My Story and Approach
Hello and welcome! My name is Nicole Couillard (she/her). If you are experiencing relationship/family difficulties, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, struggles with self-esteem and overall difficulties navigating the challenges of life, I will honour your experience through the power of self-compassion, curiosity, understanding and meaningful connection. I believe that challenging our limiting beliefs and behaviours is essential to learning and growing as humans. Together, we can create the space to foster healing, build coping skills and empower you to write your own story.
Background
I have a diverse professional background that spans over twenty-five years, working with children, teenagers, and families in education, addiction treatment, and residential settings. I hold a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology and am registered as a Provisional Psychologist, with education in Psychology, Education, and Children's Mental Health.
My blended approach to therapy includes Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). I am attachment-focused and client-centred. I offer in-person, virtual, and walking therapy in Airdrie and Cochrane.
I look forward to creating a safe and trusting working relationship as I walk alongside you (and your family) on your journey toward healing and growth.
