Hi, I'm Scott! I have spent the past 18 years in Vancouver as a therapist working with children, youth, families and adults struggling with mental health issues, substance use, trauma, anger, grief, as well as isolation and disconnection. I have volunteered working with young offenders in the prison system, and with suicidal individuals through the services of the Vancouver Crisis Centre. Connectedness plays an important role in both my personal and professional life. At times, finding similar thoughts and opinions has helped me feel human. Other times, seeking different ideas and people has helped open my mind to new possibilities.

First of all, I wanted to say thank you. Looking for a therapist, for yourself or for someone close to you, requires energy and courage. Whether you are experiencing a particularly difficult or different situation recently or for a long time, whether you are in a deeper and more latent reflection, therapy is an answer to those aches and thoughts that fill and overwhelm you. Respecting yourself by offering you the possibility to feel better is, to my opinion, the most important step you are going to take for you. I propose therapy in English and French.

Do you want more out of life, but find that your self-doubt sometimes gets in the way? Do you become discouraged by setbacks, and get sucked into more negative and fearful mindsets? Do you overthink to the point where you are stalling yourself? My clients tend to be bright and accomplished people who look like they've got it together on the outside, but inwardly struggle with insecurity and indecisiveness. I suspect that you long to meet your current challenges with confidence and self-compassion, rather than self-criticism – so that you can live with greater ease, more acceptance, and feel more alive and connected.

I am a Registered Psychotherapist and Registered Counselling Supervisor. My practice is guided by extensive experience working with people coming from various socioeconomic backgrounds as well as many years of serving the most vulnerable communities in Vancouver’s DTES. While my approach is integrative of modern theories and techniques, it heavily relies on Psychodynamic theories and practice. Psychodynamic Psychotherapy is a highly individualized treatment whose goal is not only to alleviate the most obvious symptom. It relies on the fact that our personalities are uniquely shaped by several developmental stages.

I am passionate about walking with other humans as they navigate the full spectrum of their experience. As a trauma informed, holistic counsellor, I support clients with embodiment. I specialize in grief and loss, body image, disordered eating and LGBTQ+ topics. My approach is informed by Existentialism, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Somatic Therapy, Yoga (200HR), Mindfulness/Meditation, and the natural world.

No matter what you are struggling with, my aim as a therapist is to be by your side as you take on this journey of self-discovery and growth.

Mental health problems are fairly common among Canadians, with estimates that 20% of Canadians experience a mental health issue each year. Yet, people often suffer through these issues on their own. Just because you're going through a difficult time now doesn't mean it will always be this way. Speaking with a psychologist can help you move past these issues to get you back on track.
