At Thrive Atlantic Counselling, my work focuses on helping people find steadiness in uncertain times. Whether it’s aging, caregiving, or adapting to life changes, I offer space to pause, reflect, and reconnect with what matters most.

Hi, I’m Brendan Storey, MSW, RSWI am a Registered Social Worker and founder of Thrive Atlantic Counselling. My approach is flexible, collaborative, and grounded in compassion. Whether we’re talking about grief, illness, transitions or everyday change, I aim to make therapy feel natural and supportive.
I provide grounded, practical counselling for older adults, caregivers, and adult families, designed to help them preserve dignity, maintain self-determination, and find peace when life feels most unstable. Because accessing support shouldn't be another stressor, I specialize in Mobile (in-home) and secure Virtual Counselling across New Brunswick. I meet you where you are: in your private residence, retirement community, or long-term care facility, or via secure video, ensuring support is accessible, discreet, and stress-free. |
My Focus: The People and the Path
|
My practice is dedicated to the people navigating life's most complex passages.
The layered reality of aging can feel like sailing into turbulent, uncharted waters, often challenging your core sense of self and stability. I specialize in offering guidance when these life transitions become overwhelming. I offer the structures and compassionate space needed to achieve meaningful resilience and balance as you move past the breakwater toward calmer, more stable shores. You don't have to navigate these challenges alone. |
Who I work with and what we achieve:
|
Please note: My specialization is strictly focused on older adults, caregivers, and adult families navigating age-related change. I do not provide general couples counselling or child/adolescent counselling.
