Welcome to Druid Counseling! In relationship counseling, couples all report a failure of communication on some level. What does emotional accountability sound like? How do we convey a level of concern without giving offence to our partner? What does projection, defensiveness and anger management all have in common and needs to change to become positive growth? How can we move past accusation, defensiveness & accelerated domestic conflict with our partner towards stability, harmony and love? We start at the basics, and re-build, both in session & at home. Believe it or not, but there is hope. Success begins and ends with you.

I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) working with teens & young adults (13yrs to 40ish). I specialize in therapeutic conversations that support the unique experiences & challenges during this time in life. In particular, I am knowledgeable in supporting the emotional needs of 2SLGBTQ+ folks. I have training to complete Hormone Readiness Assesments.

As a sex-positive therapist / Sexual Health Educator, I promote a healthy attitude towards human sexual behaviour & safer sex practices and I appreciate and respect gender, sexual & relationship diversity.

I have been privileged to work as a psychotherapist for almost thirty years and continue to be in awe of the strength and resilience and wisdom inherent in each person I meet. My role as a psychotherapist is to help you access what is inside you and heal from what has prevented you from becoming the best version of yourself. Together we will transform loss and trauma and life transitions into new hope and possibilities for a life that is psychologically rich and rewarding. Therapy is a relationship with yourself where you re-discover and cultivate the real you. It's about wellness and vitality and creating a life you love.

Hi there, I’m Graham. I work with individuals and folks in relationships (romantic, platonic, or professional) facing a broad range of challenges. I support clients struggling with the legacy of trauma; relationship concerns around communication, needs and boundaries, intimacy and sex, power dynamics, and systemic issues; as well as self-esteem, depression, anxiety, grief and loss, and distressing emotions. If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected in some aspect of your life, these are all things we can work on together in counselling.

Do you struggle with Compulsive Sexual Behaviors or Betrayal Trauma associated with your partners Sex, Porn and/or Love Addiction? If you can relate to any of these struggles that have created anxiety and stress in your life, let me help. Allow me to come along side you and support, guide, heal and offer accountability.

My view on counselling is based upon the level of trust and the quality of the connection that we are able to create together. In essence, the relationship that we develop together is key. I would wish to provide you with a safe, caring environment where you could come to feel completely heard and understood. I see my role as being more of a Guide, offering support while at the same time gently encouraging your growth by pointing out certain areas, thoughts, beliefs or behaviours that may be keeping you stuck, or that you may be unaware of.

Life can throw people into confusion which brings us to a place of seeking consolation and clarity through curiosity. James considers it a privilege to walk alongside people facing internal and interpersonal confusion with compassion. James never takes for granted the challenge change presents for clients and therefore brings warmth and wonder in sessions with clients. James believes that collaboratively the client and counsellor can create an genuine connection for healing and hope with an integrated approach for client health and wholeness. Personal desolation to consolation happens from person to person.

Do you feel bogged down by intense anxiety or stress? Do you feel hopeless or depressed about your life? Are the relationships in your life toxic or filled with tension? Does addiction have a tight grip on your life? Do you feel chained to the past and due to trauma? If you relate to any of those questions and would like help navigating difficult emotions, thoughts, behaviours, relationships, or trauma, come talk to me. I have been trained by some of the leading experts in the field of psychotherapy such as Dr Gabor Mate and Dr Patrick Carnes, and I would be honoured to be a part of your journey to help you achieve your goals.

Most people I work with initially seek counselling as a result of some form of suffering. Sometimes this suffering is specific such as symptoms of anxiety, depression, addiction, stress or relationship issues. Other times the suffering is vague, a feeling of something being off, amiss, or worse. In either case, I meet people where they are at, either 'getting to it' (so to speak) and yet taking the time for whatever needs to unfold.

Have you been going to therapy for a while or are the doctors stumped with a mystery illness the medical system can't explain? Do you have complicated family dynamics, or require support in your relationship? My work focuses on treatment resistant disorders, personality disorders, sexual funciton/dysfuction and chronic pain. Additionally, working as an emergency first responder and having been deployed to theatres of conflict as a pilot has helped me to understand the complexity of trauma. I work with individuals, couples and families to help when others have not been able to.

I offer individual counselling and EMDR Therapy to adults and youth (14+). I specialize in working with clients struggling with anxiety, unresolved trauma, and substance use or drinking concerns. My passion is bringing tools into counselling that tap into the mind and the body. Through a holistic and trauma-informed approach, we can challenge negative beliefs that may be holding you back, build on your supports and strengths, and explore your emotions with a compassionate awareness and a deepening understanding of the past and present.
