Are you experiencing overwhelming emotions, unwanted thoughts, challenging relationships, codependency, unhelpful habits or addiction? You are not alone. If you are feeling stuck in life, I can help by listening to your concerns and providing the support you need for anxiety and depression, grief, loss, transition, stress, addiction and codependency.

The primary modality I work from is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, however, I incorporate many elements into the work I do with clients depending on their needs.

I realize that the decision to start therapy can be terrifying and takes a lot of courage, believe me, I have been there myself. Contact me for a free 20-minute phone consultation.

It’s important to me that my clients feel like they walk away from counselling with something, whether that’s a new insight, a skill, or a different perspective on what is an issue for them. My approach is collaborative, direct, and fully guided by my clients.

I feel it’s important to acknowledge the hand you were dealt and consider upbringing, socioeconomic status, race, sexual orientation, and gender norms and how they play into your own experience.

I work in trauma, anxiety, depression, and I’m passionate about helping late discovered adults with ADHD and autism understand themselves better. Some therapeutic styles I employ include CBT, DBT, IFS (internal family systems), and narrative.

Online and in-person sessions available Saturday through Wednesday.

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.

For over 20 years, I’ve worked with men who carry more than most people will ever see — the weight of responsibility, pressure, loss, and anger that never quite finds a safe place to land. I’ve been in the helping profession since 1994, and my experience spans trauma, addiction, relationship breakdown, first responder burnout and compartmentalization, and the painful aftermath of reacting in ways that don’t reflect who you truly want to be.

Whether you’re working to manage anger, repair trust, or understand the roots of destructive patterns, therapy with me is about accountability without shame and healing without judgment. Together, we’ll work to uncover what’s driving your reactions, strengthen self-control, and help you rebuild from a place of integrity and calm strength.

No judgment. No jargon. Just real conversations that help you get back to yourself.

I am part of the Surrey Vitality Collective team and sessions with me can be booked via text at 855-425-4310‬.

Though the past can hold us back, it does not have to define us. The counselling I offer can help you process and integrate your past so that it doesn’t get so much in the way of you achieving what you want in life – whether that be progressing your life and career goals, deepening your relationships with others, processing grief and loss, becoming more confident in your personal identity, or managing and growing through depression, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress. I work to connect you with your emotions and build concrete skills that will help you thrive.
