Malinda Dunfield
Licensed Counsellor & Breath Coach
Hello and Welcome! I am a Registered Psychotherapist, Licensed Counselling Therapist and Certified Functional & Therapeutic Breathwork Practitioner. I use a blend of relational talk therapy and functional breathing techniques to work with adult individuals and couples on issues related to stress, anxiety, and other forms of emotional and physical dysregulation.
Therapy at a Glance
My heart lies in traditional talk therapy. I believe there are huge benefits to exploring your reality in the presence of an empathic witness. We all have a story to tell, but we don't always get the opportunity to be heard. Talk therapy provides a space to reflect, to wonder, to mourn and to celebrate. It can be a powerful process of discovery and self connection.
I have also fallen in love with the benefits of functional breath work. Sometimes talking and knowing doesn't quite feel like enough. We cannot change what we're not aware of, so talking and building awareness is a foundational step to change. But where do we go from there? For those seeking some practical strategies, I weave breath regulation techniques into the therapy to build tools of emotional regulation and restoration of balance to the body, promoting better mental, emotional and physical health.
Contact Me
I offer a FREE 45 minute consultation to give us a chance to meet (virtually), to discuss your unique background and goals, and to answer any questions you have. Included is a FREE breath physiology assessment (optional) to determine how much of your stress or anxiety is related to the state of your nervous system and/or your body's chemistry.
I see clients in person out of my office in Saint John, New Brunswick. I also offer virtual sessions in New Brunswick and Ontario for those wishing to attend from the comfort of their own home or office!
