“It is easier to try to be better than we are than to be who we are”.

Marion Woodman’s words speak to the deep dissatisfaction and drive for change that draw many of us into therapy. But what if the ability to change depends on our first accepting who we are now?

Trained in the deep dive of psychoanalysis and grounded in the experiential / relational practice of Gestalt Therapy, I support you to get to know your parts—and appreciate the role they play in your survival.  

Accepting and integrating all aspects of ourselves moves us closer to knowing the “more than the sum of our parts” which is our essence . My role as a psychotherapist is to support you to connect with your inner witness and take small risks toward growth.

Online therapy is convenient and I appreciate how it extends the reach of my practice. Given the choice, I’d prefer to welcome your whole self into my small and cozy home office just a short walk from the Spadina subway station.
