Empathy and curiosity are two qualities I will use as I listen to your story. Together we will learn, explore and figure out a way forward.

I practice from an emotion focused approach and work primarily with young adults and adults.

Stuck? Lost? Broken? Disconnected? Powerless? Hopeless? Many men wait too long to seek help for the challenges they face. You may not feel safe talking with others, particularly if you have experienced trauma, abuse, anxiety, addition, grief, or shame. Often, even those they are closest to you may understand or know the depth of your pain. You may feel that you are burdening others with your problems, and may have tried to solve your issues on your own, often leading deeper struggles and, at times, greater loss and pain.

You've taken the first step in reaching out for help and I'm so proud of you! I know how scary this can be so my goal is to offer you an open and down-to-earth atmosphere where you can feel free to talk about anything at all. The past few years have been difficult for us all. Many people are feeling burnt out, irritable, emotional or just overwhelmingly tired. You are not alone.

I am looking for motivated clients who are willing to take action to resolve whatever needs to change in their life. My typical clients are looking for relief from stress, anxiety, depression, negative emotions, or difficult life situations. Some of them are struggling with compulsive behaviours and feel out of control. Others are in a relationship but things are not as good as they can be and they want more. Some of my clients are just looking to talk to someone who listens well, validates them and gives them another perspective. Sometimes they feel stuck and need tools, support and encouragement to help them move forward.

**Accepting New Clients** I believe that the pain each man goes through is unique to his issues but is not dissimilar from the pain other men experience. Most men are taught about what feelings are acceptable to feel and in what situations it is acceptable to feel them. This can lead to men hearing phrases such as “toughen up”, “be strong” or “don’t cry”. Some men will say “I’m alright” when answering questions about their well being when they really aren’t “alright”. I believe such phrases and answers must be challenged. Every man deserves to be heard and have his feelings acknowledged. Together, we will work towards that goal.

Spring 2024 - Accepting New Clients - Hello, my name is Hannah. I am a Registered Social Worker (RSW) with the OCSWSSW. I support individuals experiencing stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem and life changes using a trauma-informed approach. I am also able to help people navigate relationships and establish effective communication skills. This includes working with couples who are looking for support. Whether you are looking for individual or couple's sessions, I am happy to chat about your goals and support you on your journey to wellness.

You may be feeling stuck, overwhelmed, unsupported or unheard. I am committed to co-creating a supportive environment where you can open up and experience your feelings, without judgement. During life transitions, stressful events, and times of low self esteem we all need a place to discuss our emotions and thoughts freely, while also learning tools to manage these feelings and hopefully to reduce their frequency. Therapy is challenging but you are not alone in this journey for your health. I treat the therapeutic relationship as a collaborative and joint effort to help improve.

Accepting new clients! Congratulations on starting your healing journey! Therapy through natural conversation with an experienced, relatable and personable counsellor can make your experience feel less isolating and daunting. This is your safe space to express yourself fully and understand that you are never alone in working through your life challenges.
