My journey to becoming a therapist is deeply rooted in a personal commitment to understanding and supporting those who have experienced trauma. Inspired by my own personal experiences with adversity and fuelled by a desire to make a difference, I decided to embark on this path dedicated towards helping others.

With extensive experience working with children, youth, and adults, I specialize in addressing a wide range of mental health challenges, including trauma, stress, anxiety, and depression. If you’re someone who feels like you’re not good enough, struggles to set boundaries, or seeks deeper connections with yourself and others, you’re in the right place.

Navigating life’s challenges can feel like an uphill battle, but you don’t have to face it alone. My name is Michelle Johnston and I’m a Registered Psychologist with a passion for helping individuals of all ages overcome their mental health obstacles and discover their inner resilience.

My approach to therapy is highly collaborative and I like to tailor the focus of our sessions to your unique needs and goals. By utilizing evidence-based approaches such as ACT, CBT, solution-focused therapy, and mindfulness, I empower my clients to navigate their struggles with increased clarity and confidence.

Additionally, I’m trained to deliver EMDR which is a powerful tool to address trauma and facilitate healing on a deeper level.

In our work together, you can expect more than just a listening ear—I’m here to provide guidance, support, and practical strategies to help you overcome limiting beliefs and create positive change in your life.

If you’re ready to embark on a journey of self-discovery, healing, and growth, I invite you to take the first step with me. Together, we’ll unlock your inner strength and rewrite your story—one of resilience, empowerment, and limitless potential.
