About Healing In Therapy: Psychotherapy in Nova Scotia & New Brunswick
Healing in Therapy - A Vive Wellness Clinic
Healing in Therapy is part of Vive Wellness Clinics, a therapy collective serving clients across Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and Canada-wide through secure virtual care. Being part of a collective rather than a single standalone practice means something practical for you: a wider bench of therapists, a broader range of training and specialization, and a clinic culture built around collaboration rather than any one person's approach being the only option available.
We work with a wide range of presentations, concerns, and people. Some clients come to us with a clear name for what they're dealing with. Others come without one, only a sense that something has been harder than it should be for longer than it should have been. Both are valid starting points.
Where We Specialize
While we see a broad range of concerns, three areas sit at the center of what we do particularly well: OCD, trauma, and neurodivergence.
OCD is widely misunderstood, often reduced to a punchline about tidiness rather than recognized as the exhausting, often hidden cycle of obsessions and compulsions it actually is. Our therapists are trained in Exposure and Response Prevention, the gold-standard approach for OCD, and understand how differently it can present from one person to the next.
Trauma work runs through much of what we do, whether that shows up as EMDR, somatic approaches, or Internal Family Systems. We know that trauma is not always a single identifiable event, and that it can live in the body and in patterns of relating just as much as in memory.
Neurodivergence, including ADHD, autism, and AuDHD, shapes how many of our clients experience the world and, often, how much energy it has taken to mask that experience in spaces not built to accommodate it. We adapt our approaches, not our clients, to fit.
These are areas where our team has gone deep, but they are not the limit of who we work with.
Who We Work With
We welcome all. That includes people navigating anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, grief, life transitions, and everything in between. It includes individuals, couples, and families. It includes teenagers figuring out who they are and adults revisiting questions they thought they had settled years ago. It includes people who have been in therapy before and people walking through the door for the first time, unsure of what to expect.
We also hold space intentionally for clients who have felt overlooked or misunderstood elsewhere, whether because of a diagnosis that was missed for years, an identity that wasn't affirmed, or a presentation that didn't fit neatly into how a previous provider was trained to think.
Our Approach
Across the collective, our therapists draw from evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, EMDR, Exposure and Response Prevention, Internal Family Systems, somatic therapy, and trauma-informed and neurodivergent-informed care. No single method is applied as a default. Your therapist will work with you to understand what you're facing and build a plan suited to your specific situation, sometimes drawing on one approach and sometimes combining several.
We offer sessions in person in Nova Scotia and through secure virtual care across New Brunswick and the rest of Canada, with flexible daytime, evening, and weekend availability, so that support fits around your life rather than the other way around.
Why Vive Wellness Clinics
Being part of a larger collective means Healing in Therapy, based in Nova Scotia and serving clients throughout New Brunswick, is never operating in isolation. Our therapists consult with one another, stay current with training across specialties, and can match you with a clinician whose background genuinely fits what you're bringing to therapy, rather than whoever happens to have an opening.
Therapy works best when the fit is right. Our first conversation with you is about finding that fit, not filling a slot.
