Michelle Thornton

I work at this beautiful Clinic between the hours of 10am-3pm on Friday and Saturday. Upon request I can also do sessions on a Monday. 

My engaging and down to earth personality allows you to feel comfortable and nurtured in our sessions. My therapy framework is Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and also Solution Focused Therapy. This type of therapy allows clients to get results quite quickly. Whether you wish to work on anxiety management or managing depression symptoms, the CBT piece allows you to get to the core of what is going on for you and offers valuable tools to use in between sessions. 

I enjoy working with clients to help them feel better/ make better and improve lifestyle choices/ manage stress to prevent burnout/ and help you become the best version of you. 

I look forward to working with you on your counselling journey. I offer a free 20 minute initial phone consultation to find out more about you and how I can best support you. 

My practice is person centred and I believe each client is unique and help find the best tools to work with you on your therapy path. I integrate Positive Psychology tools into our work together. 

During our work together we will be working on therapy goals that you have come up with and we will have a direction to our work referring back to these goals/intentions. 

During the first session, we will get to know each other. I will ask you to complete a brief new client intake form and I can assist you if you have any questions. 

We will then craft some therapy goals so we know the direction our work will take together. 

I am welcoming new clients. Congratulations embarking on your therapy journey. I offer a free 20 minute consultation to find out more about you and how I can best support you. If we decide we can work together, I will book you in for a first session finding a time that suits your schedule. 

 I work from The Circle Of Health from Thursday afternoon and over the weekend with flexible hours. Also offering a hybrid style of counselling if you prefer some office sessions and some remote sessions. Counselling tailored to fit your needs. 

I am a holistic counsellor and offer integrate a whole person approach when working with clients. My person centered approach to counselling is interactive, collaborative and solution focused. My therapeutic framework is Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and I enjoy working with clients using this helpful style. CBT is wonderful to address anxiety and depression and helping to learn helpful coping mechanisms. In addition, it examines core beliefs and looks at how our belief systems can sometimes keep us stuck. 

I like to offer CBT tools you can add to your toolbox. Practical and useful tools to help manage symptoms and improve your quality of life. I am a very engaging therapist and enjoy working with clients offering weekly assignments and CBT skillset practices. I  offer an abundance of practical therapeutic tools to practice in between session. I encourage clients to keep a journal and so we can track the progress and mini assignments in between session and our work together. Keeping a journal is also a wonderful therapy practice and is a nice keepsake for after the therapy journey ends. 

I look forward to working with you.

My style of therapy is empathic and compassionate. My warm and down to earth personality will put you at ease in the counselling room. I am a person centered counsellor and also integrate mind-body practices into our work together. I have a spiritual and holistic approach while working with clients.
