about me
Joe White
MACP RP
Registered Psychotherapist
Welcome to Wings to Fly Counselling. My venture into psychotherapy has been shaped by diverse experiences and a profound commitment to personal growth and aiding others. As a Registered Psychotherapist, I hold a Master’s degree in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University, along with a Master’s in Applied Linguistics. These disciplines have profoundly influenced my professional life, granting me a deep insight into the human experience.
​
Initially, my journey led me overseas to Asia and Europe, where my teaching role transcended traditional boundaries. The one-on-one interactions with students—listening, observing, and imparting knowledge—revealed my true calling. This epiphany guided me towards counselling, allowing me to weave my experiences with culture, diversity, and education into a comprehensive therapeutic approach.
​
Life's journey is fraught with challenges and victories. Inspired by the dream of flight during my teaching days abroad, and through my own personal adversities, every step has enriched my practice. At Wings to Fly Counselling, I leverage these insights to assist you in overcoming life’s hurdles, promoting resilience through mindfulness, self-awareness, compassion, and development.
