ABOUT ISABEL DIAMOND
I’m a licensed psychotherapist and mental health educator.
I’ll be your collaborator, sounding board, and guide. I’ll offer empathy and support, while we work together to understand what’s happening. I’ll bring my years of experience and training to give you tools and a path for moving forward.
Before training as a therapist, I worked in tech (using psychology to design software that is easy to use). At the same time, I’ve studied psychology for decades. I started reading psychology books as a teenager, and did a career transition in my late 30s.
I welcome adults of all ages, races, gender identities, sexual orientations, and socioeconomic backgrounds. I'm Canadian, have traveled extensively, and appreciate diverse perspectives.
I work with many professionals, people who work in tech or other analytical jobs, entrepreneurs, and people in creative fields. I also connect well with folks who practice yoga, meditation, or have a spiritual practice. I work with people who have been in therapy before and people new to therapy. I welcome everyone to my practice.
My style is compassionate, active, and collaborative. I can give warm and straightforward feedback when it would be helpful.
