Meet Nicole

​

I’m a Registered Counselling Therapist and Canadian Certified Counsellor, and I’ve had the privilege of supporting both youth and adults through a wide range of life experiences. I offer a person-centered and compassion-focused space where you are welcome just as you are. Our work together is rooted in kindness, curiosity, and care, and shaped by your unique story, needs, and hopes for change. I support clients through a range of life’s challenges—including healing from trauma, navigating intense emotions, and working through complex relationships. I am deeply affirming of LGBTQIA2S+ identities and committed to creating an inclusive, supportive environment where you feel safe to be fully yourself. Therapy with me is collaborative and flexible. We’ll move at your pace, using approaches that feel right for you, as you build more connection, clarity, and compassion in your life.

Safe Space Counselling operates out of Rise Counselling Collective 

Safe Space Counselling is located in Mi'kma'ki, the ancestral and unceded territory of the Mi'kmaq. This territory is covered by the Treaties of Peace and Friendship. Recognizing the land demonstrates gratitude, respect and appreciation to those who have lived on the land for generations and continue to do so, as well as honors the Indigenous people who have a long-standing relationship with the land. 

People of African descent have shared these lands, in what is now called Nova Scotia, for more than 400 years; over 50 strong and resourceful African Nova Scotian communities exist here today. 

I am committed to providing a safe, respectful, and affirming space for individuals of all sexual orientations, gender identities, and gender expressions. I recognize the unique challenges faced by LGBTQIA2S+ communities and are dedicated to offering inclusive, compassionate, and competent counselling services.

My practice is grounded in the values of equity, dignity, and intersectionality. I honour the diversity within LGBTQIA2S+ identities and acknowledge the ongoing impact of systemic discrimination, while working to create a therapeutic environment that fosters healing, growth, and self-acceptance.

You are welcome here, exactly as you are.
