In my practice, I’ve had the privilege of working with a wide range of men from top performers and working professionals and leaders, to post-secondary students, artists and sensitive souls facing a variety of life’s challenges. I have a particular empathy for the unique challenges and pressures that many men face these days. As a counselling psychologist, I can help you recognize any unhealthy patterns/dynamics that might not be serving you, and help you learn ways of addressing these to support greater wellbeing and satisfaction in your life.

Accepting NEW Clients (Individuals and Couples) – Are you feeling “stuck” in life and you’re looking for a way to better understand the steps forward? Have you heard of EMDR and you want to learn more about working through trauma and its impacts on your life? Is anxiety, stress, or low mood something you want to explore and learn strategies to cope differently? Are you a couple looking to work through infidelity, sexuality, or just simply want the skills to better communicate and understand each other?
I work with individuals and couples, where I also consider the impact of trauma and culture in the issues you’re looking to be supported with.

We all get stuck, stumble, and struggle in life but we do better with the right support at the right time. I was born & raised in rural Alberta and grew up playing sports, getting by in school, & working labour intensive jobs (mostly in the oilfield), before and during my University education. I currently work full-time in private practice with a group of experienced psychologists, providing psychotherapy and formal assessment to school aged children, adolescents, & adults, with a specialized focus in traumatic stress, & couples/family therapy (including separated/divorced families). For nearly 10yrs I’ve facilitated a drop-in men’s support group at Momentum Counselling. I am passionate about supporting people to heal, cope, & thrive.
