The story of Cosmos Counselling
My name is Michelle Meier and I am the founder of Cosmos Counselling. I am a Registered Social Worker with the College of Social Workers. I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Social Development studies with a minor in religion, a Bachelor’s degree in Social Work and a Master’s Degree in Social Work all from the University of Waterloo.
I view counselling as an opportunity to help people cope with the normal and extraordinary challenges of life, lessen suffering, and settle more comfortably within the present moment. I believe in forming a connection where people feel accepted and challenged to grow in new and meaningful ways. I consider it to be a great privilege to be a part of the brave and vulnerable experience of unpacking struggles and working together to build new and lighter ways forward. I enjoy working with individuals with concerns that include anxiety, women’s issues, depression, self-esteem, and relationships.
I was born and raised in Ontario and have been working in the social services field since 2015. I am passionate about health and fitness. I have a Yoga instructor certification and love weight lifting. I also enjoy cooking, learning about other cultures, being in nature, and caring for animals. I am an avid learner and appreciate staying up to date on new research and making lots of time for continuing education.
