The aim of my practice is to provide you with a safe, inclusive and supportive space. Where you can share your story and explore where you'd like for your story to go - all with a gentle emphasis on your overall well-being. Your first step of reaching out for counselling is a difficult one and yet opens you up to experience positive change. Exploring your story through counselling, my goal is to walk with you in our sessions. Our sessions will focus on you - your challenges, your goals, the impact that they have in your life, and creating a space to allow for change and growth.

I tend to see many physicians, psychiatrists, residents and medical students through word of mouth referrals. I also provide clinical supervision to other counsellors. I specialize in treating trauma and adverse events but common challenges such as burnout, low mood, feelings of insecurity, self-doubt, fears of rejection, abandonment, and failure are also routine in my work. I also work with many teens, post-secondary students, indigenous youth and do couples and family work.

While recovery is challenging, one of my greatest passions as a counsellor is helping clients develop tools to overcome disordered eating. My approach is compassionate and collaborative, using ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) in sessions.

Having worked as a therapist at multiple eating disorder treatment programs (including treating ARFID), I apply this expertise into my work. I also incorporate body liberation and Health at Every Size in working with clients.

Hi, I'm Scott! I have spent the past 18 years in Vancouver as a therapist working with children, youth, families and adults struggling with mental health issues, substance use, trauma, anger, grief, as well as isolation and disconnection. I have volunteered working with young offenders in the prison system, and with suicidal individuals through the services of the Vancouver Crisis Centre. Connectedness plays an important role in both my personal and professional life. At times, finding similar thoughts and opinions has helped me feel human. Other times, seeking different ideas and people has helped open my mind to new possibilities.

As a Registered Clinical Counsellor/Psychotherapist with 25 years of experience working with individuals, couples, and families, I use a client-centred, integrative approach to address the therapeutic goals of clients. No one should be defined by their diagnoses, and rather than placing emphasis on what is not working, I collaborate with clients to determine what actions can be taken to improve on their circumstances. All individuals exist along their own continuum of mental health, and with adequate supports and a focus on holistic well-being, every client can be nurtured towards growth and a healthier sense of self.
