I’m a Mental Health Therapist with a Master of Arts degree in Counselling Psychology.
My approach is mainly non-directive and client-centered, meaning I follow your lead and work at your pace. Along the way, I may bring in practical tools from mindfulness, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), or psychodynamic approaches depending on what best supports your needs and goals.
My therapeutic style weaves together Western tools like Socratic questioning with the mindful presence of Eastern traditions, drawing from Zen and Taoist thought. I aim to offer a space of gentle inquiry and compassionate challenge, where insight arises naturally and healing unfolds without force.
While I maintain a general practice, I have a particular interest in existential concerns, men’s mental health, child and adolescent development, and issues related to acculturation and adapting to new cultural environments.
Note that I’m a Qualifying Registered Psychotherapist (19157) with the CRPO in Ontario. In Quebec, I’m not yet recognized under the title ‘psychotherapist,’ but I hold the CCC designation (11253192), which is often covered under ‘clinical counsellor,’ ‘mental health practitioner,’ or ‘therapist’ in insurance plans.
