I have been providing counselling support to men living with depression, anxiety, PTSD, addictions, sleep, chronic pain, and relationship issues since 2010. I provide individual therapy using a variety of modalities including cognitive behavioural, strengths-based, and trauma-informed therapies that honor your strengths and experiences. I work with many veterans and current military members. I offer a variety of specialized therapies empirically validated to treat trauma. Many of my clients are dealing with and learning to manage chronic pain.

Through my work, I realized how much pressure people experienced in their day-to-day lives and the effects this had on their relationship with themselves and others. Through my therapeutic work, I observed the consequences of society placing such a strong emphasis on perfectionism, a hyper-vigilance on “fixing” oneself, and external merit. Seeing adults, teens, and children struggling to understand their identity, self-worth, and values motivated me to gain expertise in various therapeutic modalities. My areas of focus include anxiety, depression, and trauma, self-worth, identity, and relationships, and narrative as well as mindfulness approaches.

People are unique individuals with unique experiences. We all bring distinct histories and concerns to therapy. I respect your story and your concerns, and will provide support in a way that will work for you.
Therapeutic approaches will incorporate a variety of principles and concepts to create the ideal therapy for clients. This is meant to meet client’s specific needs and address individual challenges. This holistic approach includes CBT, EMDR, Internal Family Systems, mindfulness, among others.
Holistic healing addresses various aspects of our lives that are often intertwined-physical health, mental health, social well-being, spiritual well-being, career concerns, etc. and incorporates research-based techniques and traditional wisdom.

If you feel like you keep running into the same wall — the same fights, the same stress, the same habits that you promised yourself you’d break — you’re not alone. A lot of men carry the weight silently and think they should “just figure it out” on their own, but that pressure is exactly what keeps everything bottled up.
My work focuses on helping men understand why these patterns keep repeating, and how to get unstuck without shame or judgment. Whether it shows up as stress, anger, anxiety, shutdown, relationship strain, or feeling like you’re not living up to your own potential, there is always something underneath the surface that is asking to be understood. You don’t need to have the perfect words or a polished story — you just need a place where you don’t have to keep pretending everything is fine.
I am part of the Surrey Vitality Collective team and sessions with me can be booked via text at 855-425-4310.

I integrate evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Emotion-Focused Therapy to help clients develop insight into their challenges, build emotional resilience, and create change. Above all, I aim to provide a safe, non-judgmental space where clients feel genuinely seen, supported, and empowered in their healing.

There are times in life when each one of us will encounter challenges or difficult situations. In those times, it takes courage to reach out and ask for help, but we are all in this together, and there is help here. Being of service to another human being and finding a way to help is a privilege I am grateful for whenever it is presented to me. My goal is to do just that, to help my clients find a way to work through the challenges of life in a way that best suits who they are in a safe, non-judgmental and collaborative approach. You already have everything you need to be happy and overcome the obstacles life has put in your way. My job is to help you discover and develop those strengths.

I have worked successfully with a lot of men in my practice. I understand how hard it can be for men to seek help. At the same time I know from experience that there’s tremendous benefit involved for those men who take that first step. My counselling approach is about compassion and non-judgement. Whatever is happening for you will be accepted and faced together. From a stance of respect and an underlying core belief that you have the wisdom within you to overcome your challenges, I will support you in recognizing and engaging powerful resources both within you and around you. Counselling theories and methodologies I use include Mindfulness and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.

Our biggest moments of crisis, when supported with care, consciousness, and insight, are in fact our greatest sources of personal growth and transformation. I help individuals to strengthen the resources they have within themselves, learn to navigate challenging and uncomfortable emotions and life experiences, and build resiliency to navigate through tough times. As you begin to more consciously navigate life’s ebbs and flows, I support you in moving towards a more comfortable, content and meaningful life.
