How does it work?

Being human is not always easy. Life can be a struggle sometimes, and sometimes things can be going pretty well and yet we still don't feel great. We might have a sense of what is "off", or we might not. Whatever's going on for you, whether you're new to therapy or have done it before, regular in-person conversations with a psychotherapist can really help and, over time, provide lasting clarity and relief. My office, in Toronto's Annex neighbourhood, is a calm, safe and comfortable space in which we can talk.  ​ During our conversations, my role as your therapist will be to be present with you, no matter what comes up for you, and to always strive to be curious, steadfast, non-judgemental and kind. As your trust develops you may go deeper into who you are and how you feel, and into your history. You may begin to identify patterns, habits of being and relating; tracing and untangling the threads which connect you to your life. The work will be led by you. I will listen, and there will be questions along the way. An important thing to remember is that I am trained to listen carefully. To listen for what you are trying to tell me even when you are at your most quiet; even when you are silent. To listen, to bear witness, and to support you in your work to become better acquainted with yourself and with who you want to be. ​ ​
