I provide therapy for adults and youth struggling with depression, anxiety, symptoms of trauma, and feeling directionless and purposeless in life. Having previously worked as a journalist, janitor, construction worker and kids’ camp counsellor, I know what it’s like to take time finding your way in life. I also understand the stigma around receiving mental health services and strive to provide confidential counselling. I tend to use evidenced-based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT). I also employs a client-centred approach to therapy, prioritizing efficient and effective therapy.

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.

It takes courage, reflection, and a few calming breaths to reach out for support when difficult life circumstances present themselves. Taking the important first step starts the journey toward applying new ways of approaching personal and relational difficulties. We will walk together in a collaborative relationship, test new skills that we learn along the way, and explore the possibilities!

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.

Many of my clients feel worried that others don’t like them, and are scared to speak up in their relationships. They’ve spent a long time silencing what they really think and feel inside because they’re afraid they’ll be rejected if they share their full selves with others. I help clients understand and change the underlying patterns keeping them stuck. You can build confidence managing emotions, setting boundaries and having more of what you want in relationships. You can accept and even like who you are and have the confidence to make changes in your life that bring satisfaction at work, connection and closeness in relationships, and trust yourself to get through the hard things.

I believe that everyone is the expert of their own lives, and have within them everything they need in order to make positive change in their lives, but sometimes we need someone to come alongside us and help us get there.

By looking through the past and present, by exploring and processing thoughts, emotions, and behaviours, we can identify the areas of distress and find meaningful ways to better engage with ourselves, our relationships, and our environment.

I have a relational approach to counselling and I comfortably draw from a variety of modalities including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Emotion Focused, and Mindfulness. I have experience with anxiety and depression, grief, trauma, and addiction.
