. We want to help you discern where you are, and where you want to go.
Helping
Finally, we walk alongside you on your journey towards the place you want to go and the person you want to be. We help uncover the skills you need to get there, and we encourage you along the way.
Proudly Nova Scotian
At Independence Counselling, we are proud to have a home base in our beautiful Nova Scotia, Canada, where we offer online therapy services to people not only in our province, but across Canada and worldwide.
