Meet Jupiter

Jupiter is welcoming, accepting and works with a lot of clients from the LGBTQ+ community. Before becoming a therapist, many of his friends went to him with their troubles. He found that he liked talking to people, it didn't feel like work, which led him to become a therapist. He grew up in a very progressive family and the first wedding he went to was for a lesbian couple. A big part of Jupiter's practice is holding space for his clients and letting them know that they are normal and healthy.

My clients often self-identify as…
  • People with relationship issues, including with themselves.
  • People with challenging family members or work environments.
  • Teens and young adults.
  • People who struggle to feel that they are enough, often in their 30's or 40's.
  • LGBTQ+
I’m the right therapist for you if…
  • You are feeling worried, sad, or frustrated, but you don't know what to do with those feelings or feel that you shouldn't have them at all
  • You find the idea of stereotypical therapy intimidating, formulaic, or unappealing
  • You would like to talk to a neutral professional about what is going on in your life, without expectations or judgement
  • You want to feel that you are speaking with a fellow human being, rather than being spoken down to by an "expert" from some lofty perch of moral or intellectual enlightenment.

If we work together you can expect to feel...
  • That you are the best judge of what is the most relevant therapy topic to delve into first, and I will always be honest with you if I have a differing idea or hypothesis as we work towards that goal.
  • Surprised by the other feelings which could be hidden behind the exhausted, fearful, or angry ones which lead you to seek therapy to begin with.
  • That you might gradually start to have feelings of warmth and acceptance towards yourself, as you see it directed towards you in sessions.
  • That beliefs you had about yourself or your behaviours are much more malleable than they originally seemed.
  • Changes over time in the way you feel day to day, and how others around you observe you as well.
  • More confident, comfortable, and even proud of the person you are - and everything you have gone through to become that person.
