I am passionate about walking with other humans as they navigate the full spectrum of their experience. As a trauma informed, holistic counsellor, I support clients with embodiment. I specialize in grief and loss, body image, disordered eating and LGBTQ+ topics. My approach is informed by Existentialism, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Somatic Therapy, Yoga (200HR), Mindfulness/Meditation, and the natural world. I aim for thoughtful and creative connection, drawing on my formal education and the depth of my personal healing journey to facilitate conversations that honour mind, body, and soul.

Life has its ups and downs, and sometimes things can feel too much to be with on your own. I support people to better understand themselves, deal with life's stresses in more constructive ways, and foster meaningful connections. As a gay man who grew up in a conservative Christian environment, I especially enjoy working with men, queer folks, and those who have experienced religious trauma. Further, I work with couples looking to improve their communication, deepen their emotional intimacy, and work through hurts and betrayals.

I believe that every client is innately aware where they need to go (in therapy) to heal themselves. My role is to use my skills to help them along in that process. I meet clients where they are at recognizing that may change from session to session. We start with their goal(s) for counselling and work from there. I don't "need" to know anything in particular before we start. I find that with a trusting relationship, a client will share all that is relevant in order to attain their goal(s).

Helping people to find their way through mid-life’s challenges and transitions. Life can be a wonderful mix of challenges and opportunities. Lately it may feel like mostly demands and responsibilities have been piling up on your plate, getting heavier by the day. You're doing your best to push through it, to show up– after all you have some life experience under your belt. You put your best efforts forward, but it’s not always clear how to navigate the challenges ahead. You find your mind spinning in circles around the question “how did I get here?”It might be quite overwhelming and lonely on this journey.

I support folks to reclaim, explore, and practice coming back to our bodies, feeling feelings, expanding relational possibilities, and embodying permission and more choices toward dignity, aliveness, connection, tenderness, ease, and pleasure. I approach therapeutic work from healing-centred, intersectional feminist, harm reduction, and decolonial frameworks and practices, and draw from interpersonal neurobiology, parts work, politicized somatics, and lineages of energetic medicine.

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.

My therapeutic approach is client-centred, incorporating elements of evidence-based practices to provide individualized care. As a pre-licensed therapist, I am offering a sliding scale and free counselling. My ideal client is someone looking for a non-judgmental space where they can feel heard and understood while we explore their thoughts and concerns and work toward processing their experiences. This may include someone dealing with symptoms of stress, depression, or anxiety who is motivated to find coping strategies, build resilience, and enhance their overall well-being.

I work with clients seeking psychoeducational assessments. I have had the opportunity to work with individuals from a broad array of cultures and backgrounds.

In our multicultural society many people are attracted to those of different backgrounds. Their accent, exotic appearance, or unfamiliar relationship style are often irresistible. But the very things that attract can also create problems.
Multicultural romance often ends in heartbreak.
In our sessions, my clients and I work as a team to appreciate the challenges and to resolve them. The goal of therapy is for singles and couples to make their relationship with their partner the best that it can be.
