Christine Balan

Thank you for this opportunity to introduce myself!

I graduated from Acadia University in 2017 with a Master of Education in Counselling degree. I am a certified member of the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association and am a Registered Counselling Therapist with the Nova Scotia College of Counselling Therapists.

My counselling approach is client-centered and trauma & polyvagal informed. In addition to being a Compassionate Inquiry Certified Practitioner, I am trained in Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy. I believe that my clients are the experts of their own lives and that we all need to be seen, heard, understood, validated, nurtured, cared for and safe.

I welcome working with people from all walks of life, cultures, racial backgrounds, sexual orientations, genders and religious affiliations. I value diversity and inclusion and act with cultural sensitivity and respect.

I am currently accepting clients for virtual therapy. You can find more information here: www.professionalcounsellingtherapy.com.
