A Bit About Me
Hey there - welcome to my site!
My name is John B. Fletcher. I was born and raised in Miramichi, New Brunswick, Canada, where I live with my wife, five children, a dog, two mini donkeys and six goats!
For as long as I can remember, I have had an innate passion for helping people. This passion led me to become an educator and mental health therapist, where I have spent the last 15 years working.
I have a Bachelor's in Psychology and Education and a Master's in Counselling Psychology. I am trained as a Humanistic Psychotherapist; however, I use a variety of skills and modalities to help my clients reach their goals. Recently, I have received specialized animal-assisted psychotherapy (AAP) training and offer these services on my farm. I am also deeply interested in the impact nature has on one's mental health and wellbeing, and I incorporate a variety of nature-assisted psychotherapy (NAT) skills in my practice as well.
Outside of therapy, I have nearly a decade of experience facilitating workshops and training sessions on various topics within the mental health field. I am keenly interested in public speaking and have been a keynote speaker at large conferences.
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my growing family on our small farm. We love hiking around our property with our goats, gardening, canoeing, camping, and fishing. And I can't forget our monthly Friday Night Movie Nights—they are the best!
