• Counselling

    The therapist walks alongside the client on their journey of insight and process. Through the study of contact between counsellor and client the two are working along the razor’s edge of relating. How things show up here in session can provide insights into patterns that might be reoccurring in the client’s life outside.

  • Embodiment

    Inviting a quietening of the busy mind allows for us to drop into the body. To reveal the powerful and intuitive knowledge held within. This modality brings curiosity to sensations and emotions that arise. Do they have a colour, shape, temperature? And most importantly what message might they carry with them? The body holds many answers, we just need to slow down and listen.

  • Mindfulness

    Just like the body needs attention so does our conscious mind. Dabaco’s training in meditation and yin yoga has greatly expanded his capacity to sit with what is. This is a powerful practice that helps clients clear the mental clutter, raise awareness to potential patterns and offer a new opportunity to journey along a different path forward.

What clients say

  • Dabaco’s incredibly caring approach helped me to feel safe to express myself authentically in a way I haven’t experienced with other therapists. I learned how to safely express anger and was able to talk freely about my alternative style of relating, without any judgement. I can see how our work together has positively affected all parts of my life.

  • I came so much more into my own. I went from someone who would feel alone and isolated in my queerness and it's relationship to spirituality to fully owning and embracing my queerness and allowing myself to explore my sensuality and sexuality with those who previously intimidated me.

    — Ezel

  • I think my perspective of myself has changed from working with Dabaco. Originally thinking I just fit into the 'gay' category, but I feel like there's so much more to the world of queer to deny certain aspects of human experience. It's a moving spectrum and being in one label is quite restricting where queer is much more powerful and freeing.
