Online Counselling for Etobicoke

Viktor Frankl said: "When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves." Therapy isn't about getting the right answer, it's about making choices that move you forward. Many aspects of life are out of our control. If we focus on our decisions, we'll find greater contentment. Little shifts make a big difference. In my office, laughter, cursing, crying or yelling are welcome. I have curious questions, off-the-wall metaphors, and shift gears as required.

Are you tired of surviving and ready to recover your thriving capabilities? Do you find yourself lacking motivation or inspiration to act upon your dreams? Do you find that you have no dreams or can't seem to find a compelling future to move towards? Is your past preventing you from thoroughly enjoying your present? I have more than 17 thousand hours of direct client contact and decades of experience in the field. I am creative, compassionate, and resourceful and have created a "toolbox" of evidence-based methods to achieve positive and long-lasting change. I am confident that with commitment & perseverance, you can reach your goals

Are your thoughts taking control? Not feeling yourself? Experienced something tough recently that you can't seem to get past? Going through family struggles, relationship conflict or communication breakdown? Or are you looking for help for a child or teen? Sometimes life struggles can become roadblocks that prevent us from working towards our goals and living our best, most fulfilling lives. As a therapist, I want to help you work through those roadblocks. I strive to provide a safe, nonjudgmental, and collaborative space to help you work through struggles, achieve your goals and get back to a fulfilling, meaningful life.

Welcome! I am a Registered Marriage and Family Therapist and Registered Psychotherapist. I consider it a privilege to come alongside individuals, couples and families at times of stress and transition, providing a safe and respectful space in which to explore change. Having been through a few of life's transitions myself, I bring care, compassion and respect to my work, recognizing that it takes courage to seek help. I am equipped with many types of therapy, and draw on them all as they relate to client's struggles. We will collaboratively identify themes which may be blocking forward movement, finding strategies for change.

Your life looks great on the outside. You have all the things that should make you happy but you don’t feel that way. You may be struggling with anxiety, unresolved past trauma, or relationship dissatisfaction. Maybe you've been using substances more than usual to cope with feeling overwhelmed, either on edge or just completely disconnected like you’re running on autopilot. You’re used to handling your own problems so it can be hard to ask for help. Other people don’t understand, they think you are fine.

Are you feeling trapped in repetitive, unsatisfying patterns, weighed down by unease, discomfort or self-criticism? Are you longing for a change in how you relate to yourself and others, yearning for more fulfilling connections and inner peace? I am here to offer support and guidance as you navigate your journey toward healing and personal growth, helping you become more aligned with who you truly are. We work together as a team, building a supportive relationship in a safe, open-minded atmosphere. We look at how to unblock issues stuck for years and increase your participation and satisfaction in life.

I am a white, queer, cisgender man and settler. I value authenticity and strive to be collaborative, warm, playful, curious, and compassionate in my work with clients. I invite you to also bring any parts of yourself to our shared therapy space - the hurt, the hidden, the hopeful, and whoever else we may discover. My approach to care is rooted in intersectional, anti-oppressive, and trauma-informed frameworks. Some specializations of mine include anxiety, depression, grief, perfectionism, relationship challenges, queer experiences, identity exploration, HIV/AIDS, and trauma. I work with children, youth, adults, and older adults.

I look forward to meeting you and exploring what we can do together. I am here to support you on your journey and to teach you various techniques and coping skills to better equip you in your day-to-day life. I strongly believe that we are all doing the best that we can in any given moment. However, that does not mean that with the right support we cannot do better. I encourage my clients to live the life that they have always wanted. Change is possible.

By understanding what lies deep within us, what motivates our behaviour, we come to know how to live more wisely and authentically. By giving ourselves the same kindness we give others and in listening to our embodied wisdom we discover fresh new possibilities.Therapy helps to manage anxiety, deal with emotions such as regret and shame, and dispel fear and worry. Without the veil of negativity and self-doubt we can make choices that lead to a more empowered future. If you find yourself feeling stuck, unhappy, confused or overwhelmed, entering into a psychotherapeutic relationship can help.

My work involves collaborating with you to cultivate deeper awareness, meaning, connection, and fulfillment in your life and relationships. I can support you through issues such as anxiety, depression, stress, perfectionism, self-criticism, sex and sexuality, conflict and communication, and relationship concerns. I bring in a non-judgmental, anti-oppressive, and compassionate stance to therapy, to build a therapeutic relationship with you where you feel safe, connected, and supported in your journey towards positive change.

I am a mental health professional with more than 10 years of experience. I graduated from The Toronto Institute for Relational Psychotherapy (TIRP). I completed Master's and Ph.D. degrees in Psychology and a 2-year post diploma program in Clinical Sexology. I work with individuals and couples from different backgrounds. I am here to help you cope with your various struggles, in the context of relationships, past experiences, social and cultural backgrounds. If you need help to heal from trauma, gain more awareness, regulate your emotions, explore your needs, and build more meaningful connections with yourself and others - I am here.

Maybe you have tried therapy in the past or explored different venues to overcome difficult situations, but you feel stuck! I have experience working with adults, children/adolescents struggling with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, grief/loss, codependency tendencies, emotional/physical abuse, sexual abuse as well as life transition stressors. I also work with couples providing an active participation to identify their issue, focusing on change-oriented interventions guiding both to understand their individual roles and learn new harmonious strategies.

I have worked exclusively with couples for years - straight, gay, and non-binary. Couples work is my primary area of expertise. I am here to listen to both partners and respond in a supportive, non-judgmental way. I can help you work through common relationship issues including communication, conflict, intimacy, and infidelity. I offer short-term therapy as well as an accelerated Couples Diagnostic program - a one-time therapy experience that jumpstarts your relationship by revealing core issues and what to do about them. I also help couples break up by guiding them through the process of uncoupling in a growth-promoting way.
