About Mitchell


Hello! My name is Mitchell, and I am here to help. As more and more people begin to explore their mental health, I aim to support their journey into the unknown and help them navigate the internal workings of their thoughts, feelings, and emotions, including those that may not yet make sense. I want to help people accept themselves, even as they continue to venture closer to their ideal selves. Through this process, I believe that many overwhelming, uncomfortable, and even painful feelings can be eased and unwanted behaviours can be changed.


I am here as a guide and a collaborator, helping you explore who you are and where you want to be!


I offer a warm, collaborative space where we can slow things down and make sense of what feels confusing. I work with anxiety, relationships, life transitions, self-worth, athletic performance, and identity, helping my clients build insight, challenge unhelpful patterns, and create meaningful change at a pace that feels right for them.


Starting therapy can feel like a big step, and you do not need to have everything figured out before reaching out. If you’re curious about working together, I’d be happy to connect, answer your questions, and see whether I feel like the right fit for what you’re seeking. No pressure, just a conversation. Feel free to book a free 15-minute consultation with me, using the link on this page.


Therapy with Mitchell


After learning about your presenting concern(s) and getting to know you, we will begin collaborating on a few different pathways to address what you’ve brought into session. Every step of the way, you will be a primary part of your treatment plan, and no decision will be made without your input and a frank conversation around why certain modalities or interventions are being used. Ultimately, we will be combining my academic and professional experience with your knowledge of yourself and how you think, work, and change. As I come to learn how you operate, I can better point out your strengths and patterns, especially those you may be too close to yourself to see clearly.


Mitchell’s Story


My path to becoming a therapist has been shaped by people and stories. Growing up in Toronto meant growing up in a melting pot of cultures and socioeconomic backgrounds. It taught me early on that two people can experience the same world in completely different ways, and that insight has stayed with me.


Before becoming a therapist, I worked as an actor, where I became fascinated by the stories people tell and the roles we slip into. Later, working in social services, I met people navigating incredibly difficult moments with resilience that often went unnoticed.


I also know what it feels like to feel trapped in your own mind and body, when thoughts and emotions seem impossible to make sense of. Learning to recognize the often-invisible patterns that shape our inner world showed me that what often feels overwhelming, can become understandable. That experience deepened my love for narrative therapy and my belief that even ordinary moments can shape our reality, and that understanding our story can create room for relief, choice, and change.
