Registered Nurse, Certified Nurse Psychotherapist/Psychotherapist Nurse
Health Coaching, Psychotherapy
As the owner of Michelle Rose Psychotherapy & Coaching, I offer a personalized and collaborative approach to care. I respect each client’s unique story and support individuals through a compassionate and nonjudgmental process.
With 19 years of experience as a Registered Nurse across diverse clinical and educational roles, I bring a commitment to whole-person, evidence-informed practice. I hold a Bachelor of Nursing Science and a Master of Nursing Science (Education focus) and am qualified as a Certified Nurse Psychotherapist/Psychotherapist Nurse.
My approach is evidence-based and integrative. I specialize in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Motivational Interviewing (MI), and incorporate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness-based approaches, and elements of positive psychology. My practice is grounded in structured skill development and collaborative goal setting.
I support individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, substance use concerns, life transitions, and adjustment to medical conditions, including oncology-related care.
For those seeking a Biblical Christian perspective, spiritual values may be respectfully integrated into therapy upon request.
I am committed to helping individuals build insight, resilience, and practical skills to navigate life’s challenges.

My personal experiences navigating the mental health landscape allow me to bring an authentic understanding of mental health challenges to my practice. My commitment to client-centered care is demonstrated by a proven track record: my previous success in leading a hospital clinic renowned for its excellence in client-centered care. Now, I continue this dedication independently.
