Life can challenge even the most capable among us. If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected, despite your strengths, you’re not alone. I understand how hard it can be to reach out, especially when you’ve always been the one others rely on. As a Clinical Psychologist, I focus on two areas: men’s mental health and couples therapy. For men, the pressure to “hold it together” often leads to burnout, anxiety, or emotional shutdown. I’m drawn to couples who feel stuck either in repeated conflict or emotional distance. I work well in complex environments when there’s a fundamental willingness to engage in the process.

Something's not right- you're drowning, lost, afraid, carrying something too heavy to hold alone. Or maybe it's a quieter disconnection - numbness, feeling like you're just going through the motions. You might not even have words for it, you just know that things can't keep going this way.
Or maybe you're reaching out for someone you love — a partner, son, daughter, friend — and you see them struggling but don't know how to help.
Whether you're trying to make sense of what's happened/happening, stuck in patterns that aren't working, searching for meaning and purpose, or simply need a space to release what's being carried, I'm here.

I am a clinical psychologist typically working with clients experiencing difficulties with anxiety, mood, managing emotions, coping with stress or dealing with conflict in relationships. I enjoy working with clients to increase understanding of how they got to where they are now, reduce suffering, build skills, develop goals and meaning. Clients often come in crisis, when they have tried everything and struggled for a long time, but continue treatment long after crisis has resolved to work on creating a fuller and better life. I particularly enjoy developing a deeper therapeutic relationship and working long-term.

I’m Rob, a gay psychotherapist and counsellor. I work particularly with GBTQ+ men around relationships, identity, anxiety, self-worth and self-understanding. My approach is non-pathologising, which means I don’t see you as a problem that needs fixing or assume that there is something wrong with you. Instead, I’m interested in understanding what makes sense about the way you’ve come to be where you are, including the experiences and relationships that have shaped you.

Men's Issues Therapists
Is therapy for men different than it is for women?
Therapeutic treatments and types are the same for men as they are for women, with the same protocols followed and the same strategies employed. Discussing one’s feelings and emotions is an integral part of most therapies, and some men find doing so more challenging. Therapists can help clients through the process; some specialize in treating men for this reason.
How do you encourage a man to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express your concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual’s behavior affected either himself or others should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
How can men prepare for therapy?
Men can prepare for therapy by approaching the process with an open mind, being willing to talk about their challenges, and giving treatment the time to work. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. It can be useful for men who struggle to recall their emotional states to write down notes between sessions about their response to a given event or how they were feeling at a particular time.
What should men know about the process of therapy?
One of the most common reasons men don’t seek therapy is the notion that there’s something wrong with them if they do. Men should know that just because they’re seeking therapy doesn’t mean they’re mentally ill or damaged in some way. In the same way people work on their bodies through exercise or a craft through practice, therapy can be a way to improve the mental and emotional skills needed to be productive and effective partners, employees, and people in all realms of life.
