I am the home my parts have always longed for.
I carry the light that connects, protects, and heals.
My truth is not what the world asked me to be,
It is what quietly endured when I was unseen.
I can choose tenderness over performance,
Presence over protection,
Authenticity over silence.
I can hold the ones inside me,
with sacred love and listening.
We are not alone anymore.
This light in me is not mine alone,
It flows between us, around us, and into the world.
I walk forward from this place,
whole, connected, and free.

Welcome to
Healing With Mel Galbraith
Our mission is to provide compassionate, trauma-informed psychotherapy that empowers individuals to explore and heal their inner worlds. Grounded in the Internal Family Systems (IFS) model, we create a safe and supportive space where clients can understand their parts, reconnect with their inherent strengths, and cultivate meaningful, sustainable change.
Our Commitment…
Healing With Mel Galbraith is a trauma-informed psychotherapy practice dedicated to supporting individuals on their journeys toward deeper self-understanding, healing, and integration. Our work is grounded in the Internal Family Systems (IFS) model — a compassionate, non-pathologizing approach that helps people explore the many “parts” of themselves in a safe, creative, and empowering way.
At Healing With Mel Galbraith we believe that healing comes from connecting with our internal world — not just to “fix” what’s broken, but to nurture the parts of ourselves often left in the shadows. Through this lens, we guide individuals to access their inner resources, build strength, and live more aligned, compassionate lives.
Where We’re Headed…
Our vision is a community where people feel deeply seen, supported, and connected to their authentic selves. We strive to be a leading centre for IFS-informed therapy and education—fostering healing, resilience, and self-leadership in individuals, and contributing to a broader culture of empathy, emotional wellness, and inner harmony.
