About Me
A Grounded, Compassionate Approach to Healing
My name is Nista Noel, and I am a Registered Social Worker and Psychotherapist, as well as the founder of Cornerstone Counselling Collective.
My work is guided by a deep respect for each person’s lived experience and an understanding that healing is not one-size-fits-all. I am passionate about creating a safe, grounded, and non-judgmental space where individuals and families can feel seen, heard, and supported.

My Background & Practice
I bring together clinical training, lived experience, and a compassionate, client-centred approach to care. My work is rooted in evidence-based practices while remaining flexible and responsive to each client’s unique story, values, and strengths.
Over the years, I have supported individuals through a wide range of emotional and life challenges, including stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma, transitions, and personal growth. I believe meaningful change happens when people feel safe enough to explore their experiences honestly and at their own pace.
