I really don’t have an ideal client in mind. Every client has different needs and requires somewhat of a customized approach. I enjoy helping people so anyone I’m helping I’m getting a sense of satisfaction from.

My goal is to provide a warm and accepting space for clients to be seen, heard, and supported while they explore their emotional selves and their connections with others. My areas of practice include grief and loss, anxiety, depression, and trauma, particularly as these issues become more problematic during life transitions. I am oriented towards longer-term work around root causes, such as poor nurturing and childhood trauma. My approach is an integration of Bioenergetic Analysis and Emotionally Focused Therapy, both of which have a strong base in childhood attachment theory and view emotional processing as critical to healing.

I view humans as inherently good and that problems emerge from unmet needs. Therapy can offer a path forward when we feel stuck, helping you navigate challenges and live with greater self-understanding, resilience, and ease.

Life rarely follows a straight path, and it doesn’t come with Google Maps. Since 2006 I have been working as a therapist to support people as they navigate the messy journey of life - creating a non-judgmental space to talk through problems, learn new skills, or unburden things you’ve carried your whole life. Whether you spend your days driving forklifts, drafting documents, or raising kids, sometimes everyone needs a little help. I work with folks aged 19+ from all walks of life, backgrounds, relationship styles, orientations and identities. I have experience working with veterans and first responders.

This isn’t how you’d imagined your life. Every day seems a little more difficult, and all those things that you used to enjoy just don’t hit the way they once did. You’re worried all the time, and when you look around you hardly recognize the life you’re living. This isn’t how it was supposed to be.

Addictions, Homelessness and Truth & Reconciliation are what interest me. If you are stuck in a destructive pattern, or know someone who is, then we should talk.

My background is in systems theory; the idea that everyone is connected to those around them, with influence between all those people, organizations, and cultures. My approach to therapy is primarily Cognitive Behavioral Therapy but I also see a need for insight into the meaning that we make/have made of things and how that impacts our present. Therapy then, involves opening space for a person to increase awareness of their own process and to see alternative perspectives, thereby empowered to make different life decisions. It is so exciting to see someone realize that they have the power to change their perspective and their life!

Male Counsellors
As a man, why might I want to see a male therapist?
There are many reasons a man might wish to work with a male therapist, including a degree of shared identity, which may help client and therapist connect to each other and allow for a more free-flowing discussion of issues that can be deeply personal. Some men may feel more comfortable talking to a male therapist about relationship concerns, the pressures they feel around the roles society and family place on men, career or job challenges, self-esteem, or anger problems. For some men who have not had a male role models in their lives, a good male therapist may be especially helpful.
How can I find out about a therapist’s experience treating men?
Individuals looking for treatment should feel comfortable directly asking a therapist about their history treating men overall and the issues that arise in therapy with men. A good therapist will be happy to discuss such matters as well as their educational background, approach to treatment, and how they think they can aid a prospective client. Prospective clients should also ask what the expectation is for treatment, and what the fee structure is, and whether and which insurance plans are accepted.
Can clients benefit from having a therapist of the same gender?
Therapy is not gender-specific, but some men as well as women feel more comfortable opening up about their experiences and history with a male therapist. An individual may feel that they have to explain less background information and be on the same page more quickly, particularly when discussing gender-specific challenges, in the case of male clients. Some women have prior negative experiences with women that predispose them to prefer working with a male in therapy. That said, a good clinician can transcend most if not all gender concerns. Ultimately, the most important factor in therapy is the connection and trust the client is able to build with the practitioner.
Would a male therapist have specific training in treating men?
Generally, no. There are no certifications for treating men specifically, but there are continuing education classes that therapists may take that focus on treating men as a group. There are many therapists who focus on men and male issues in their treatment and therefore have experience and expertise in this domain.
