Self-Harming Therapists in Guelph, ON

Sometimes everything can feel like too much. How do we carry everything that’s happened to us and keep going? How do we process who we were and what we’ve experienced at the same time that we’re trying to grow towards the future? I will help you hold it all as we work through things. My approach is guided by you: the client. Together we will co-create a space that feels safe and expansive, for you to explore at your own pace. Like many people, I live at the intersection of many identities—what are you coming in with? What can we explore together? Therapy offers a space to figure out where you're going and how you want to get there.

Change starts with the relationship that we form in the therapy and then continues by building useful skills in and outside of our sessions. In practice this means that I fit best with clients who are interested in (1) understanding more about their thoughts and emotions while also (2) taking clear steps to improve their mental and physical well-being. My job as the therapist is to provide a warm and caring environment to support the client in this process.

You are constantly walking on eggshells. Always on high alert, your highly sensitive brain is always scanning other people's expressions to make sure everything is okay. You over-apologize, over-explain, over-share or disconnect and push your emotions deep down. You feel different - too emotional, too “much”. A sense of loneliness and longing for something you can’t describe looms in the background of everything you do. No matter what you try the feeling that there’s “something wrong with you” just won’t let up. You try to feel better - you have journaled, meditated, tried therapy, medication, breathwork…but nothing helps for long.
