Testimonials

“Kirsti is a kind, caring, understanding therapist who has really helped me to understand autism - and therefore myself - more. I feel I can talk about anything with her - including things I would never say to anyone else, because it would hurt them. A real life saver.”

"Kirsti creates a very calm and welcoming environment which makes it easy to talk about any issue I am facing. Whether what I am wanting to talk about is large or small she is always tactful, respectful and empathetic when listening and or giving advice. I feel comfortable talking to them about a wide variety of topics whether it's neurodivergence, being queer and polyamorous, anxiety, depression, my history of substance abuse as well as past trauma. I always leave my sessions feeling better about whatever we talk about."

“Kirsti is a very kind and understanding therapist. She really listened and provided lots of great advice while giving me the necessary space to reach my own conclusions. I hugely benefited from my time with her and would recommend her to anyone needing support." 

”I have been working with Kirsti for just over a year now, and I have seen monumental changes in my everyday life, my work, and my relationships with people around me. Kirsti has a wonderfully supportive and reassuring presence. She is both an excellent listener and someone who offers useful, diplomatic, much needed advice. I have learned so much about myself and my childhood trauma, and learned to let go of so many fears and insecurities that have haunted me for decades. Kirsti is a fantastic LGBTQIA+ affirming counsellor and brings expert knowledge as a neurodiverse person. Over the last year with Kirsti I have learned to accept my own neurodiverse traits. Kirsti has helped me to make accommodations in my work and personal life that will last a lifetime.”

“I have been doing art therapy sessions with Kirsti for over a year now. I find these sessions very useful for processing what is current for me and areas of discomfort and confusion. Making art clarifies what I am experiencing and can serve as a visual anchor and reminder for me both during and after a session. Art making helps me access emotions and art therapy allows me to process feelings in my body in a way that talking therapy has not managed to in the past. Kirsti is very kind and open in her approach and she has an affirming attitude towards lgbtqia+ experience and alternative relationship styles, which makes me feel safe and seen.”
