Do These Questions Sound Familiar?

Why do I feel so much shame about who I am?

How can I accept my true self when society expects me to be someone else?

How can I cope with the fear of being found out?

Who am I really, and why am I so confused about my identity?

How do I deal with the trauma from my past?

Confusion… shame… guilt… Enough!

You are not what happened to you. You are not who you were told you were to be. You are not your problematic, compulsive, or addictive behaviours. You are not the suffering that brings you here today.

But the impulse that brought you here today is good. Whether it’s because the suffering has become too great…

… the anxiety and depression are too overwhelming…

… the numbness and the deadness are paralyzing you…

… or the chaos of staying in relationships that don’t work, or the compulsions and addictions are costing too much – whatever brought you here is welcome, because it got you here!

Hi, I’m Frank.

I’m Not Here to Fix You

Hah! No way!
I’m not going to be another in a long line of well-meaning people, institutions, religions, movements, relatives, and whoever else that tells you who you are. Together, we’ll discover your true self, dismantle the false self, and create an Amazing Space for your best self to emerge.

It may hurt sometimes, but the pain won’t last — and you’ll be proud of your bravery.

The Truth About Shame
No anger. No asking for anything. No shame. No defiance. No seeking permission.
Just a deep knowing in your body, acceptance, and joy — which, of course, is everything.

Your true self is buried alive in the wreckage of your past. Buried alive. Not dead.

You’re Not Broken
You are not your suffering. You are not your trauma. You are not your compulsions or coping strategies. You are not the silence you’ve endured. You were told to be less — but you were always whole.

Who I Am
I’m Frank, a licensed psychotherapist in Ontario with a Master of Divinity and extensive training in addictions, trauma healing, and couples therapy.

You are not alone. I’ve walked the same path, struggling with identity and acceptance. I’m here to help you reclaim your pride — and end self-sabotage.
