I am often struck by how challenging being in relationship can be, both with ourselves and with others. Yet, in my work with couples and individuals I have seen that when we join with others in exploring these challenges, we can develop a greater capacity to appreciate what sets us apart while nourishing connection. I also believe that relationships are expansive and include the ones we have with past or different parts of ourselves, people who are no longer with us or never were, people we hope to meet or become, and even with substances, places, objects, bodies, and identities.

From time to time many of us find ourselves struggling with our thoughts, emotions, and inner experiences. This can be described as an “inner voice” which is often: worrying, judging, analyzing and criticizing. It’s the one that tells us we aren’t good enough or that we are going to fail. This voice can become overwhelming and can even seem to take control over our thoughts. If you’ve ever experienced this, you are not alone. Together we can explore how to navigate difficult thoughts and emotions. This will lead to a better understanding of who you are, and create greater harmony in your life.

My approach to psychotherapy is based in the belief that we, as people, possess the strength and resources necessary to make positive, helpful changes in our lives. My goal is to help my clients develop solutions to the problems life can present, building resilience and coping skills, reconnecting with their values, and thinking critically (and compassionately) about their own distress processes. In other words: to develop their own compassionate inner-therapist. I strive to create a space with clients that is collaborative, accepting, non-judgmental, and authentic, which I view as essential to the therapeutic relationship.

Our struggles in life feel heavier and can be compounded by trying to navigate them alone. When we need help the most, having someone at your side who supports you can lighten the load. I am humbled to offer a listening ear and to be a person around whom many do not hesitate to be themselves and are comfortable sharing their deepest thoughts and struggles. I believe that everyone deserves the opportunity for self-discovery and growth.

Hello. I'm Robert Fierro, a registered social worker practicing as a psychotherapist on on the traditional and un-ceded territory of the Anishnaabeg nation. - I came to my practice as a result of a profound curiosity into how the mind copes with difficult experiences and I believe that we can come to a deeper and more integrated understanding of ourselves and each other by exploring these experiences in the present moment with a trusted partner. I can say with certainty this happens outside of therapy, and that at times therapy is a critical to the healing process.

Gender-based violence, restorative approaches and narrative therapy have led me to work internationally. Locally, I have spent 25 years working for a trauma-informed community-based organization and for the past fifteen I have also worked for the Canadian Armed Forces. Currently I continue to speak publicly and train others about domestic violence. I co-founded the Canadian Domestic Violence Conference when I saw a need to bring more light to the subject. I am available to help couples work through the damages caused by domestic violence as well as to help individuals repair the harm done to them so they can move forward.
