My name is Toby Rader, as a Narrative Therapist I believe that people are multi-storied. I am most interested in exploring the narrative's that make up your story. Whether that is re-membering those you have lost through crafting a new relationship with grief or engaging in an externalizing conversation about depression & anxiety. I work alongside individuals, couples and families, primarily focusing on adults and elders. I am a neurodivergent person (Autism) and parent. My Autism diagnosis came late in my life. I aim to create a neurodiverse affirming practice,
Specializing in Grief and Loss and Neurodiverse Affirming Care

I know Toby and am impressed with his determination and capacity to be an excellent therapist. He is congruent and transparent in his relationships with colleagues and clients. However, what I value most is his compassion for those with whom he counsels.
