Let me provide you with the tools to deal with depression, anxiety, stress, trauma, adjustment to illness, loss, grief, and relationship issues.
We all assume so many important roles in our lives, we often lose sight of who we are as people. This can be especially true in times of change like marriage, the birth of a child, illness, children moving out of the home or back in, divorce, difficulties at work or at home, and a death of a love one. Often we end up feeling lost, anxious, and unsure of what we want or even who we are. I believe we all have the strength to find our answers and sometimes just need a guide to find the way more easily. I specialize in depression, anxiety, relationship issues, and workplace stress using science-based strategies that get results.

We all hit a bump in the road from time to time and perhaps you've hit that bump. You might find yourself experiencing increased levels of stress or finding yourself constantly overthinking. Maybe your relationship is feeling strained; leaving you feeling alone, exhausted, and confused. Perhaps you have been interacting with your partner through overly intense or minimized emotions, triggered to react rather than stimulated to respond, stuck in what feels like a never-ending cycle of suffering and conflict. Maybe you have been feeling strongly conflicted, like different parts of yourself want different things or opposing beliefs.

As a counsellor at a sober living house for men, I met men from all walks of life, including those struggling with addiction, depression, relationship issues, and anxiety.
Disconnected. Broken. Hopeless. Powerless. Stuck. Many men tell me this is how they feel in our first session. Taking the first step to make change in your life and accept support can sometimes feel the most challenging and overwhelming. As a male therapist, I have learned that working with men requires a focus on practical solutions, a safe and comfortable environment, a therapist who understands the unique personal and societal challenges men face, an emphasis on self-compassion and self-acceptance, and a willingness to address underlying issues.

I offer a therapeutic relationship that can assist you in meaningful identity development such as healing from painful experiences from your past, and improving your relationships through the creation of healthy boundaries.
Do you struggle with worrying that you are inadequate? Perhaps you have been engaging in people-pleasing behaviours for as long as you can remember. Maybe your relationships have felt one-sided, and unfulfilling as a result since you often put your needs on the back-burner due to the fear of being criticized for being “too sensitive.” Or maybe this fear already came true, haunts you to this day, and now you do everything to avoid it. I wonder if you are tired of constantly comparing yourself to others highlight reels, and worrying that you are failing in some aspect of your life. If this sounds like you, know that you are not alone.

Chris works from a client-centred humanistic approach to support you in working towards individual goals, such as personal growth, relationship improvement, and healthy coping strategy.
Chris is a therapist who understands life and human existence can be difficult, lonely, stressful, and sometimes even helpless and hopeless. Chris is concerned about existential questions that everyone must face, human existence, the meaning of life, dying and death etc. In his view, to help clients contemplate those questions would shed light on the client’s deeper understanding/feelings about their lives, empowering them, and helping them get out of the existential trap they are in now.

While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
