Your feelings matter. Therapy isn’t just for people who have it worse; it’s for anyone seeking support and growth. Whether you’re navigating a challenging period, recovering from a difficult experience, or seeking clarity in your relationships, you deserve the support to thrive. Perhaps you’re experiencing confusion in your relationships and need guidance to repair, strengthen, or end them. The pandemic may have turned your life upside-down, and now you’re trying to find balance again. Maybe you feel isolated, disconnected, or have experienced challenging relationships, seeking a therapist who understands. We’re social creatures, and everyone needs someone in their corner who genuinely cares. If you’ve felt alone or unsupported, it’s understandable to question whether anyone is there for you. Love and connection are universal needs. As an openly gay man living in Toronto with my husband, dog, and cat, I believe in the equality of all humans. I’m committed to and enjoy working with a diverse client base—you are welcome here. I have experience personally and professionally with more than 50% of my clients part of the BIPOC community. I work with all forms of relationships, straight and gay, monogamous, open, poly and I support couples through transitions such as the loss of a parent, major life changes, opening. What support do you or your relationship deserve to thrive? If you recognize the importance of investing in yourself with personal work, studies show that the relationship with your therapist is the greatest single predictor of positive therapy outcomes, who you work with matters even more than the modalities practiced. I will be happy to give you a 30 minute consult by phone or video call so you have time to feel what it would be like to work together, you can book it through my website or send me a message with your availability so we can find a time. If you call a plumber when you need help with your pipes, why not reach out to a therapist to nurture your emotional well-being? I specialize in relational psychotherapy for those impacted by relational trauma, which is most of us, and including narcissism. Research shows that loving relationships are key to a fulfilling life. Invest in yourself and your relationships today. Let’s work together to build a stronger, more satisfying life.
