Hello there! Thanks for stopping by.
If you’re reading this, odds are there’s something in your life that you’re currently struggling with or would like to improve and you’re looking for someone who can help you along this part of your life’s journey. The help that I offer is built upon an individualized approach and leverages techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy and solution focused brief therapy. Therapy with me will be the start of a journey that sees you work towards not only achieving the goals set out in therapy, but also giving you the tools and techniques to try and navigate the twists and turns of the journey of life independently.
One area that I have experience working through is the exploration of identity and meaningfulness. Whether this be navigation of LGBTQAI+ topics or concerns under this umbrella (e.g., exploration of identity, acceptance of oneself and feelings, finding community, etc.), managing workplace burnout, and Men's issues or concerns.
As for me as a person, I am a dogged optimist and believe that, come what may, there are paths forward for growth and for development however miniscule or large they may be.This quirk of my personality was grown across the highs and lows of my own life, a personal journey through therapy, and a long dance with finding who exactly I am that continues to this day. I hope to use what I’ve learned along my journey of life to help others in whatever way I can.
For some more specific details about myself, I’ve worked for several years as a behavioural therapist helping individuals on the spectrum achieve their goals for academics, social behaviour, and for emotional regulation. Beyond an extensive and applied knowledge of working with neurodivergent populations and some of their struggles, this experience has taught me the value of meeting people where they are in life rather than where they “should” be. Beyond my past work and experiences, I am passionate about helping those that are currently suffering from depression, anxiety, and trauma and have a wealth of knowledge regarding best treatment practices for these mental illnesses.
That’s all I’ve got about me. Take care and, if I don’t have the pleasure of hearing from you, best of luck!
