Etobicoke, ON

I believe when we accept and honor our feelings and embrace all facets of ourselves - deep healing and transformation can occur. Many of us have forgotten how to feel our emotions, how to let them move through our bodies like pure energy forms - letting anger churn, hope to blossom, grief to contract, disappointment to gut us, or sit with unmet longing as if it were an old friend. My approach as a relational therapist is to simply be with what's true for you, moment to moment. I practice this through supportive listening and staying with you in whatever comes up. I will tend to your heart and ...

I work with how your unconscious mind has learned to cope with overwhelming life experiences, both in youth and adulthood, which have interrupted your ...
