Veritas is Latin for truth, which is a central value in my therapeutic approach. People have a tendency to mask what they are actually experiencing, subscribing instead to behaviour dictated by social norms. Over time, suppressed emotional suffering manifests itself in disorders such as anxiety, explosive anger, panic attacks, addiction, and depression. While many modern therapies focus on treating surface symptoms (band-aid solutions), I believe in getting to the root of the suffering to help clients gain insight so that they can truly grow, heal, and flourish.

I approach therapy with lightness and humour as I focus on helping clients with substance use, anger management, anxiety, depression, ADHD, and life dissatisfaction.
Each of us occasionally needs help identifying solutions to life’s struggles. Other times, despite knowing solutions, we cannot take action. Regardless of current situations, emotional struggles, or past experiences, therapy helps us on a path of discovery to identify challenges and co-create solutions. I believe counselling allows us to work together, creating a life with increased happiness, emotional stability and fulfilling relationships.

This discomfort and emotional pain may be avoided but when left un managed will make choices for a person all day and every day.
Availability week of October 7. Let me help you to see what is inside. This is sometimes called “inner work”. It is getting to know yourself at a much deeper level. It is seeing what is difficult and sometimes uncomfortable to see. The benefit however, is that increased self-awareness leaves you with more options. And when you are able to connect more deeply and authentically with yourself, this connection also becomes available in relationship to others. One of the primary tasks of inner work is to confront inner pain (ie. anxiety, depression, guilt, hurt, trauma, grief...) and to find what is needed for resolution.

reach out now, many clients have thanked me later and told me it was the best thing they have ever done.
I am looking for motivated clients who are willing to take action to resolve whatever needs to change in their life. My typical clients are looking for relief from stress, anxiety, depression, negative emotions, or difficult life situations. Some of them are struggling with compulsive behaviours and feel out of control. Others are in a relationship but things are not as good as they can be and they want more. Some of my clients are just looking to talk to someone who listens well, validates them and gives them another perspective. Sometimes they feel stuck and need tools, support and encouragement to help them move forward.

I have travelled and experienced many different cultures, so I bring curiosity, compassion, and openness into our sessions.
I see you have courage and hope - which is why you are here looking for help. You use your inner strength every day to hide your inner thoughts and feelings from others. You hear and think about words like anxiety, burnout, or depression. Maybe you secretly wonder where you fit in with everyone else, what you should be doing, or where to start. Maybe you don’t feel seen or heard by others. These thoughts feel like a burden that keep you up at night, creep into your thoughts, create self-doubt, or impact your relationships with others. Maybe you have already tried speaking with someone and it didn’t help. That’s okay. Keep up hope.

We all encounter situations at times that seem too difficult to deal with alone. Situations that force us to reconsider what we've grown accustomed to, or question who we are.

Male Counsellors
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.
