Compassion Acceptance Hope

Hannah+Mackley

Hello I’m Hannah.

I’m a counsellor and psychotherapist as well as a registered social worker. However, I might better be described as….

Warm, accepting and open.

Hopeful.

A believer in the capacity of our minds and bodies to heal.

Passionate about discovering our truest self and the strengths we each possess.

More about me

Starting therapy can be daunting. That is why I offer a free, no-pressure consultation so that you can figure out if it is the right step for you.

I provide virtual services to those living in Ontario, giving you the flexibility to access support from wherever suits you.

I am here to walk alongside you. I want to extend an invitation to join me.

Follow our journey.
