I am a registered Psychotherapist with a special interest in helping men who can get ‘stuck’ and struggle with transitions in life such as retirement from sport, losing a job, divorce, re-locating or simply helping you to figure out a purpose for what comes next. My approach is simple; non-judgmental, open and empathetic to client experiences. I take a broad perspective to understanding my client experiences and integrate historical information to formulating a plan to help clients resolve problems now. Depression, anxiety disorders, loneliness, anger and substance abuse are key areas that I specialize in.

MSW, University of Windsor
Years in practice: 25+
Offers:  Remote Therapy

I enjoy working with men who are interested in their own personal growth and wellbeing.
I provide a safe and non-judgmental space where men can explore and gain further insight into their thoughts, feelings, sensations, and behaviours. My clients may be struggling with feelings of depression, anxiety, anger and irritability, low self esteem, or are having difficulties with assertiveness. They may also be struggling with a lack of clarity or sense of meaning and purpose in their lives, or are adjusting due to major life changes.
I try to help men break free from unhelpful patterns and sterotypes by discussing coping strategies and connecting them with their values, creativity, sense of humour, and what is most meaningful to them.
