The Team to Support You

About Mindful Therapies — Counselling in Nova Scotia

Making the decision to try therapy isn't always easy. We're glad you found us, and we want to make getting support as simple and accessible as possible.

Counselling in Nova Scotia That Meets You Where You Are

Mindful Therapies is a trusted mental health and wellness clinic based in Nova Scotia, founded in 2016 by Dr. Rebecca Boehm, PhD, a licensed clinical psychologist with extensive experience in trauma-informed care. Our interdisciplinary team includes Clinical Social Workers, Psychologists and Registered Counselling Therapists committed to compassionate, evidence-based support.

The name Mindful Therapies reflects our core approach — integrating mindfulness practices with proven psychotherapies. We specialize in Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) for anxiety and depression, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) for trauma recovery, and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) skills training for emotional regulation.

With offices in Dartmouth, Wolfville and Halifax — and a dedicated virtual care team — we are proud to serve clients across Nova Scotia. We offer individual, group and veteran-focused therapy, both in-person and online.
