Miranda Dolphin, MC, Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC)

Hi, my name is Miranda (she/her) and I am the Collective Healing Centre’s newest counselor!

First of all, I want to commend you on seeking out therapy. I have been on the other side of the therapy couch, and I know how vulnerable it can feel to ask for help.

I practice therapy because I believe people have the ability to change and grow, but sometimes need gentle guidance in a safe, supportive space. I welcome clients from all walks of life—any sexuality, gender expression, cultural background, and body size. Everyone is deserving of care! I practice through an anti-oppressive, intersectional feminist lens. I am deeply aware of the larger systems at play, and how they affect the populations I serve. As cost is often a barrier to care, our centre offers sliding scale pricing, as well as virtual and telehealth appointments for a wider range of accessibility.

With a background in seniors recreation therapy, I have developed equal amounts of patience and play. My approach is psychodynamic, person-centered, and trauma-informed, so I strive to create a non-judgmental, collaborative relationship that fosters exploration, validation, and understanding. In sessions, I incorporate mindfulness, somatic movement work, art and humour—because sometimes you just need to laugh! If we want to get out of the office, I provide walking ecotherapy in the surrounding neighbourhood.

I work with individual clients from the ages of 12 and up. I can help with anxiety, body image, burn-out, depression, eating disorders, eco-anxiety, emotional regulation, grief, life transitions, self-harm, spirituality and trauma. I also support neurodivergent folks—including those with ADHD and autism—in understanding themselves more deeply and finding ways to move through life that feel authentic and sustainable. No matter why you come, I hope you will leave our sessions feeling heard, accepted, and empowered, with new tools and practices to incorporate into your daily life.

Outside of work, I enjoy reading, watching movies, being in nature, theatre, building community, and making art. It would be a privilege to meet and work with you!
