Welcome! My name is Kristen Mitchell. I am a Registered Psychologist with a passion for helping
people find their path to healing and
wellness. As a holistic practitioner, I help
clients look at the emotional, physical,
mental, and spiritual sides of themselves
and aim to provide a comforting
environment to share their concerns.
I love working with youth, emerging adults and their
families to reconnect and develop strong and trusting relationships as well as develop
lasting coping skills for adulthood. With a background in education, I also enjoy
working with children of all ages and provide engaging and skill based sessions. I
provide specialized counselling services to children over 7, adolescents, and individuals
struggling with addictions, depression and anxiety.
As every individual is unique, I work with client’s to find out what works best for you
and blend therapeutic techniques. I often use evidence-based practices such as
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Solutions-Focused Approaches, Narrative Therapy and
Mindfulness based practices. I also encourage clients to lean into their passions, create
new coping skills, and lean into community connections.
Coming to therapy can begin a journey of reflecting inwards and asking yourself what
prevents you from living your best life. Becoming vulnerable and sharing your
experiences can help you reconnect with others, find your authentic self, and facilitate
the changes you seek. I look forward to working together to come up with the best
counselling plan for you.
