"And you pick whatever lock is presented to you.

And once one lock is picked,

all the other locks become vulnerable."

Milton H. Erickson

​

Welcome!

I have been in private practice in Ontario, Canada, for more than twenty years, helping individuals facing significant emotional challenges — including those who did not respond to traditional psychotherapy. My approach, focused on personality restructuring within a brief, Jungian-oriented model, has been featured in the media and presented at professional and academic conferences.

​

I am a published author, co-founder of the Milton H. Erickson Institute of Toronto, and served as a senior consultant at the 2015 TED Talks in British Columbia.

​

Coverage and Availability

If you are a resident of Ontario, Canada, and your extended health benefits cover the services of a Registered Social Worker (RSW), my services may be fully or partly reimbursable.

I work online only. As I am now semi-retired, I primarily see long-term or returning clients but occasionally take on new individuals when there is a strong fit.

​

Is My Work Right for You?

​

My practice is best suited to clients seeking focused, time-limited therapy to address a specific mental-health concern or to pursue personal or professional growth. Sessions typically occur weekly, with clear goals and measurable outcomes.

 

A good fit if you:

• Want to work on self-understanding, balance, and purposeful change

• Are open to an integrative approach drawing on depth psychology and wisdom traditions

• Prefer structured, goal-oriented therapy rather than long-term open-ended counselling

 

Not a good fit if you:

​​

• Are seeking therapy related to motor-vehicle accidents (MVA), disability claims, custody evaluations, or any court-mandated or expert-witness service

• Require crisis counselling, or experience significant emotional dysregulation requiring frequent or emergency contact

• Need support for substance use, gender transition, or gender identity exploration — these important areas are best served by clinicians with specialized training and experience

• Are seeking couples, family, or child therapy

My schedule sometimes requires last-minute changes, so I do not take on crisis-management cases.

​

A Note on Professional Status

​

I am a Registered Social Worker, not a Registered Psychotherapist. Please confirm with your insurance provider that your plan covers services from an RSW. Sessions are payable via Interac e-transfer. I do not accept credit-card payments at this time.

 

Next Steps

If you feel my approach may be right for you, please begin by listening to a short introductory audio describing how I work [link here]. You are welcome to reach out by email (recommended) or phone to arrange a brief conversation to determine fit. I occasionally maintain a waiting list.
