A good fit between a therapist and a client is conducive to positive outcomes.

Andrew pays particular attention to healing the pains, patterns, and traumas lodged in our bodies and minds. Andrew is an integral therapist. He practices in the emotional, somatic, cognitive, and spiritual realms. Andrew works with the whole person and their parts

We all have times in our lives when we know something is wrong, even if we don’t know what it is. You might feel off-balance, low energy, not yourself. Often you feel like you want to talk about what’s happening with someone, even if you aren't yet clear about it. You want to be able to talk with someone who won’t judge you, who won’t second guess your experiences, or try to explain them away, or try to rewrite your story for you. You want to be able to talk with someone who will listen without an agenda. Someone who can provide understanding and compassion, patience and authenticity. Let's talk.

Are you trying to get back with your girlfriend? Did you do something that got you dumped, and you don't know why you did it? Did you do everything for her and got nothing back? Or are you in a relationship and can't decide whether to leave or not. What happened to my sexual desire? Is she hot enough? Am I happy where I am now? I'm young, and I want to have more sex. Do I watch too much porn? What should I do? Are you also lost in life? You want to have a meaningful career, doing the things you love, but why can't I get out off the couch?

Sometimes life can become overwhelming. In the midst of the many challenges we face, it can be difficult to remember that it is okay to feel confused, frustrated, angry, sad, or apathetic. As a Registered Psychotherapist (RP), my approach is client-centred. I assist people with discovering and accepting all the unique aspects of themselves, encouraging self-care and to speak freely without fear of judgement. The simple act of sharing our experiences and trials in our lives in a safe, comfortable space can help to begin the healing process.

With extensive experience working with university and college students, emerging adults, members of marginalized communities, diverse newcomers, and coaching executives, I offer you a trained ear. Client issues include feeling stuck, mood issues, mind on overdrive, and managing transitions. Let us find ways to not only survive but also thrive in all areas of your life (school, career, community, family and so on). Clients can expect to develop acceptance, change behaviours, and use strengths to improve well-being.

Is your relationship facing relentless conflicts, dwindling intimacy, and a fading bond? Do you miss the affectionate moments and effortless connection you once shared, now finding yourselves wondering if you can ever make your relationship work? It's heart-wrenching to see your relationship in turmoil, but change is within reach. Don't allow doubts or a lack of clarity to paralyze your efforts to heal your relationship. Start the journey of restoring your connection with your partner and bring back the love you've been missing.

Undisturb yourself! Using CBT, Existential, and Mindfulness forms of psychotherapy, I help clients (in-person/ telephone/ on-line) develop the tools in order that they think, act and feel better. Sometimes the realities of life understandably leave us susceptible to certain anxieties, despair and general existential concern. All too often we find ourselves developing unhelpful irrational thoughts and behaviours that can seem impossible to change. But they aren't. If you are interested in investigating and changing your assumptions and behaviours, if you want to modify the lens through which you view and experience the world, my therapeutic modality could be well suited to you.

In therapy, you will explore “what's wrong for you” instead of “what's wrong with you”. There is enormous potential for self-awareness and self-growth with help from a listening, caring, and attuned therapist. I provide Relational Therapy, which holds that there is great potential for healing, growth and change from within a therapeutic relationship. I meet my clients with great respect, as a fellow traveler in the therapeutic journey. My wish is to cultivate a safe space for my clients to experience their emotions and encounter their beliefs about themselves.

I am an experienced Career Transition Coach; I have helped thousands of people who were not satisfied in their present work situations. Let me help you so that you can lessen the stress that you are now feeling. Contact me - I can help you.

I believe in people before problems. My view is that we have abilities to overcome challenges, even when they seem insurmountable. What often stops us from living our lives the way we want to, is getting caught up by the problem, rather than finding solutions. I don’t shy away from problem talk, but I also encourage space for finding what works to live a more fulfilling life.

Wow, things feel pretty hard these days. The world doesn't feel as solid as it used to. Conflict and inflation affect daily life. Negative self talk, fear, loneliness, anxiety, and anger can grow in these conditions. I feel it too. I am here to help. I know how hard these experiences are. Other people may not understand. Let's talk about it. I am committed to listening to see what I can do to help.

As a psychotherapist, my job is first of all to listen closely: to learn what the world looks like through your eyes, and how some things are currently not working for you. Being able to "tune in" in this way to each person's unique experience is one of the most important things I can offer, and I have been told throughout my career that I am very good at it. It is the foundation that allows trust to develop between us, so you feel comfortable enough to explore painful or difficult issues together.

I help people who are struggling to manage their overwhelming thoughts and emotions find a sense of inner peace, clarity of vision, and an authentic way of being. With a focus on the transformative power of emotions and the potential for healing within the therapeutic relationship, I endeavour to help you harness your innate drive toward healing and resilience. In our work, we'll venture into the exploration of your emotional experiences, not merely as symptoms to be managed but as valuable portals to understanding and transformation. Together we'll unlock paths to healing previously barricaded by fear, shame, or misunderstanding.

You might be here because you are searching for someone to help you with how you're feeling. You may feel anxious, depressed, stressed, like you don't measure up, or stuck and are hoping to find a compassionate listener. Perhaps you're dealing with big life transitions, issues between you and your partner(s), marginalization, interpersonal conflict, finding your purpose, or competing priorities. Bringing any of this to therapy can be scary. There is profound healing power in being courageous, listened to, validated, and encouraged.

Guys have way more going on emotionally than most of us are comfortable talking about. If you have never talked to someone about whatever it is that you probably should talk to someone about, then I may be the guy for you. Some men come to my office after they've recently broken up with their girlfriend (or she has broken up with him). Some are dealing with anxiety or are living under the influence of depression. Some guys are trying to figure out who they really are and what to do with their life. What they all have in common is that they have strengths to draw on and want to advance in life feeling better than they do now.

Many things might be motivating your search for a therapist. Maybe you're seeking self improvement. Maybe life isn't turning out quite like you hoped. Maybe you're dealing with the aftershocks of trauma or trying to find meaning after a significant loss. Whatever brought you here, I want to hear your story. We'll work together to deeply understand what doesn't feel quite right in your life, but we'll also celebrate the things that do. Together, we'll create a nurturing space for your voice to be heard and your story to be told.

Do you have anxiety or conflicting feelings about touch? Do you experience chronic stress? Talking about problems is certainly important, and sometimes words are not enough. Science says we need 8-12 hugs per day for optimal health and many experts have observed that "trauma lives in the body", so you could be triggered by the very thing you need for your healing and well-being. By combining talk and therapeutic touch, my integrated experiential coaching provides a safe space for you to "unpack" and process what's been haunting you, to help you to recover so you can redirect that energy toward living a happier, more satisfying life.
