Hey, I'm Stacey and I'm Glad You're Here.
I believe the relationship between you and your therapist is essential. I’m hoping some of the information on this page helps you determine if we may be the right fit, but I also offer FREE 20-minute consultations if you want to meet and ask any questions before getting started with therapy!
Chronic Illness Therapist Guelph
Get to Know Your Therapist
I’m an avid reader, oat milk latte aficionado, and elder emo. I love concerts, and I believe strongly in the healing power of music – more specifically the community that can be found in the love and support of your favourite bands/artists.
I’ve been a baker since I can remember – I even have a whisk tattoo! My long-term goal is to be able to incorporate baking into my therapy work by offering workshops and potentially individual sessions that use baking as a mindfulness tool.
