Getting to know Toby Ford

Hi there, I'm Toby! To me, therapy is about having a space that’s just for you, where you don’t have to have it all figured out, and you don’t have to go through it alone. I show up as a real person in the room: curious and on your side. I believe growth happens when we feel safe enough to be honest, and supported enough to try something new. My focus Therapy for Women Facing Life's Most Difficult Seasons: self-worth, postpartum, perimenopause, menopause, anxiety, depression, and more. Guiding women to turn their wounds into wisdom! My approach I believe everyone deserves a space to feel seen, supported, and understood. I’m here to help people reconnect with their strengths, navigate challenges, and move toward a life that feels more aligned. My hope is that you feel safe, empowered, and truly heard in our work together. My communication style I'll listen closely, ask thoughtful questions, and offer honest, compassionate feedback to help you better understand yourself and the challenges you're facing. Sometimes that means exploring patterns from the past, and other times it means focusing on practical tools you can use right away. My journey to mental healthcare I went back to school at 50 years old because I knew I wanted to do work that truly made a difference in people's lives. Starting over later in life taught me that it's never too late to grow, change, or create a life that feels meaningful. My goals for you Together we'll identify the challenges that are keeping you stuck, clarify what you want your life to look like, and create realistic, meaningful goals that fit your values and lifestyle. I use evidence-based approaches to help you develop practical skills, gain insight into unhelpful patterns, and build confidence in your ability to navigate life.
