Hello! We are bound to face challenges that can leave us feeling overwhelmed, uneasy, or lost. I can offer ways to build one’s awareness to uncover and gain more control over problematic concerns/patterns. I have a special interest in those struggling with Communication, Anxiety, Depression, ADHD, Career Counselling and Burnout. My approach is grounded within a compassionate, empathetic and a non-judgmental stance. Depending on you and your concerns, I can draw from various modalities and strategies within them. These include but are not limited to: CBT, DBT, SFT and ACT.

I’m a Family Systems Therapist who has been in practice since 1988. I work with men from a family of origin or a family systems approach. This means, in part, that I think of men and their emotional functioning within a systems framework. I think about how their sense of themselves, and their emotional function has been shaped by the relational dynamic of their friends and family, past and present. This then contributes to emotional health symptoms like depression.

I am a counselor and registered personal trainer who can combine mental health counseling with physical well-being. Our sessions will begin around understanding your present environment- what do we want to keep and what can we let go of. Next, what are you willing to try for your future as well as what has happened in your past. I combine my understanding of clinical practice philosophies (CBT, DBT, Narrative Therapy) with Indigenous mental health perspectives and strategies. I believe well-being is a practice. To sustain and nurture this practice does take some practice and help. My role is to hear where you are at, provide alternative perspectives on challenges, and provide potential solutions we can practice.

I aim to create a non-judgmental space where the relationship between client and counsellor is built on trust and mutual respect.

You’re in the driver’s seat, and I’m here to support and collaborate with you to find a path forward that truly fits who you are and what you need.

I specialize in supporting men navigating emotional regulation, anger, depression, anxiety, burnout, and relationship challenges. My clients often struggle with perfectionism, work pressure, identity and purpose questions, and the tension between independence and vulnerability.

My approach integrates CBT, EFT, and trauma-informed care to help clients build insight, develop practical coping strategies, and strengthen communication and relational skills. I provide a collaborative and culturally humble space for exploring identity, values, and patterns, with the goal of fostering resilience and meaningful change.

Men need better mental health support.

The weight of responsibility and lack of support can cause men to tough it out, leading to internal struggles and unaddressed mental health issues.

At The Stigman Group we address head-on the stigma surrounding men’s mental health – for men, by men.

We believe that strong, capable men are essential for a thriving society. By providing tailored support and empowering men to prioritize their mental well-being, we aim to help them reclaim their manhood with resilience, authenticity, and strength.

It’s time to break the stigma.

My name is Kristen, I work from a trauma informed & intersectional feminist lens, recognizing the influence gender, sexuality and socio-economic status and culture can have on our experiences. I am passionate to work with men as I believe that feminism is for everybody, and men are also harmed by the harms of patriarchy, toxic masculinity and gender norms/expectations. I am an lgbtq2s+ and poly-friendly/ethical-non monogamy counsellor and am very enthusiastic about challenging heteronormative culture.

In addition to the framework I have shared, I also hold additional training in:
– EMDR
– Internal Family Systems (IFS)
– Psychedelic Integration & Embodied Inquiry
– Gottman (relationship therapy)

Feel free to reach out via email for a consultation.
