About Me
About Me
I am an Individual, Couple and Family Psychotherapist in both central Toronto and online serving all of Ontario virtually. I am regulated by the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario and a certified member of the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association. I have been practicing for 20 years in private practice, non-profit community health centres as well as other organizations. I have had the gift of working with Aboriginal and Two-spirit communities intensively. I am married to an amazing woman. I am a spiritual person and believe life is an incredible journey and a gift. My Masters Degree included intense training on using spirituality in session. Sometimes we need help to learn how to live healthier lives and be open to different teachers along the way. I have worked with many cultures, religions and spiritualities. The people who have had their lives transformed and enriched by Spirit, can trust this part of their lives will be honoured in our treatment plan. I would be honoured to have you make me a part of your journey by contacting me.
I am an experienced Psychotherapist comfortable working with diverse presenting concerns such as addictions, trauma and relationship issues. I have also fulfilled several other professional roles including: Program Developer, Crisis/Intake Worker, Group Facilitator, have held supervisory and management roles and given presentations. I moved to Toronto from Ottawa, Ontario where my last full-time role was as a Clinical Therapist at an Aboriginal health centre. I then opened a private practice in Downtown Toronto. My solo practice expanded into a clinic serving all of Ontario.
It is important to me that you get high quality service and feel in control of your healing and therapeutic sessions. I am open to anything you need to say and we will chat along the way to make sure your goals are being met.
I have extensive knowledge of many psychological/therapeutic theories specifically Attachment and Systems theories. My approach predominantly includes emotion-focused techniques (EFT) as well as a more integrated approach that I use with clients, such as those appropriated from the cognitive and multicultural approach(es). I am trained in the expressive therapies such as Sandtray and Art Therapy. I am able to offer brief short-term solution-focused therapy if preferred, or if insurance coverage is limited.
