I use various therapies including mindfulness, emotionally focused therapy, attachment-based, IFS, narrative, Brainspotting, dialectical behavioural-informed therapy, and Gottman.
Managing difficult feelings alone can be overwhelming. Do you feel stuck and hope for things to be better? Do you feel exhausted, frustrated, or guilty by trying to live up to your ideal self or other people’s expectations? Whether it is overcoming anxious thoughts, a difficult relationship, moving past your traumas, or simply wanting to understand yourself better, I take a holistic approach and offer several modalities to help you on your path to healing. I will walk alongside you on your journey, while providing a safe and non-judgmental space. Connection is the foundation of our work together.

From my own personal experience learning about my emotions, I created EmotionMatters Psychology where we believe emotions are part of the normal human experience. When we start to feel our emotions in a safe and supportive environment, we can begin to understand how we truly feel and open ourselves to healing, growth and change.

Do you find yourself frequently feeling anxious or battling with low moods? Perhaps managing your emotions feels like an uphill struggle, and even small challenges can feel overwhelming. You may also face difficulties in your relationships, struggling to connect with others or express your needs clearly. If you’ve experienced trauma or abuse, these feelings can be even more intense, affecting your self-esteem and how you perceive yourself. You desire to feel better, to handle your stress and emotions more effectively, and to build stronger, healthier relationships.

Hello and welcome! I'm a queer, transmasculine therapist with a background in health and community-based work, as well as in music, writing, and theatre. I draw upon a range of strengths-based and trauma-informed approaches in my therapy practice, with the intention of increasing my clients' capacity to safely connect to themselves and to move toward ways of living and relating that affirm them in their wholeness. I aim to be an active and supportive presence in the therapy process, and to work in a way that is guided by the political frameworks I value in my everyday life: socialism, anti-oppression, harm reduction, and abolition.

September UPDATE: Welcoming new clients. I often work with people in their 20s-40s navigating family & relational issues, people-pleasing, anxiety and lack of fulfillment despite all they’ve accomplished. A common thread is the pressure to keep it all together, while feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, plagued by self-doubt, or constantly waiting for the rug to be pulled out. If you’ve had to be strong to get through life, it can be especially hard to seek support. I understand that starting (or even returning to) therapy can be a leap outside the comfort zone for many and love supporting this process.

Are you feeling stuck, unfulfilled, or as though you aren't living authentically? I work closely with my clients to compassionately address issues of importance to them, such as identifying emotions and thought patterns, exploring difficult interpersonal dynamics, recognizing behavioural patterns and defenses, developing & implementing coping skills, deepening self-compassion, and making meaningful shifts in their lives. I am mindful that seeking out therapy and sharing your experiences feels vulnerable and intend to create a shared understanding of what may be happening for you in a non-judgmental way.

I know that we are all vastly complicated social, intellectual, spiritual, emotional, and physical beings. As a therapist, I am trained to be someone who helps others when challenges, questions, and difficulties in life need to be understood and resolved. I am a cis-gendered, heterosexual male with mixed ethnicity (Black and White) as well as a mixed cultural identity (Bermudian, Canadian, raised in China). My strengths include my ability to create a safe-feeling space, empathetic listening, compassionate speaking, strong intuitive understanding, and acuity at picking up non-verbal clues and connecting dots.

I understand that taking the first step towards healing can be scary, but I am committed to meeting you where you’re at and wading through the murky waters together. I operate from an anti-oppressive, feminist lens and take great care to cultivate a strong sense of trust with my clients. I typically work with folks who have been touched by addiction and/or trauma and are looking to explore the underlying issue while learning the tools needed to live a fulfilling life.
