You're a man who keep things in. You've realized you can't go on like this though. You need to move forward even though you feel like you're in quick-sand. Talking is a start.

Know that most of us grow up not knowing how to deal with emotions. This may have looked like not talking about them at all or given the message to suck it up. That doesn't make feelings go away though. When we don't deal with things, it shows up in other ways. It shows up as depression, anxiety, relationship issues, anger, or physical health symptoms.

If you're at a place where you know something needs to shift, reach out. We can get some tools to improve your mood and better manage emotions and relationships.

Common themes in my practice for individual therapy:

Isolating/ Keeping people at a distance
Difficulty sharing with others/ Expressing emotions
Men's mental health
Confidence/ Being too critical of yourself
Anger management challenges
Wanting a better relationship with your spouse or children
Stress management
Low mood/ Depression

Common themes for couples counselling:

Wanting to be more confident before a marriage commitment
There has been a hard life transition that has taken a toll on the relationship ex. children
Communication is just not working. You don't want to always be fighting.
Feeling so disconnected from your partner, and it just keeps getting more and more distant.

Online therapy only through a secure video platform for individuals & couples 18+ living in Ontario.
