I'm a Registered Psychotherapist, specializing in Expressive Arts, Compassionate Inquiry, The Clearing Method and Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy. Additionally, Essence and Creativity Coaching plus End-of-Life/Legacy Work round out the services I offer. In my private practice I see clients both in-person in the east end of Toronto and online locally and internationally.

My approach is somewhat eclectic. My fine art and science background, plus a lifetime of experiences, continually influence how I view the world and inform my approach to therapy. The modalities I offer can work together or separately and often dovetail into one another to best meet clients' therapy intentions.

I believe I come to this line of work honestly. I am no stranger to personal trauma and its repercussions and how profoundly this has affected me. This no doubt has had a major part to play in a lifetime of curiosity about what makes people tick, how their past relates to their present situations and how they can overcome difficulties in their lives however large or small.

I also know that people want and need to have a chance to share their story and have someone listen, really listen. Their experiences, perspectives and stories are part of who they are and influence how they function in this world. Too often they have never had anyone actually pay undivided attention without opinions and judgement.

Clients who get the most out of therapy with me are those who are willing to meet me halfway. They appreciate my active participation in sessions, my down to earth approach and aren’t bothered by the occasional colourful language that might fall out of my mouth. Sometimes there’s no better way to say what needs to be said.
