Helping you with anxiety, depression, stress & overwhelm, challenging experiences (you may wish not to talk about), and chronic pain. Garth works with adults of all ages, backgrounds, and orientations. The goal of therapy is to help you resolve your issues, sort your sh!t out, improve your relationships, make hard decisions (if needed), move forward, and build a better future for yourself. If you need a different approach and want help with major depression, anxiety, OCD, addictions, life changes, relationship issues, taking the next step, or chronic pain, then Garth can help.
Garth has a direct no-nonsense approach as your "Consultant" to your mind and life choices where you are the Boss. He will make suggestions and provide ideas that he welcomes disagreement and deep discussion. He provides CBT, ACT, psychoeducation, couples and interpersonal therapy, hypnotherapy, and Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT).
Sometimes life can feel overwhelming or out of control with so much uncertainty that we can feel stuck. Yet we often try to sort it out alone. Getting help seem too hard and risky, particularly if past experiences didn't work out. If you've come this far, keep going, try someone different, and find the right fit for you.

I can help improve mood, strengthen impulse control and decision-making, and improve chronic pain. Depending on your goals, you may need approximately 3 sessions, though more may help for complex cases. Sessions typically involve a collaborative focus on what you wish to change, I share psychological strategies, you give feedback, and we work out a plan to help you get what you want.

Rather than forcing the client to adapt to a therapy, I like to adapt the therapy to the needs and therapeutic goals of the client, using a bit of this or a bit of that, in order to help you deepen your insights, resolve issues, feel better, and move toward what you want.
