I specialize in the assessment and treatment of adult ADHD and PTSD, and generalize in the treatment of most mental health disorders. I utilize an integrative and transdiagnostic approach to mental health treatment which incorporates a biopsychosocial view of the individual. I enjoy focusing on increasing good health behaviours by understanding the relationship between life experiences, socialization, stress, and current functioning. My goal is to work with the client in making tangible and meaningful life changes as well as gaining a good understanding and perspective into what drives their behaviours, emotions, thoughts, and physiological processes.

Hi, I’m Sylvia and I’m so glad you’re here! I believe at some point or another, we’ve all experienced something that has changed our life. That’s why it’s important within my practice to develop a space where you feel safe and supported. I want to create a strong therapeutic alliance, one where you have a voice and a place to be your true, authentic self. Everyone has the capacity to be resilient and I want our sessions to foster this inner strength. Our time together is ultimately your time. Since effective therapy doesn’t take a one-size-fits-all approach, I offer cognitive-behavioural therapy, DBT, EMDR, ART, narrative therapy, sand tray therapy and much more according to your needs.

Making the decision to ask for help is hard, being a man and asking for help is even harder. The expectations of masculinity have changed- I know I’ve lived it! I am a father, husband, friend and professional who is navigating these expectations-to be a protector and provider, a partner and mentor, an empathetic listener and a high-five celebrator.

My greatest learning is that vulnerability is strength, sharing is courage, and understanding yourself is vital. I will meet you where you are and together, we will figure out what will work for you. I have experience working with depression, anxiety, substance abuse, relationship, career change, divorce/separation, parenting, anger, and trauma (workplace/childhood). Let’s talk.
