If you feel overwhelmed, anxious, stuck, or disconnected from yourself or others, you don’t have to do this alone! Maybe a challenging relationship, past experiences, stress, or a major life transition have left you overthinking, doubting yourself, or feeling emotionally drained. You want to feel more grounded, confident, and in control, and not feel like you are forcing yourself to get through the day. I will help you better understand yourself, reconnect with who you are, and develop strategies and coping skills to move forward with greater clarity and ease.

We all face difficulties in life from time to time. Sometimes, we find the strength to cope and to resolve things on our own. Other times, we need someone else to come alongside us, to walk with us as we face the challenges of life, to help us build our strength and resources to more effectively move forwards towards finding the solutions we seek. Counselling can help in this process. I offer counselling in the Kincardine, ON area, as well as online and telephone counselling.

I specialize in shame, trauma, anxiety, and nervous system healing, and I'd love to connect with you to see if I can support you. I'm an integrative therapist - meaning I combine methods that address your survival brain, nervous system, logic brain, and body. Because to truly heal, it's important to address your whole system. I've been a licensed therapist now for more than 20 years, and I'm so honoured to do this work. My approach combines IFS (Parts Work), cognitive restructuring, nervous system healing, memory reconsolidation, compassion-focused therapy, and somatic (body) connection.

Your mind doesn’t switch off.
You overthink decisions.
There’s constant pressure to stay sharp, perform, and keep things together.
From the outside, things look fine.
Internally, it feels tense, restless, and hard to fully relax.
Most of the men I work with are used to pushing through, but over time, that turns into anxiety, irritability, mental fatigue, and disconnection.
I help you understand what’s driving it, including how past experiences have shaped these patterns, then we work on changing how you respond so you can feel more in control and less caught in it.

In a world of uncertainty, I believe that there is always hope. Through psychotherapy, my aim is to help you discover hope regardless of what life’s circumstances you find yourself in.
Acknowledging the need for support can feel overwhelming. As a man and a father with young children, I am acutely aware of the unique mental health challenges men often face. I understand the stigma, and the quiet shame, that can accompany asking for help. Many men learn to carry their struggles silently, so choosing to reach out is an act of courage. In addition to men, I welcome adolescents and adults from all walks of life to reach out to me.

You hold it together on the outside — but inside, it’s chaos. Anxiety, overthinking, self-doubt, a negative inner voice, and guilt are running the show. You beat yourself up, replay conversations, and wonder why you can’t just feel better. You’re tired of pretending you’re fine and carrying the mental load alone. You want to feel calm, grounded, and more in control of your life. In therapy, we’ll get to the root of what’s keeping you stuck and give you real tools to calm your mind, manage emotions, feel like yourself, and feel in control again — not just surviving, but finally living a life with clarity and confidence.

You’re not sure how you got here, but you are not where you want to be. It feels so hard to just keep going. Things have happened and you are finding it hard to cope – an important relationship has broken down, you’ve lost someone or something significant, you’ve received a tough diagnosis, your family is in transition.

I see the suffering behind the brave face you put on to get through the day. It’s a scary place, but I know that you can change, heal, and grow.
