Cory Goodine

Orginally from the north shore in New Brunswick but has been calling Nova Scotia home for the past 14 years. Cory is a big fan of basketball, cycling, running, walking my elderly Jack Russell Terrier, traveling, 90’s music, and anything outdoors that is summer related. Winter… not so much!

Cory has a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Guelph, a Bachelor of Social Work from the University of Victoria, and a clinical Master of Social Work degree from the University of Waterloo. He prides myself in helping individuals, couples, and families to cultivate the motivation and the tools to work towards meaningful change. From his experience with working with Nova Scotians in the mental health and addiction field for over 10 years, he has witnessed that it is sometimes easy to get stuck in patterns of unhelpful thinking and behavior. Cory utilizes different modalities and takes a holistic approach to breaking old routines while creating healthy new ones. He works together and tailors a treatment plan specifically for his patients in order to make change a reality. His areas of specialization: Behavioral activation, depression, anxiety, addiction (substances and behaviours), family work. Main modalities utilized: Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Structured Relapse Prevention, Strengths Based Approach.
