Maybe you've tried this before. You've been to therapy and you've talked about your issues but you don't really feel like you've healed your issues. Or maybe you've gotten to the point in therapy where you feel stuck. I get it. The anxiety and self doubt. Drinking/eating/scrolling too much. Constantly running to attain what we think we're supposed to chase after. Wondering why some of our reactions and behaviours happen. Hating some aspects of ourselves and really not showing up in a way that we know we can. And seeking answers to all of this and just not finding it in therapy.

While it is not uncommon to experience distressing emotions, maladaptive thoughts, and difficult life events, we don’t always have the tools or strategies to manage. Inability to cope can make us feel ashamed, alone and overwhelmed. As a therapist, I work with my clients collaboratively to build a trusting therapeutic relationship so that individuals feel supported throughout the course of therapy. I will always provide a non-judgmental and welcoming space so that you can be the most authentic version of yourself while feeling safe enough to do so.

I believe in treatment from the biopsychosocial perspective. From the biological perspective - pain management, nutrition, exercise, sleep; the psychological perspective - education, stress management, emotional regulation; and the social aspect - relationships, conflict resolution, and more. I provide an open and non-judgmental space where we can explore your life, thoughts, behaviour, emotions and relationships, and together work towards reducing unwanted thoughts and feelings. I also encourage nature therapy, where you reconnect with nature and improve your sense of peace.

Among all the things we want for ourselves, perhaps happiness tops the list for most. But life may not always turn out the way we expect, and that can hurt. There may be times when we feel stuck, angry, lost, confused, unhappy, or overwhelmed. What do we do then? In such times, I like to remind myself that “Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional” (Haruki Murakami). This perspective offers us strength to move towards inner healing and positive change. Seeking therapy is brave work, and a beautiful way to practice self-love; when you truly love yourself, you value who you are and can grow towards the best version of yourself.

Are you feeling stuck, rejected, or undervalued while you pursue what you want in your life? Do you find yourself trapped in a cycle of comparing yourself to others, feeling inferior, and struggling to fit into societal norms? You're not alone. Many of us have beliefs from childhood that dictate what success should look like (i.e., “get married," "go to university”). If these expectations don't align with your desires, it can lead to panic, overwhelm, and a sense of not belonging. Together, we can challenge these beliefs and uncover the person you truly are, without fear of judgment from others. This is your life, not theirs.

Chad is an award winning therapist who doesn't actually enjoy writing in the third person. My main goal is to help people know how to be emotionally healthy using a combination of tools I've created through life experience and modalities like solution focused therapy, CBT, EFT, and DBT. I tend to be a bit different than traditional therapists as I often have more laughs than tears in my office, but either way, my hope is to help people feel cared about and safe enough to share their lives. Men (or anyone) who are nervous about therapy or people who have had a bad experience with it tend to really like my down to earth style.
