In addition, I have attended extensive training on marriage and family therapy (specifically in high conflict, power imbalances, abuse and infidelity), trauma and recovery, EMDR, eating disorders, abuse & domestic violence, Type 1 diabetes & treatment adherence, criminal behaviour and rehabilitation, parenting and parent-child behavioural adjustment, sexuality, substance misuse/addictions and separation and divorce family re-adjustment. I am actively involved in developing, training and delivering effective mental health, marriage enrichment and parenting workshops.

I provide in-service training for public and private organizations across Canada and deliver inspiring and informative seminars at universities, and colleges, to corporations and business work teams. I also provide counselling and psychotherapy supervision, consultation and training.

I am a registered social worker (RSW) with the OCSWSSW, is a registered psychotherapist with the CRPO and has been a member of the Ontario Association of Social Workers and Canadian Association of Social Workers since 1990.

I provide consultation toward developing and delivering effective mental health, health and social service initiatives.

I am happily married to Susan, my loving wife of almost forty years. We have three adult children. I have coached in the NASC soccer association for fifteen years and continue to play on a local adult league.  My interests outside the office include camping, kayaking, hiking, and guitar.

I’m passionate about supporting men as they navigate the unique pressures of work, relationships, and identity. My approach is straightforward and compassionate, creating a space where men can speak openly without judgment. Together, we work on building emotional awareness, resilience, and practical strategies for handling stress and life’s challenges with strength and authenticity.
