Summer is here and the long, brutal winter is behind us. You might be someone who’s been unhappy with your relationship for a long time, but just didn’t have the energy to end it. Now that summer is here, you feel motivated to let go of what doesn’t work and maybe start something new, something […]
It’s summer, finally, and if you’re anything like me, you’ve come out of hibernation and are excited to be getting out there and enjoying everything that summer has to offer. Here in Toronto, we have an exciting summer to look forward to: the Women’s World Cup of soccer and the Pan Am games. The city […]
I’ve been following the news about all the recent shootings in the USA. I was particularly horrified by the targeting of Black church-goers in Charleston, South Carolina.

I work with victims […]
On so many occasions, I’ve heard people say that they can’t trust someone today because of something that another person did, in the past.

I’m really impressed by Caitlyn Jenner. So many of us walk around with a mask on, never letting anyone see our real self behind it. Caitlyn has finally taken off the mask; she has nothing to hide.
