mindfulness for life.
kind therapy, effective therapy.
The essence of mindfulness
is learning to relate to yourself
with kindness.
In a war against yourself
there is no way to win.
This is a different strategy.
mindful therapists in Toronto
Mindfulness-based therapy is more than a technique. A skilled therapist shares in a unique process with you that is grounded in their ability to be present and authentic.
A mindfulness approach involves connecting to what’s actually happening in the here-and-now, opening to things as they are. This is where new possibilities can be found and new experiences can happen.
Instead of automatic reactions of judgment, control or avoidance, we try to slow down together, get curious, bring warmth – and let you reconnect with who you are. In this way it is possible to feel at home in our own bodies and our minds – even in times of pain and confusion.

it's all welcome
People with diverse experiences and identities are welcome here. We love to work with creatives, queer and trans people, neurodivergent and culturally diverse people, frontline workers and trauma survivors.
Talk to us if you think you are too smart for therapy, too weird to be understood, or too hopeless to move forward.
We hold space to honour racialized trauma, ecological despair, and other kinds of pain it can be difficult to hold alone.
We specialize in therapy that is intelligent, imaginitive, and deeply felt
Our therapists have a common interest in therapies that are creative and experiential, including somatic therapies like Sensorimotor, Polyvagal and Somatic Experiencing; mindfulness-based therapies like ACT and IFS; and psychodynamic therapies that explore relationships, attachment and deep reflection.
what to expect in therapy
Psychotherapy research shows that it’s important to find a therapist who will *get* you.
Get started in therapy with a free introductory consultation with a therapist. This call will help you get a feel for whether you think the therapist is someone you connect with. We will take 10-20 minutes to briefly go over what’s bringing you to therapy, and you can ask any questions you have before getting started.
