Personalized Therapy

for Lasting Change.

You know therapy can helpโ€”but finding the right therapist in Halifax, someone who actually gets you, makes all the difference.

At Halifax Counselling & Wellness, we take a modern, personalized approach to therapy that fits your life, your pace, and your goals. Whether youโ€™re navigating stress, anxiety, relationships, or something deeper, our flexible, evidence-based counselling is designed to be relevant, supportive, and genuinely effective.

  • Individual Therapy

    We all have baggageโ€”but you donโ€™t have to carry it all alone. Whether youโ€™re facing anxiety, depression, life transitions, or are just trying to make sense of things, weโ€™re here to help you unpack, process, and move forward in a way that feels right for you.

  • Couples Therapy

    No one gets a manual for what a healthy relationship looks like. If youโ€™re struggling with navigating old habits or just trying to figure out the balance of partnership & communication in your relationship, weโ€™re here to help build something that works for both of you.

  • EMDR Therapy

    There are some memories that are simply harder to experienceโ€”but they donโ€™t have to hold you back forever. Through Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing therapy, weโ€™ll guide you through processing traumatic experiences so you can begin to heal & move forward.

Get to know our process

STEP 1:

At Halifax Counselling & Wellness, we make it easy to get started in therapy with two convenient options tailored to your preferences. 

  • If youโ€™re ready to book immediately with your preferred therapist, you can click here to instantly schedule your first appointment via the Jane app.

  • If youโ€™re feeling unsure about where to start or what to expect from therapy, you can start by completing our request form, which will ask you a couple of quick questions about your benefits & coverage and your preferred therapist.

    Once weโ€™ve received your information and matched you with a therapist, youโ€™ll be able to seamlessly book your first session (and following sessions) online through the Jane app. 


STEP 2:

After booking your session, youโ€™ll complete your intake and consent forms directly in the portal. Please note that these forms must be completed prior to your session to ensure your therapist is prepared to offer the best care. 


STEP 3:

In your initial session, we focus on assessment by discussing your unique needs and goals for your therapeutic journey. Weโ€™ll collaborate to develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your needs and situation, and your treatment begins from there. All you have to do is show up with an open mindโ€”weโ€™ll be there to support you every step of the way.


No more settling for anything less than the personalized, compassionate therapy you deserve.

Hi, Iโ€™m Brittany Wells-Pantaleo.

MEET OUR FOUNDER

With 9 years of experience in the mental health field, Iโ€™ve seen firsthand that traditional therapy methods donโ€™t always work for everyone.

Thatโ€™s why, alongside my team of skilled clinicians, we donโ€™t rely on one-size-fits-all approaches. At Halifax Counselling & Wellness, we use a variety of evidence-based therapy techniques to create personalized treatment plans that meet your unique needs. This individualized care is what has made our sister clinic, Moncton Counselling & Wellness, so successful and earned us multiple awards over the past 4 years.

You can expect us to listen with empathy, provide practical tools to help you navigate daily challenges, and encourage your growth in ways that feel safe and achievable. Our goal is to empower youโ€”both in therapy and in everyday life.

Whether youโ€™re working through stress, trauma, or personal growth, our approach helps you reconnect with your truest self and build the confidence to handle whatever life throws your way.

Built On Our Sister Clinic In Monctonโ€™s Legacy, We Ensure Quality Care in Halifax.
