Hi. I’m Johann (pronounced “Yo-Han”). I’ve been a therapist for over 30yrs mostly working with children and families. For the past decade+ I also work in In-Patient Mental Health: Psychiatry (Adult/Children) in Hamilton/Halton Region along with private practice. I bring insight and knowledge to help people navigating challenges that emerge from a wide range of mental health and addiction difficulties such as mood disorders, emotion dysregulation, suicide ideation, self-harm, trauma, grief and loss, separation and divorce, borderline personality disorder traits, OCD, ODD and ADHD other developmental difficulties.
I take a contemporary approach and use time-tested techniques to help you achieve your goals while fostering hope and confidence. I balance the use of proven measurement and evidence-based processes with an eclectic blend of therapies. I temper this approach with compassion and the knowledge that you are the driver of extent of the changes you want.
Our work can target a specific concern, or you may choose to do longer-term work to address chronic behavioural patterns. Contact me, and let’s take the first steps to make real changes together. More information and locations can found on-line at "Pivot-Counselling" in Burlington and Oakville offices. Services can be provided virtually or in-person.
