Dr. Michelle Tougas is a Registered Clinical Psychologist working with youth and young adults, 12-30 years old. Michelle encourages her clients to build lives that emphasize caring for both the mind and the body. Her work focuses on striving toward value-based, mindful living.
Michelle aims to guide improvement in daily function and self-compassion for youth and young adults living with anxiety, Eating Disorders, emotional dysregulation, depression or low mood, interpersonal communication struggles, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), sleep disruption, and trauma. To best support her clients and reach desired outcomes, she draws from evidence-based therapeutic techniques, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR), and Family-Based Therapy (FBT).
Michelle’s favourite sound is the rustling of leaves on a windy day. Her calm place is down by the river, wrapped up in a cool breeze surrounded by forest. She enjoys crunchy foods and loves the smell of supper cooking.
