Congratulations on being one step closer to starting therapy! If you're feeling daunted by this thought, whether or not you've had therapy before, you're not alone. Perhaps you're in distress and seeking immediate support, or you've been passively contemplating therapy for a long time... in any case, I'm happy to help.

You are not broken. The ways you learned to survive — to protect yourself from pain — were wise and necessary. If you’re living with the effects of trauma, you may feel overwhelmed, disconnected, emotionally exhausted, or unsure why certain situations feel so difficult. These responses are not flaws, they are are your nervous system doing its best to keep you safe.

Most men have been taught that we have to manage things by ourselves. To hide our feelings. Or men don't have feelings. Guess what that leads to? Anger, irritability, relationship issues, work problems, and trouble connecting with our kids, friends, and partners. Maybe drinking too much and checking out, too. Or cheating on our partner, because it's easier than trying to figure out what's going on at home. Maybe you don't even realize how bad things have gotten until your partner tells you that you "can't communicate", you're messing up, and now you have no idea what to do and you're defensive and confused.

Gender-based violence, restorative approaches and narrative therapy have led me to work internationally. Locally, I have spent 25 years working for a trauma-informed community-based organization and for the past fifteen I have also worked for the Canadian Armed Forces. Currently I continue to speak publicly and train others about domestic violence. I co-founded the Canadian Domestic Violence Conference when I saw a need to bring more light to the subject. I am available to help couples work through the damages caused by domestic violence as well as to help individuals repair the harm done to them so they can move forward.

Do you ever feel like no one really gets you? Maybe you’re overwhelmed by big emotions, pressure at school, or drama with friends and family. You might feel anxious, misunderstood, or like you’re not good enough—especially when it’s hard to explain what’s going on inside. You try to hold it all in, but it’s exhausting, and you're not sure where to turn. If you’re feeling frustrated, shut down, or stuck in your head, I see you.
