Life’s challenges can be overwhelming, but you don’t have to face them alone. Counselling therapy offers the support you need to navigate the ups and downs of life.

​

Clients work with me to overcome concerns in the following areas:​

​

  • emotional regulation

  • life transitions

  • parenting issues

  • relationship challenges

  • self-esteem

  • trauma and complex trauma

 

A gentle and compassionate therapy process will help you:

 

  • process distressing experiences

  • gain a deeper understanding of yourself

  • build self-esteem & healthy boundaries

  • manage stress & anxiety

  • cultivate self-acceptance

  • improve communication

  • build new connections

  • restore intimacy in existing relationships

Hi, I'm Inna Viriasova.

I’m a counselling therapist and university teacher.

​​

I’ve been successfully helping clients and students for over a decade to develop their full potential and foster mental well-being. In addition to my part-time work in private practice, I teach in the Counselling Program at Acadia University.

​​

I’m passionate about helping individuals and couples cultivate stronger relationships, emotional resilience, and a deeper understanding of themselves. Inspired by the strength of Indigenous, Black, and 2SLGBTQ+ people, I'm also committed to building inclusive communities that foster health and wellness.
​

I offer counselling in English and Ukrainian, available in-person in Coldbrook, NS and online throughout Canada.
