Kayla Breelove Carter

Hello! I am a Licensed Counselling Therapist, and have been practicing counselling therapy since 2012. I am from Moncton, NB.

I began working with non profit organizations in my community since 2010, but also volunteered my time from 2007 in other communities, during my undergrad at St. Mary's University, Halifax, NS. I've always had a passion for psychology, which brought me to complete my Master's in Counselling Psychology at Yorkville University. With a passion for Trauma, PTSD, and IPV, it became clear to me that many of the individuals I hoped to assist through mental health, lived in poverty and could not afford counselling therapy or had transportation barriers. Having had the opportunity to work within the non profit world, it was helpful to gain a better understanding of the barriers face by individuals living in poverty, but also the difficulties in the lack of skills by frontline workers.

Creating resources for frontline workers to better support those in need, along with providing affordable and accessible counselling has been my goal, with technology becoming more accessible to those who may otherwise not have access to conventional services, this really became an opportunity to spread my resources to reach as many individuals as I could.

I am fortunate enough to have a supportive network, which allows me to give so much back to my community. I want to be able to give back in a meaningful way, there is a significant need for mental health services anywhere, so why not give back using the expert skills i've acquired throughout my academic lifetime and careers in government, non profit, and private. I would love the opportunity to provide an alternative to face to face counselling therapy, and to reach individuals throughout my province, rather than, those who can travel to the office and/or pay for the service.
