Therapists in M4Y

Mental health is rich in complexity and unique to each individual. Wherever you are in your journey - anticipating a challenge ahead, overwhelmed with conflict, or looking for healing, things are subject to change. I am committed to creating a safe and collaborative environment to support your goals for therapy. Together we will explore your resilience, how to mange strong emotions, and strengthen your relationships.

I practice from a collaborative, strengths-based framework that is trauma and attachment informed. I use a holistic approach that works from where you are at in your healing and honours your knowledge and strengths. I have worked in the non-profit sector for over 10 years with families, couples and individuals ages 7 and older.

I am a reformed intellectualizer who now helps couples and individuals through body-based psychotherapy. Many of my clients feel disconnected from their bodies, whether this be because of pain, burnout, trauma, ADHD or emotional numbing. It can be impossible to feel sometimes. While our bodies are smart and have adapted to our environments, there is also a way to reconnect and heal.

For close to 30 years I served the HIV/AIDS and LGBTQ+ communities as a counsellor at the AIDS Committee of Toronto (ACT). I am now in private practice. As a gay man I have a particular interest in working with other gay/Bi/Queer men, but all are welcome. My approach is uncomplicated. I work from a client-centred, trauma-informed, psycho-social perspective, using a goal-oriented approach.

The ability to have direction over our own lives is a common need we all share. We want to be at the helm, steering our own ship and making decisions for ourselves. Yet, life can throw us curve balls, shaking our confidence and leaving us questioning where to turn. If you want to make lasting change but don’t know where to start, I can help. I am a Registered Social Worker (MSW, RSW) and Psychotherapist practicing in Toronto. I have spent the last 15 years of my 35-year career helping adults and couples achieve their goals; walk through life more intentionally; and cultivate the quality relationships they desire.

In our sessions, expect empathetic, intentional spaces which acknowledge the layers of marginalization, oppression, trauma, and healing that shape us. This space will be for sharing stories that affirm every part of your identity, reconnecting you to your values, experiences and goals for healing and growth. Using a range of therapeutic approaches, including, narrative, humanistic, existential and strength-based methods, I aim to tailor our work to meet your unique needs. I embrace trauma-informed, decolonizing, anti-oppressive and intersectional therapeutic principles.

I believe therapy is for everyone. We all deserve a warm and empathic space to bring our innermost thoughts, fears, and needs. As a fat, queer, trans, and neurodivergent person, I have always found it difficult to fit myself into the world around me. For this reason, as a therapist, I don’t believe there is a one-size-fits-all therapeutic modality. I specialize in working with people who live outside of the margins and my goal is to provide you with a compassionate and collaborative space to make therapy work for you.

We all have our own histories and desires for our futures. At times these personal narratives can feel like a resource and at other times a hindrance. Sometimes we feel like we’re stuck or are moving backwards when we want to go forwards. How do we stay present in our day-to-day lives when we are visited by the voices of the past or images of the future? How do we find and listen to the voice of strength, wisdom and resiliency that lives in each one of us, when that voice seems to be silent? I don’t offer pat answers, but instead offer space and guidance to help you to deeply explore the issues and questions that want to explore.

Providing a balance of support and challenge, my approach to healing is holistic and comprehensive. I believe that each individual has all of the inner resources they need to achieve a sense of balance and equanimity. My role is merely to provide a safe, non-judgmental container in which they can reach their own integration - cognitively, emotionally and somatically. I aim to assist the individual's journey-making process through offering new ways at looking through the lens which often gets obscured by many mitigating factors. Clarity is the goal.

We are living in difficult times. Many people today are feeling alienated from themselves and others, feeling anxious or depressed. Some are feeling little or nothing; others are overwhelmed, having difficulties with relationships, or they're confused about their direction in life. Wherever you are, I will meet you there with kind attention and encouragement, and together we will unravel your tensions and discover how to help you find your inner strength and resourcefulness. I have been practising as a Registered Social Worker/Psychotherapist for over 20 years and have helped many people find greater health and fulfillment in life.

Stress, fear, anxious thoughts, lack of motivation, sadness and/or anger seem to plague your life. Perhaps you're feeling confused, insecure or are grieving a loss. Maybe your relationships seem to constantly involve pain and frustration, you're reliving a traumatic event or you continue to engage in habits and patterns you find self-harming. You simply want to feel peaceful, joyful and confident. You are ready to do the therapeutic work needed to make that happen.

Are you feeling unlike yourself? Whether you are feeling anxious, depressed, overwhelmed, held back by past experiences, or simply stuck, I am here to help support you. In my practice, I help individuals get back to their ideal self, and reach their goals. I specialize in helping individuals reconnect with themselves and with others. Together, we can collaborate to better understand how you feel, and create strategies that will help you thrive. All while creating a warm space that invites connection.
