Registered Psychotherapist

While studying clinical psychology abroad, I found myself drawn more to patients’ stories than to their symptoms. I was eager to understand the function those symptoms served in their lives and to explore the defenses and strategies they developed to make the world feel safer. Reading Freud’s work introduced me to the illuminating and ever-evolving world of psychoanalysis. My deep interests in philosophy, psychoanalysis, and art, along with my passion for working with a diverse range of individuals, led me to pursue a psychodynamic psychotherapy approach. My work is deeply influenced by Sigmund Freud, Otto Rank, Melanie Klein, Donald Winnicott, Wilfred Bion, Otto Kernberg, and many other psychoanalytic theorists.

Psychodynamic Therapy Toronto

Sessions with Bolour

Psychodynamic psychotherapy, to me, is about transforming the meaning you make of yourself and your place in the world. In our sessions, I work collaboratively with you to explore your challenges, emotions, and the layered meanings beneath them. Together, we aim to co-create new understandings that feel authentic and empowering. By gradually delving into your past experiences, internal narratives, and unconscious patterns, we create space for new stories to emerge, stories that can restore creativity, agency, and a deeper connection to yourself.
