Ms Nicole Barbour
Registered Social Worker
“Over twenty five years of experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and seniors providing individual, group, family, and parenting support. I rely heavily on evidenced based practice including but not limited to Solution Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, and Narrative Therapy.”
About Me
With over twenty-five years’ experience, I support children, adolescents, adults, and seniors. My work includes individual, group, and family sessions. I draw on evidence-based approaches, like Solution Focused Therapy, to help identify your strengths and build practical strategies. This collaborative space is ideal whether you are navigating personal challenges or seeking parenting support. Clients find my extensive background valuable for addressing life’s complexities.
Approach
Practical, strength-focused steps shape how we work together, breaking bigger changes into manageable moments you can try between sessions. In my Barrie office or through secure online sessions in English, I keep sessions paced to your needs—sometimes focused and short-term for a clear problem, other times slower for deeper life transitions. We use short experiments, narrative reflection and concrete coping strategies to reduce anxiety, burnout or low mood and to navigate traumatic memories safely. This way of working often fits people ready for practical tools and steady support.
