      <image:caption>We can navigate the realities of life rather than struggle against them. Let’s reflect side by side on how you’ve navigated so far and where you want to be. Sometimes we learn to swim toward still waters; sometimes we must find stillness inside.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>My practice is dedicated to affirming the innate value present within every human, by embracing my authentic-self combined with professional skills and ethics. People describe me as warm, approachable, friendly, lighthearted, and casual. I invite you to show up to our session as you are, too. I hold space for individuals to process thoughts and feelings through gentle exploration, collaborative curiosity, and casual conversation. As a reflective surface for your experiences, we co-create an atmosphere that allows your natural insight and wisdom to provide guidance. I will offer information and techniques along the way to support your journey.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Meet Melody - Personal highlights</image:title>
      <image:caption>I was born in the Prairies and raised in BC, before settling in Ontario.  I’m a 1st generation Canadian and child of two courageous refugees. My previous career spanned 8 years in the insurance industry (GBA) supporting health &amp; wellness initiatives for employees and students through health insurance plan management, cost containment, financial planning, sales, and implementation. During this time I hosted educational presentations regarding insurance and mental health topics. Pre-pandemic, I was a yoga instructor. I loved teaching Hot Yoga and what I called  “Slow Power”, paired with good tunes.  Coco sits at my feet during therapy. I’m really proud of how well he drinks water!</image:caption>

      <image:caption>I’m Melody (she/her), a Registered Psychotherapist supporting clients virtually throughout Ontario. I hold space that is relaxed and informal where we can talk openly (unfiltered and unapologetically) to discover who you are, what you need, and decide how you want to move forward. I meet you with warmth, silliness, non-judgment, and a deep respect for cultural diversity. You are always the expert of your life. As we spend time, I will bear witness to your story and guide a collaborative curiosity about your experiences so far. Together we will navigate the landscape of your life.</image:caption>
