Acknowledging that things are not ok is a brave first-step. First and foremost, I want you to know that you are not alone. Now let’s see if together we are a good fit to navigate these difficult thoughts, feelings, and events you’re experiencing. Many of my clients are men seeking support with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges and trauma. In addition, with lived experience in the 2SLGBTQ+ community, I take pride in offering support for any related concerns.

I feel strongly that treatment is not a ‘one size fits all’ which is why I take an integrated framework, drawing upon various modalities of practice to individualize our work together to meet your needs.

Now welcoming new clients in Ontario! I provide virtual therapy for people who feel like they’re constantly holding it together on the outside, but inside it’s a different story. Whether it’s anger catching you off guard, tension in your relationships, sadness that lingers, or stress that’s hard to shake, you don’t have to figure it out alone. My approach is warm, down-to-earth, and rooted in the belief that meaningful change happens when we feel seen, heard, and accepted.

I understand how dark and frightening the difficult times can be, but I also know that it is possible to emerge a stronger, more resilient person.

I hear you. I believe in you. I care. I believe therapy is beneficial because it allows people to share their stories in an environment that is safe and considers their unique needs. I strive to validate people’s emotions (because they are understandable), to highlight their strengths (because sometimes people can’t see them) and to build hope (because it can be restored). My approach draws from the principles of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and person-centred techniques amongst others. I aim to help people better understand emotions, process difficult experiences, address unhelpful behaviours and work towards the life they want.

new mindset CBT is a virtual clinic specializing in anxiety, PTSD and related conditions.

I use Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) to help you set realistic goals, learn new ways to respond to your negative thoughts, and change the behaviours that hold you back from living your best life. You are active in therapy, which helps maintain your progress in the long-term.

My aim is to work with you to help increase your confidence, and address the fears holding you back. If you think new mindset CBT is right for you, contact me for a free 15-minute phone consultation.
