Michelle K Rivet
MSW RSW

I have over 20 years of clinical experience working with individuals, couples, families and first responders (including active military, veterans and police).

I am a trauma informed therapist, trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). I offer a supportive and welcoming environment to assist with the development of self-awareness, the understanding of behaviours and patterns, the appropriate expression of thoughts and feelings and the exploration of healthy and effective coping skills. In my approach to counselling I use a variety of therapeutic modalities including, but not limited to, narrative and mindfulness-based therapy.

​

I have experience working in the areas of trauma, relationships, anxiety, stress, grief and loss, separation and divorce, emotional regulation and, parenting/co-parenting. I have an interest and experience in trauma centred counselling.

I also provide clinical supervision.

​

I have a Master's degree in Social Work from the University of Victoria (BC). I am registered with the OCSWSSW and OASW; I remain in good standing with both professional affiliations. I can also provide virtual counselling for  clients in Newfoundland.

I am an approved Medavie/Blue Cross and NIHB service provider.

​

I have an associate (CRPO) available for virtual sessions.
