Male Therapists in Edmonton, AB

It is my belief that people have the strengths and abilities to navigate through life's challenges. The question is, "How do you use what you already have to meet life's challenges?" I work with individuals, groups, families, teams, and organizations collaboratively towards shared goals and outcomes that are rooted in evidence-based practices. Sessions are interactive, transparent, and optimistic. An eclectic approach rooted in Individual Psychology and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy offers the versatility for a culturally sensitive, non-judgmental, and an efficient working relationship.

You struggle to feel like you're good enough. No matter how hard you try it feels like you don't measure up and you're always falling short. It's hard to find a space where you can truly belong and be yourself. Sometimes you feel overwhelmed by your life and relationships. Other times you feel completely hopeless. You are ready to let go of the belief that you were never good enough and begin to feel comfortable being yourself. Therapy can be a space where you can show up just as you are and learn to love yourself. It's your time to take off the masks, let go of the pressure, and begin to connect with your true self.

Are you struggling with emotional and physical reactivity that you cannot seem to change? Have you experienced trauma that continues to impact you? Do you feel trapped by what feels like insurmountable challenges that you have not yet learned how to cope with and overcome? Anxiety, depression, physical ailments, parenting challenges, relational difficulties, grief and loss, and so many more areas of suffering can pull us away from the life that we long to live. My aim is to support you through the challenges you are facing, equip you with new tools and strategies, and support you to move towards the life that you want to be living.

Individual clients come to see me when there is recognition of loss of control of their moods and behaviors. Difficulty with boundaries, honesty and building secure attachments create a lonely and isolated life. Depression and anxiety can be so overwhelming and we often don't want to feel like a burden to friends or family so we keep it to ourselves. I help my clients find themselves and find hope. I work with couples who are experiencing breakdowns in communication, loss of trust due to infidelity or other secrets and help them navigate the way through the repair process.

I work collaboratively with clients to address a myriad of issues including depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, substance use, relationship issues, and emotional struggles. I approach my clients with warmth, humour, and empathy as we identify therapeutic goals and plan for success. I strive to create a safe, trusting relationship where you feel comfortable in exploring the thoughts, beliefs, and patterns that may be affecting your well-being. I work with a wide variety of people from adolescents/youth and adults through all of life's stages.

Life can be complex, decisions can be difficult, and stress can become debilitating. However, the overwhelming aspects of life can be intentionally navigated, and even leveraged towards better outcomes. If you're feeling buried by the stressors and complexities of life, it may be time to seek some therapeutic insights.

I am a compassionate and non-judgmental Registered Provisional Psychologist with over 12 years of experience. In therapy, clients are able to set achievable goals by discussing their personal issues along with the challenging and complex circumstances they are struggling with. Together, we work towards these goals using an Integrative Psychotherapy approach that combines Cognitive-Behavioural, Acceptance & Commitment, Internal Family System, Dialectical Behavioural, Psychodynamic and Gestalt Therapies, and Clinical Hypnotherapy.

Life’s journey can often present challenges that feel overwhelming to navigate alone. I recognize the bravery it takes to confront these hurdles and within the sanctuary of the therapeutic space I provide, your experiences will not only be acknowledged but deeply respected. You deserve a place where your voice is heard, your experiences validated and your journey supported. Together, let’s unravel the complexities, fortify your resilience, and chart a course toward healing and fulfillment.

I specialize in working with anxiety, depression, emotional difficulties, and interpersonal difficulties. However, I have worked with clients on a variety of concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, interpersonal difficulties, emotion regulation, stress, grief, and others.

Whether we believe it or not, our lived experiences have created a core belief about ourselves and influences a core language we use to describe ourselves, which prevents us from being our authentic self or the desire to change. Here's a truth, you have permission. You have the permission to change, to grow, to develop, to advocate for what you need, create new habits and, to unlearn and learn again. The beauty in the journey is you don’t have to do it alone and I’m here to journey with you.

I bring a passion for helping others navigate life’s challenges and uncovering their inherent and inner strengths.

Finding the right psychologist, someone you can create a meaningful working relationship with, is essential to therapy. I hope to make you feel welcome and supported while exploring challenging areas in your life to find real solutions. Everyone has the potential to live a happy, healthy life. Support from a psychologist can be the missing step toward improving mental health and meeting personal goals. I approach therapy with optimism, understanding that while difficulties and setbacks are inevitable, with the right support, everyone can develop the skills needed to navigate challenges and achieve a more fulfilling life.

Thank you for taking this step of reading my bio. What you are going through matters and what led you here is important. I work with people struggling with relationship concerns as well as those experiencing anxiety, depression, loneliness, grief, loss, divorce, parenting concerns, frustration, anger, irritability, low mood, ruminating thoughts, or trouble sorting through difficult thoughts and feelings.

You’re exhausted all the time, but struggle to sleep. You try to relax but it never works and you end up snapping at family/friends. No motivation which leads to procrastination. “What’s wrong with me?” you might ask yourself. "I don’t even feel like myself anymore". Dreading to go to work. Even hobbies or hanging out with friends doesn't bring much joy. Everything just seems so draining! You feel overwhelmed, not good enough, and irritable. Feeling lost and stuck because nothing you try seems to work. You want someone that "gets it" and can help you generate some practical solutions for your relationships, work, and life.

I specialize in psychoeducational and psychological assessments and have nearly a decade of experience completing work privately, in schools, for government, and insurance companies. The assessments I complete help to provide insight into academic, occupational and personal difficulties, which can support treatment goals and other supports.

If you are struggling with anxiety, post-traumatic experiences, occupational stress injuries or stress I believe that I can help you develop skills and techniques to help overcome the difficult times. Everyone has the ability to learn and overcome challenges but sometimes we need some help create a plan to see the changes we want in our lives. If your willing to work with me then I promise to do my best to help you out or find someone more suited to help you. As a current member of the Canadian Armed Forces I believe that I can bring a unique perspective for other members seeking help for mental health.
