individual therapy for adults and adolescents in Ontario
fee: $150 | in person and online
I have been committed to supporting people with their mental health since I was a teenager, starting as as a peer support volunteer on a LGBTQ+ help line. In the years since I have carried on the work serving diverse populations in a variety of settings. I have a Master’s degree in integrative psychotherapy from University of Toronto. I have also trained in Gestalt therapy at the Gestalt Institute of Toronto.
I bring my full self to the therapy room, including my love for dance as a somatic practice, months of monastic Buddhist training, years of community organizing, and a lifetime of experience giving and receiving support in queer community as a trans woman.
My full self also includes my own experiences of surviving violence and self-alienation. I have spent time living a rigid and disconnected life. Through therapy, spirituality, and community I have found softness and flexibility with myself and with others, a place from which I’ll meet with you. I’m curious, where would you like to feel more flexible and connected?
