About Michael

Hi I’m Michael,

I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) with the CRPO. My path to becoming a therapist has been shaped by years as an outdoor educator and wilderness guide. These experiences taught me the value of authentic, supportive relationships that create a safe environment for self-exploration and personal growth. I work to support people process their experiences and develop a greater sense of connection to themselves and others.

My style is rooted in a person-centred approach, and my priority is always to create a non-judgmental environment where you feel heard and safe to express yourself. No two people are exactly alike, and we will work together to find the approach that connects with what makes you, you. I am committed to ongoing learning and working from a trauma-sensitive and anti-oppressive framework. Whether you are facing a daunting life change, or feeling stuck or overwhelmed, therapy can help find new ways to look at challenges and harness your strengths to make meaningful change.

I know for some, meeting a therapist to talk face-to-face in an office or online can be uncomfortable. Maybe you feel more connected to your thoughts and feelings when you are on the move or engaged in an activity. Or if you’re like me, you feel most yourself when surrounded by trees, the smell of earth, and the sound of bird calls. I also offer walk-and-talk sessions that incorporate elements of activity and nature connection into therapeutic conversation. If this sounds like you, let’s talk about how we can take your therapy outside!
