Get to Know Us

Adam W. Grady, Registered Psychologist

In my practice, I strive to create a warm and collaborative space in which my clients can feel open to discussing their thoughts, feelings, and goals safely and without judgment. Because every individual is unique, I adhere to an integrative approach to psychological treatment, drawing upon Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Mindfulness Therapy interventions.

Following my education and training in Montreal, I returned home to Nova Scotia, where I have been practicing in both the public and private care sectors as a Registered Psychologist.

Craig Isnor, Psychologist (Candidate Register)

I provide counselling and psychotherapy for psychological and psychosocial challenges individuals may experience. These may include, but are not limited to, anxiety, depression, emotional pain, career, stress, social skills, those living with ASD and ADHD, and those seeking to create more meaning in their lives and reclaim purpose or develop new ways of coping.

I adhere to an integrative approach to treatment. My aim is to address the core issues and promote your strengths to create balance and vitality in your life. I aspire to do this by creating a warm, safe, transparent, and collaborative environment to understand your needs and adapt therapy to meet those needs.

I welcome the opportunity to speak with you and learn more about your challenges and how we may address these challenges.

Emily Sweeney, Occupational Therapist

I’m an occupational therapist specializing in mental health. With a deep understanding of the intricate relationship between mental well-being and daily functioning, I offer a comprehensive range of services that combine mental health occupational therapy and psychotherapeutic techniques.

In mental health occupational therapy practice, I focus on helping individuals enhance their overall well-being by addressing the physical, cognitive, emotional, and environmental factors that impact their mental health. Through collaborative goal-setting and tailored interventions, I support clients in developing essential skills and strategies to manage daily challenges, improve self-care, and engage in meaningful activities that promote their recovery and resilience.

Chris Moule, Psychologist (Candidate Register) and RCT-c

As a counseling therapist, my approach to therapy is rooted in collaboration, empathy, and non-judgmental acceptance. With these elements in place, the aim is for clients to feel safe enough and encouraged to be open and explorative. My therapeutic approach is tailored to meet the unique needs and goals of each client while I draw mainly from my experience and training in Internal Family Systems therapy and Psychodynamic therapy.

I have experience working with clients struggling with anxiety, depression, loss of meaning, grief, PTSD (and various trauma), loss of self-worth, relationship problems, and other issues. Whether you’re struggling with a specific issue or looking for a deeper understanding of yourself, I’d be pleased to help. Greater emotional balance, resilience, purpose, and well-being are possible.

Samantha Thonhaugen-Good (she/her) Registered Counselling Therapist Candidate (RCT-C)

As an RCT-C, I work with a client-centered focus and a dedication to fostering growth and healing. With a commitment to providing a safe, non-judgmental space, I strive to create a comfortable relationship with every client. I provide an eclectic and integrative approach to therapy, tailoring therapeutic methods, such as mindfulness, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), solution-focused brief therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and narrative therapy approaches to meet the unique needs of each individual.

Grounded in empathy and compassion, I have worked with individuals from various backgrounds, creating an environment where each person feels seen, heard, and supported while also cultivating a trauma informed approach. I offer a collaborative and holistic approach, and invite clients to embark on a transformative journey towards self-awareness, understanding of the self, resilience and overall well-being. I value supporting those who may lack support in their lives.

Laura Whynot, Registered Counselling Therapist Candidate
(RCT-C)

Hi there,

When working with me as your counsellor, my main priority will always be to create a safe and welcoming space for you that starts from day one. Taking the leap to begin therapy can often come with a lot of uncertainty and my hope is that together we can collaboratively work toward your goals in a way that feels both authentic and supportive of your individual needs. I personally believe in a client-centered approach and will draw from a variety of therapeutic modalities such as Narrative Therapy or Internal Family Systems, however my personal philosophy is to work from an integrative lens.

I truly believe that everyone can benefit from therapy, however some of my areas of interest include: stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, self-esteem and work-place issues.
