I take a holistic approach to mental health, and have worked in fitness and areas of spirituality prior to my work as a therapist. I help men figure out their lives as they reconsider their past, close the chapters they have yet to close, and move on to the next phase of their journey. Whatever the issue, I like to attack both symptoms and the roots of whatever ails you with a mix of Cognitive-Behavioural and Narrative therapeutic approaches.
