I have experience working with children, youth, and adults, in both individual and couple settings. I believe in tailoring my counselling sessions to meet the unique and individualized needs of each client, specifically with a holistic approach by taking into consideration sociocultural factors that may be impacting your well-being. My treatment approach typically includes Person-Centered Therapy, Feminist Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Strengths-Based Therapy. My approach encourages you to engage in continuous self-reflection and self-exploration, specifically by having you reflect on your core values and seeing if it aligns with your daily actions and habits. I am dedicated to creating a supportive environment.

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.

I provide online therapy using evidence-based practices to help individuals learn better skills to help them gain control over their thoughts, emotions, and behaviours, and to live more successful lives. The focus of my approach is change-oriented and compassion-driven. Assessments are done at the beginning to best understand the individual and plan for helpful, change-oriented conversations. Remote therapy only.

Welcoming men, women, and teen clients, I focus on helping them discover, or re-discover, their own joy and meaning in life while equipping them with the tools to sustain it. I use an Acceptance and Commitment Therapy-based approach while drawing on other techniques including Existential Theory, Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, and DBT. With a genuine passion for helping others live their most fulfilled lives, I am committed to guiding clients toward greater self-understanding, resilience, and emotional well-being. My other passion is high-level athletes and sports performance psychology. I also offer Psychoeducational Assessments for children and adults as well as Adult ADHD Assessments. You deserve to find joy every day.

Men today often encounter many tragic messages of self-blame. Even other therapists can fall into the trap of using negative or shaming language such as the “toxic masculinity” narrative. I abhor and avoid such messages. In contrast, I work from a strengths-based approach that prioritizes dignity and unconditional positive regard. I provide support for many concerns such as anxiety, depression, self-esteem, grief, relationship breakdown and divorce, domestic abuse victimization, and more. I work primarily using CBT, ACT, and person-centred modalities.

My approach involves understanding your unique circumstances, building a strong and trusting relationship, applying proven interventions and practical solutions to the problems, and using direct feedback to increase awareness of blind spots. I work with clients to address immediate challenges and to identify and treat the root causes for lasting change. My style has been described as warm, validating, and honest with a dash of humor.

I help clients achieve their goals by introducing practical strategies and skills while simultaneously working through the causes of issues. This may involve re-evaluating your thinking, improving your understanding of your emotions, finding life-direction, resolving internal conflicts, or making peace with past experiences. Everyone’s needs are different, so I will work with you to create a personalized treatment approach.

I practice an integrative therapeutic approach that draws from various evidence-based modalities to create a customized treatment plan for each individual. By combining elements of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), practicality, and client-centered techniques, I aim to provide a safe and collaborative space for clients to explore their challenges, develop coping strategies, and work towards personal growth and healing. My approach is rooted in empathy, respect, and a commitment to helping clients achieve their therapeutic goals.

I have a special interest in men’s mental health, ADHD, and sleep problems. I support men who feel pressure to hold it together, push through, or handle things alone. Therapy with me is a space where you don’t have to perform, explain everything perfectly, or have a clear goal from day one. At the heart of my work is the belief that meaningful change happens through small, steady steps.
You don’t have to overhaul your life all at once. Therapy can be a place to pause, get your bearings, and figure out your next solid move—like checking the map before continuing the hike. My goal is to offer a supportive, judgment-free space where you can build insight, develop tools, and move forward with greater clarity and confidence, at your own pace.

Over the years as a psychologist, I have learned that you can be good at working in many areas, but you can only be great at some, so I decided to gather a team of therapists whom I trust and that have unique skill sets and varying personality styles to compliment my own and provide other alternatives for you. My team supports all ages and concerns. Many of us enjoy working with men on ‘what it’s like being a man in this day and age’ stuff, as it’s a different landscape to navigate these days! Please check out my website to see all of us and how we can best assist you.
