My name is Connor Mounce and I see you. It can be so easy to lose ourselves in this life, so let’s find the path to your best self. My hope is that we can help you see the incredible human that so many see around you.

Throughout my life I have fought a war to see the person that so many people tell me that I am, and in this I have learned how to navigate the narrow path between who we feel we are, and who we portray to the world. After 30 years, I have finally found a balance, and I can honestly say, that is possible for you as well.

Young people have such an incredible weight on their shoulders growing up in a world that is so unforgiving to our mistakes. In this world we don’t even give our youths the chance to make a single one. Walking alongside youth on their journeys has helped me understand this weight, and allows me to hold space for young people to be who they are, unapologetically.

When I first started on my journey to helping others, I left my work in the trades to become a human service worker, a change that saved my life. But this also allowed me to better understand the difficulties so many face when it comes time to pursue the best version of ourselves. Especially when that goes against what society expects of us. As a young man, I can also empathize with the incredible difficulty that comes with connecting with the emotions these struggles bring up, with being vulnerable, and opening up to allow others to see these things. You are not alone in that feeling.

It is an honour to be a part of The Confidants. Wherever you may be on your self discovery journey, I look forward to having the opportunity to walk alongside you and help you find the person you want to be, in a safe, judgment free space.
