As a registered clinical counsellor, my style has been described as warm, nonjudgmental, and collaborative. I work with men and people of any gender who experience suicidality, addictions, depression, anxiety, relationship struggles, and a range of traumas. I am energized to work alongside folks who seek to live in alignment with their values. I use multiple modalities (ACT, DBT, parts work / IFS, and more) which are empirically supported, trauma-informed and respect your autonomy and choice. Many of my clients navigate disability and chronic pain. In working together, we will support you in building skills and new patterns on your chosen path of growth and change. I currently offer sliding scale/reduced rates.

I take a holistic, mind-body approach in my practice and work to develop an awareness of how our nervous system plays a key role in regulating our emotions and internal state. I integrate aspects of both talk and body-based interventions to best support healing.

I specialize in; anxiety, trauma, stress, burnout, relationship issues, athletic & sports performance, and emotional regulation.

I draw primarily from polyvagal-informed therapy to support emotional and nervous system regulation, helping clients build resilience and cultivate safety in their bodies. I integrate somatic practices to encourage deeper body awareness and facilitate healing, and utilize EMDR to process past trauma and rewire unhelpful patterns.

I am humbled to have been working in the helping field since 2003. During this time, I have walked alongside many people as they navigate life, deal with hardships, and persevere. I see my role in supporting you as holding space for your hurt and distress while also assisting you in finding the change you hope to see within yourself and the relationships around you. I strive to create a partnership of trust and support and to shine a light on your strength and capacity. Typically, people come to see me because life is hard, but counselling does not need to be. I infuse our time together with hope, and laughter. A little bit about me is that I am a partner, father, weekend athlete and outdoor enthusiast.
