Therapists in V3B
My passion for counselling came from both personal and professional experience in asking for support and supporting others. I believe connection to others, along with a safe non-judgemental space to be heard can allow us to begin the journey in growth, healing and self exploration. I believe all our emotions, behaviours, and thoughts serve a purpose – even those we perceive as negative- and that by understanding that purpose, we can better understand ourselves and our relationships.

Hi! I'm Cam. Many of my clients come to me after having done meaningful therapy already— they’ve made progress, but still long to feel the changes more deeply in their everyday life and relationships. That “something missing” is often the inner child: the part of us still holding unmet needs, fear, or shame.

Seeking therapy takes courage. Many people come to counselling feeling overwhelmed, unsure where to start, or worried about being judged.
My role is to meet you exactly where you are with warmth, honesty, and genuine care.

I work with cultural sensitivity and curiosity, honoring how family, identity, and lived experiences shape who you are. I look forward to working with you!

You are human, which means you are complicated, full of contradictions, and probably carrying more than you let on. Maybe you feel stuck, in your thoughts, your relationships, your career, or just life in general. You might be a young adult navigating independence, a university student drowning in expectations, or a professional battling self-doubt and burnout. Maybe anxiety keeps you up at night, relationships feel more confusing than they should, or you're just exhausted by the weight of figuring everything out on your own. You don’t have to navigate this alone, let’s talk.

Do you struggle with unhelpful thoughts, difficult emotions, and challenging relationships?

Despite our best efforts, sometimes we still feel stuck and need support in making the changes necessary to create a better life. I can help! I am trained in both individual and couples therapy, as relationships are often a source of profound distress for us.
