Pragmatic and Solution Oriented. First, I clear up any vague or unclear treatment goals or confusions. Before assuming that there is a problem based on faulty thinking, I review the basic life situation to make sure that basic human needs are being met. I take into account any impulses and direction that come from the deeper, more authentic Self (psycho-spiritual issues). When indicated, I will work with dreams, metaphor, and imagination. On a good day, I help people make the necessary changes to their inner and outer worlds, so their goals are met.

I enjoy working with men to explore their personal narratives and how these stories have influenced their sense of identity and emotional wellbeing. I offer a unique multi-cultural perspective, influenced by work experience and living abroad. This mindset paired with a trauma-informed practice allows me to create a safe space for therapeutic change. I enjoy working with men with diverse experiences and identities from all walks of life to explore how internal narratives may be impacting mental wellbeing. My goal is to create an environment that feels safe and inspires growth.

Counselling helps us unearth our internal compass, also called our inner intelligence, intuition, or higher self, so that we can relearn how to trust ourselves again. This is important work. Together, I will help you develop your capacity to respond to life’s circumstances and manage the discomfort that you are experiencing. Our pain, anxiety, sadness, love, and joy all have important information for us. They can reveal what is required of us to heal, grow, and even thrive.

My counselling services are collaborative, culturally responsive, and trauma-informed while rooted in a holistic approach (body/mind/spirit). I draw from various theoretical lenses, including Existential, Adlerian, Internal Family Systems, Jungian, DBT, and CBT.

Everyone struggles with something. We can’t control every thought, feeling, or body sensation we have, but we can find ways to create balance and choice in our lives. In sessions, you can expect to develop skills to help you understand yourself with compassion, while keeping “who you are” at the centre of the process.
I prioritize developing clarity, trust, and respect in our work, so that counselling can act as a stabilizing and supportive presence in your life. I work from an integrative approach, drawing from a selection of research-supported theories like ACT, EFIT, and narrative therapy. My work is also informed by the 12 years I worked in international and Olympic rugby, helping athletes make difficult decisions under pressure.

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.

I am a therapist who wants to help you, in the way that works for you, and at the pace that works for you. I seek to create a safe, calm, and open place for you to explore what is really going on. I have lived a richly experienced life – and I know first hand what it’s like to be in a difficult place. I believe that my broad life experience – with both positive and many negative experiences – gives me an exceptional ability to understand, empathize with, and inspire the clients I work with.

I use a multifaceted approach to therapy including EFT, CBT, MI, NVC, and more – what does that mean? I will be able to connect and work with you in the way that works for you.

I work with men experiencing difficult problems. Such problems go by many names, and may be new or old, but all share the common trait of stubbornly obstructing our happiness. Yet despite the hardship they cause, our problems also carry essential insight about what is needed for their resolution. I work with you to reveal these insights, to gather their wisdom, and to transform them into opportunities for greater well-being and engagement with life. You can visit my website to easily book a free, unhurried conversation about the problems you’re experiencing, and the life you’d like to live. We’ll talk about ways to help you move toward that life, using approaches that feel natural, intuitive, and possibly even exciting.

You don’t have to carry this all on your own. I’m a Registered Clinical Counsellor offering a space of refuge and belonging for men navigating shame, stress, disconnection, and self-doubt. If you feel stuck in emotional or relational patterns, overwhelmed or shut down inside, longing for connection but unsure how to feel safe in it – you’re not alone.

My practice is grounded in attachment theory, interpersonal neurobiology, and self-compassion. I work beyond traditional talk therapy by engaging the body and mind to support clients in moving beyond survival patterns into a more connected sense of self. While I support many queer and questioning clients, my practice is open to all men. A free consult is here for you when the time is right.
