Therapy that feels human. Real talk, the occasional swear, and zero judgment. This isn’t therapy for the polite version of you. It’s a space for the stuff you can’t say out loud anywhere else. We’ll unpack the truth, question the patterns, and make space for what’s real, so you can meet yourself without filters.
You might be feeling overwhelmed, exhausted from holding it all together, or like you’re carrying too much on your own. I specialize in anxiety, trauma, addiction, and questions around identity, gender, and sexuality. I offer LGBTQ+ affirming therapy and support for trans and non-binary clients, but this space is for anyone wanting honest, real therapy.
No scripts. No therapy voice. No judgment. I bring warmth, humour, honesty, and a bit of edge. We’ll call out patterns, face uncomfortable truths, and build coping strategies that work in your real life. If therapy has felt too clinical or surface-level before, we’ll do it differently here. If this sounds like what you've been looking for, let's connect.
