Personalized Therapy
for Real Change.
You already know you need the support of therapy, but you would rather work with a therapist who’s on your wavelength instead of treatments that don’t work for you.
When you want to make real progress with therapy and ensure your treatment plan is both effective and relevant to today’s challenges, our flexible and contemporary approach is for you.

-
Individual Therapy
We all have baggage—but you don’t have to carry it all alone. Whether you’re facing anxiety, depression, life transitions, or are just trying to make sense of things, we’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 you’re struggling with navigating old habits or just trying to figure out the balance of partnership & communication in your relationship, we’re here to help build something that works for both of you.
-
Family Therapy
Family is complicated.
When relationships feel tense, strained, or entirely disconnected, we’ll help your family to communicate better, look for common ground, and create healthier patterns that everyone can live with.
-
EMDR Therapy
There are some memories that are simply harder to experience—but they don’t have to hold you back forever. Through Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing therapy, we’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 you’re ready to book immediately with your preferred therapist, you can click here to instantly schedule your first appointment via the Jane app.
-
If you’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 we’ve received your information and matched you with a therapist, you’ll be able to seamlessly book your first session (and following sessions) online through the Jane app.
STEP 2:
After booking your session, you’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. We’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 mind—we’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, I’m Brittany Wells-Pantaleo.
MEET OUR FOUNDER
After 9 years in the mental health field, I’ve learned that traditional therapy methods aren’t always effective for everyone. That’s why, with my fellow clinicians, we don’t settle for textbook or one-size-fits-all approaches. We draw from various evidence-based modalities to create personalized treatment plans tailored to your unique needs. This focus on individualized care has been key to the success of our sister clinic, Moncton Counselling and Wellness, which I’ve proudly owned for almost 4 years. During this time, our clinic has earned multiple awards, reflecting our dedication to excellence and our clients’ success.
You can expect us to listen with empathy, equip you with practical tools to navigate daily challenges, and gently encourage growth in ways that feel safe and achievable. Our goal is to empower you, both in therapy and in everyday life.
Our approach helps you reconnect with your truest self and build confidence to handle whatever life throws your way.
