Most of my clients want to enjoy life more, they are tired of constantly feeling the strain, the stress that sucks the life out of them, or the constant nightmares caused from various types of Trauma.

My ideal client is someone who is ready for change but unsure how to proceed. They are courageous by reaching out for help and trusting in being vulnerable to a complete stranger. They are someone who builds trust slowly with me as a professional and who is committed to achieving their goal. They know the road to success will not be easy but they are trusting enough to return for the next session even if the last one ended badly. This client is confident enough to give me their feedback regarding interventions or approaches they didn't enjoy in session.

With a deep commitment to men's work, I help men, and people who care about men, make sense of issues such as emotions, sexuality, relationships, parenting and stress.
There are so many issues that men experience that many therapists do not pay attention to. I get it, it's not easy managing all your different roles. I assume, as a kid, you were taught that " men don't cry". Having no emotions, or "just deal with it" was encouraged by others. Now, as an adult, you may be accused of "being heartless" or "emotionless". Maybe you feel lost, angry, or confused. You've been through a lot, and there isn't a place for you to work to make sense of everything that is going on. You've tried so many strategies, but your attempts only leave you feeling like a failure

My name is Matthew (Matt) and I come with over 16 years of experience in the mental health and addictions field. I prefer an eclectic and integrative psychotherapeutic approach to meet individualized needs. Counselling often involves talk therapy; however, I also want to help you find or rediscover your "wise self" to build your capacity to manage mental wellness, so it is not managing you. I can support a wide range of issues and my specialty population areas are youth, post-secondary students, and those in conflict with the law. I am currently accepting clients 16+ years of age.

Sometimes people get stuck. Individuals and couples come to me for counselling to talk about a variety of problems - things like conflict in relationships, anxiety, depression, overwhelming stress, abuse, grief, vocational crisis, or anger. A counselling relationship helps people to move from understanding issues to co-creating solutions - solutions that shrink and manage problems. I use an integrative approach, drawing on different counselling methods depending on what works best for the client, including practices from cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT), narrative therapy, and solution-based therapy. I can help you to move through difficult times with courage, accountability, and positive resolve.

If you decide to respond, please use only the most basic of generalities to describe your situation, this to preserve your privacy with electronic communication. Substance use, trauma and other mental health issues can do horrible damage to someone's quality of life. Parenting a teenager as they go through the chaos of drug use or mental health struggles can be immensely challenging also. Neither I nor anyone else here can make any promises, however, actual change, decreasing damage, processing things or at the very least adding another support, are utterly realistic possibilities with psychotherapy.

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.
