Welcome
inkling
that inner whisper that says, “I need some help.”
You
Welcome to Psykling, a practice that follows your inkling — that inner whisper that says, “I need some help,” and brings you here.
Me
I followed my own inkling, too, on a journey that led me from environmental engineering to becoming a psychotherapist. Read more on the About page.
We
We take time to understand what you're going through, explore your emotions, and discover what matters to you. Through this experience, we can explore how the different parts of yourself — your thoughts, feelings, behaviours, and values — can come into greater harmony, helping you become a more integrated person who lives more authentically.
What We Can Work on Together
Anxiety and Overthinking
When your mind won't slow down.
Relationships and Emotional Intimacy
Understanding yourself and connecting with others.
Life Transitions and Personal Growth
Finding your way through change.
Men's Mental Health

What Our Work Looks Like
Integrative
Therapy that adapts to you.
Our approach adapts to you. We continuously learn what resonates with you and adjust our approach and tools to make therapy more effective for you.
Emotionally Informed
Making sense of what you feel.
How you feel helps guide our work. Together, we explore your emotions with curiosity, make sense of what they tell you, and discover what feels right for you.
Empathic and Honest
Genuine support, with room for gentle challenges.
A space where you can share difficult thoughts and feelings, be met with empathy and genuine support, and sometimes be gently challenged to see things from a different perspective.
Collaborative Exploration
Your curiosity and insights help lead the way.
This isn't a classroom or a place to simply receive advice. Your curiosity and insights help lead our exploration, supporting you in becoming more confident and independent in navigating your life's journey.

Frequently Asked Questions
A few things people often wonder about before starting therapy.
How do I know if we're the right fit?
If something on this website or in my introduction video resonates with you, let's book a free consultation. That's where we can begin to find out.
During our conversation, we'll talk about what brings you to therapy, what you hope to achieve, and what working together might look like.
Afterwards, ask yourself: Did I feel genuinely heard and understood? Did the conversation help me make better sense of my situation or what I want to work toward? Does my gut feeling tell me I'd like to continue exploring my story together?
If so, that's a good sign that we have a foundation to build a trusting, comfortable therapeutic relationship.
How long will therapy take, and when will I start seeing results?
The duration of therapy varies from person to person, depending on your needs, goals, and circumstances. There is no magic number of sessions that leads to change.
Sometimes, change begins with small shifts in how you understand yourself, your emotions, or your experiences. Over time, these insights may help you approach situations differently and become more confident in your ability to make meaningful changes in your life.
Do you accept insurance, and how does payment work?
I provide receipts that you can submit to your insurance company for reimbursement. Many extended health benefit plans cover psychotherapy services provided by a Registered Psychotherapist (RP). However, coverage varies depending on your plan, so I recommend checking with your insurance provider beforehand.
What if I don't know what to talk about in therapy?
That's completely normal. You don't need to have everything figured out or know exactly what to say. We can start by asking thoughtful questions and bringing our curiosity together to explore what brought you here.
Sometimes, after years of suppressing or setting aside our emotions, we may find it difficult to express what we feel or put our experiences into words. All we know is that something doesn't feel quite right or needs our attention. This inner knowing can be the starting point of our journey together, helping us gradually discover what needs to be understood, explored, and healed.
Shall we explore together?
You don't need to have everything figured out to begin. If something here resonates with you, let's start with a free 20-minute consultation and see where our conversation takes us.
