Are you tired of cycling through coping skills just to get through the day and want to understand what’s underneath? You may be seeking support for a recent or ongoing traumatic experience, a safe space to explore your childhood, or help in understanding and changing harmful behaviours. Perhaps you’re a man wanting to talk about issues that don’t always feel easy to name. I support clients in working through difficult emotions, gaining insight into past experiences, rebuilding a sense of safety and self-identity, and using coping strategies that actually fit. When appropriate, EMDR can be used to target specific traumatic memories.
I primarily focus on trauma, men’s mental health, and working with those who have difficulty regulating their emotions. However, I also support those navigating a range of challenges including coping with life transitions, burnout, substance use, relationship difficulties, domestic violence, intimacy issues, and managing anger.
I am registered in New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. My approach is warm, welcoming, and relaxed. I ensure a safe and comfortable environment for you. Please reach out and schedule your first appointment today.

I work with clients confronting difficult moments rooted in past or present trauma. Our initial sessions explore your history, values, and current situation. Understanding how your past shapes today's challenges is key. Using reflexive questions and psychoeducation, I support your goals by raising self-awareness and building resilience with strategies for healthier coping in the present.
