I aim to help clients identify the underlying patterns and behaviours holding them back.

If you’re reading this, you’re probably navigating through some tough stuff right now. Maybe you’re feeling overwhelmed, down, or just plain stuck. I get it. Life can be challenging, and it’s easy to feel like you’re drowning in it all. When you’re battling depression or anxiety, even the simplest tasks can feel monumental. The chores pile up, homework or tasks accumulate, and facing the day can be daunting. It’s easy to get caught in a cycle of negative thinking where you seem to hit up against an insurmountable wall every day. But I want to share something simple yet powerful that might help - the idea of embracing small wins.

I work with individuals who are looking to better understand their personal and social identity. Emphasis in the counselling field is often given to learning new thought patterns and coping skills. While I do this in my practice and find it effective, I also discuss the concept of 'unlearning' and its importance for growth, allowing us to create a new foundation which is centred on self-awareness. When we unlearn these 'autopilot' ways of responding to situations, we can create a reality where we are actively in the driver’s seat to create the lifestyle and connections that we find authentic, meaningful and long-lasting.

I think everyone should have a therapist. I realize how self-serving that sounds, but if we see a medical doctor on a regular basis (yes, you should do that too!) for our physical health, why wouldn’t we have someone in our pocket for mental health as well? If there is a stigma around mental health, there is stigma of having a therapist as well. I regularly meet with people that have never accessed a mental health professional and after one session you can see the anxiety leave them as I help take away those social pressures and instead focus on you, that’s what I want, to be team YOU!

My job is to meet you where you are, while offering practical tools, human connection, and insight specific to your goals and needs.

Have you ever been told that you are being ‘too sensitive’, or ‘too much’? Do you feel overwhelmed when you try to express your emotions and end up feeling anxious about them instead? Perhaps you are struggling with negative beliefs about yourself or have overpowering emotions that have kept you suffering for a long time. What makes these concerns more difficult is feeling that close ones in your life may not understand or accept your struggles. Through striking a balance between acceptance and learning new ways to manage emotions, you will have the opportunity to live the life you value.

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.
