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.

Mr. Chris Martin

I have a strong background focusing on healthy relationships. This includes a focus on anger, conflict and reducing abuse. Furthermore, this work is complemented by significant experience working on issues of anxiety and depression, with much of my work predominantly done with men and young adult men.

Ms. Alaina Johnston
Ms. Alaina Johnston
My approach to treatment and counseling is a holistic one which includes using evidence-based models of psychotherapy, as well as more alternative based therapeutic methods. I utilize different modalities and focus on the entire person where we assess and look at their mind, body, and spirit. I see every individual as a complex and unique being who is a product of their environment and genetics (nature and nurture). In turn, we come up with a treatment plan that is supportive, multi-faceted, and specific to your needs. I specialize in the areas of anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and grief.

Fit is everything in therapy, without it you can feel like you’re spinning your wheels wasting time and money, just not getting the results you want from your investment. The men who work well with me prefer someone who is no-nonsense, likes to laugh, swears a lot, and does not take themselves too seriously,. At the same time, I’m down for tackling serious, dark, gnarly issues that you may never have been willing to even say out loud.
I’m also a semi-retired dentist (weird combo, I know), with extensive expertise in chronic pain and serious health issues. I work with pain patients and caregivers to manage the wear and tear that pain and illness has on folks and their families.
Sound like maybe a good fit? Reach out.

I am a registered Psychotherapist with a special interest in helping men who can get ‘stuck’ and struggle with transitions in life such as retirement from sport, losing a job, divorce, re-locating or simply helping you to figure out a purpose for what comes next. My approach is simple; non-judgmental, open and empathetic to client experiences. I take a broad perspective to understanding my client experiences and integrate historical information to formulating a plan to help clients resolve problems now. Depression, anxiety disorders, loneliness, anger and substance abuse are key areas that I specialize in.

John Sendim

In my role as your therapist, I am committed to providing a safe and nonjudgmental space where you can share your story. Throughout our sessions, I pay close attention to the words and language you use, and I incorporate metaphors and imagery to aid in our work together. I also integrate mindfulness and compassion techniques to help you cultivate greater self-awareness and kindness towards yourself. Together, we will explore the root causes of your anxiety, stress, anger, or depression, and I will support you in challenging and transforming any unhelpful patterns that are keeping you stuck. My goal is to empower you to understand the source of your pain and to help you move forward in a way that feels authentic and meaningful to you. To achieve this, I will tailor my approach to your specific needs and preferences.
