“We are born in relationship, we are wounded in relationship, and we can be healed in relationship.” — Harville Hendrix. Psychotherapy is a professional relationship between a care seeker (client) and caregiver (therapist). The primary focus of this relationship is to serve the client’s interests and well-being. I endeavour to create this healing relationship by providing C.A.R.E. The model involves C- Conversations/Compassion, A- Attunement /Attention, R- Respect, and E – Empathy. My non-anxious presence in therapy helps my care-seekers to entrust themselves to the therapeutic/healing process.

Being a psychologist, who is also a married father of two, I understand life is often a balance between acceptance and change. I believe being a male therapist can help in this field: I've experienced (for example) connecting with male clients and their unique challenges, and I've also experienced working with female clients who have been poorly or outright abusively treated by some of the men in their lives. Being a compassionate and supportive male in their presence is often quite healing for these clients.

I help individuals manage anxiety and overthinking, self-esteem issues, work-life balance, and life transitions to better control their lives and feel more confident in their abilities. I also support individuals with relationship-related concerns through both individual and couples therapy sessions. As part of my practice, I often work with multicultural individuals through a culturally sensitive approach to help them navigate any conflicting cultural values so that they can embrace their unique identities.

Some of us are born with really big emotions and they can be difficult to rein in. Being sensitive is a double-edged sword. It comes with an extraordinary capacity to be lively, connected with others, generate insights, and experience life with great intensity. However, without solid regulation skills, we can also suffer tremendously and get lost on our path. This might describe you or one (or more) of your children. It may feel like the relationships in your family are strained or chaotic – in a way that is hard to get out of. You are not alone!

Males young and old experience anxiety, depression, trauma and other mood issues, though are less likely to seek help. ADHD and LD’s disproportionately affect males, disrupting their goals and relationships. Young males must navigate contradictory messages about what it means to be a man while managing their own emotional health. These issues tend to be at their worst during transitional life stages, such as changing schools, entering the workforce, middle life, and in new relationships.

Are you struggling with your mental health, or are you overwhelmed with life's challenges? People are more anxious, stressed, and worried than ever about managing their relationships, work, lifestyles, and life transitions. Your mind and body might experience long-term issues if you overlook your needs and don't take time for yourself. Pursuing a better life shouldn't be so challenging, and you deserve mental health support that aims to comprehend your experiences and needs and to help you achieve a happier and healthier life.
