Maybe depression isn't sadness for you — maybe it's flatness, anger, or low
motivation.
A lot of the men I work with have never talked to anyone
about this stuff. Not a friend, not a partner, not
anyone. They've been carrying it alone — convincing
themselves it's not bad enough to get help, or that
getting help isn't something men do.
That's exactly who I'm here for.

You feel worried, stressed and anxious. You try to control situations and people around you to find some relief. You know this isn’t how you want to show up, yet it feels automatic & hard to stop. Your mind pulls you in different directions - “what if” scenarios, predicting the worst, and wondering when the other shoe might drop. It’s exhausting. The thoughts feel like a mental tornado you can’t escape; you find it difficult to stay focussed on what’s in front of you. You long for something different—a sense of calm and peace in your life where you feel like you are in the driver’s seat and not your worries.

If you’ve been feeling anxious, depressed, alone, angry, or overwhelmed, it may be affecting you personal or professionally. Perhaps it feels like something is just off, or just you aren’t feeling as good as you’d like. Problems like these can be difficult to pin-point. Can you relate to any of the following: feeling low, loss of interest, lack of energy, less self-confidence, a sense of guilt, difficulty concentrating, restlessness, trouble sleeping, or changes in appetite? Perhaps it would just be nice to get to the bottom of things so you can feel less disconnected, less alone, or less on edge.

Changes in one's life can result in many possibilities that can be overwhelming for some, and exciting for others.To manage the changes that occur in our life, we create our own personal safety net as a means for protection and safety from the potential dangers that can be brought on from change.However, an over reliance on these personal safety nets may lead to feeling like being imprisoned and trapped inside one's shell. This could eventually result in feelings of depression and anxiety.

“Our lives are beautiful stories that sometimes don’t quite turn out the way we wanted them to. When this happens, we struggle to correct ourselves, to get our lives back on track again. My goal is to help you identify what the essential narrative of your life is. Once identified, we work together to revise this narrative to better suit your needs.
I work with adults primarily using psychodynamic methods. I’m also a life-long nerd/geek, which means that I have a soft spot for them. If you book with me, you will experience a safe, relaxed, and natural conversation style. I usually build alliances quite easily with my clients.

Anger Management Counsellors
How long does therapy take for anger management?
Treatment duration depends on the person’s specific challenges and circumstances. There are treatments for anger problems that are shorter and more goal-oriented, like Cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), which can last weeks to months. Others, like Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) may last between six months and a year, while a more intensive treatment, like psychodynamic therapy, is open-ended, and clients may see their therapist for a year or longer.
How do you know if you need therapy for anger management?
Everyone gets mad from time to time. But when angry outbursts become frequent and cause damage to relationships, whether at home or in the office, it may be a good time to look into therapy. A therapist can assess where a client’s anger may be coming from, suggest strategies for averting angry outbursts, and help a client create a plan to become a calmer version of themselves.
Is there medication for anger management?
Medications do exist that help people mitigate the feeling of anger, but these are reserved for people with anger-related psychiatric disorders, such as intermittent explosive disorder, oppositional defiant disorder, or in some cases borderline personality disorder. In these cases, antidepressant medications may be prescribed to help with the client’s symptoms. In most cases of anger management, however, talk therapy is the recommended treatment, along with lifestyle changes where relevant.
What’s the best way to encourage someone to seek help for anger issues?
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 themselves 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.
