Although I have a particular affinity for working with children & adolescents due to my initial training as a creative arts therapist (allowing for both direct and indirect approaches to difficulty) - at this point in time I work with all demographics, ages and needs within the ‘neuro-typical and atypical spectrum’. Suffering and dis-ease is something that we all share in common, and due to my approach being rooted in an embodied, mindful-compassionate, client-centred collaborative approach, sessions can be relevant to a variety of experiences, i.e. awareness breeds understanding which can facilitate action to find healing.
Ultimately my practice is rooted in a client-centred approach, and so each therapeutic relationship can look quite different. Within that modality, I use an integrative network of skills, including but not limited to: psycho-dynamic & developmental theory, creative art mediums, mindfulness practice, compassion-focused techniques, and anti-colonial insights.
We live in an incredibly tricky age right now - a healthy mind and a stable sense of well-being can feel like a distant dream, or something once experienced but lost. I can assure you that every situation is workable - you're not really stuck. Contact me for a free consultation to see if we would be a good fit. Thank you kindly for your time & consideration!

As a member of both the ACNN and the QCA-CCPA my clients can usually gain coverage through either their 'counselling' and/or 'naturotherapy/naturopathy' insurance policies. Currently, I'm unfortunately unable to offer sliding-scale pricing, however this may be possible in the near future.

Although my specialties are in youth work, grief, and general mental health - my client-centred holistic approach can be of benefit to a myriad of experiences. We start by developing a healthy and safe therapeutic relationship, and then flexibly attend to whatever needs arise along the therapeutic journey. Capacity for somatic experiencing and more self-compassion arise naturally.

Martin's integration of myth, stories, and movement mixed with his softness and radical acceptance will help you feel like no part of you is too shameful to be welcomed in the space. He is a treasure for neurodiverse clients with chronic health issues.

The approach used will depend on your individual or collective needs. Developing awareness and therefore understanding and more workability around your difficulty is key - and this often can be done using the lens of somatic experiencing, mindfulness processing & psycho-dynamic exploration. The creative arts can be especially helpful in exploring things more obliquely and with aesthetic distance.
