Provider information
Description
For 30 years I have provided counselling services to the HIV/AIDS and LGBTQ+ communities. As a gay man I have a particular interest in working with other gay/Bi/Queer men, but all are welcome. My approach is uncomplicated. I work from a client-centred, trauma-informed, psycho-social perspective, using a goal-oriented approach. I believe psychological problems are partly based on skewed ways of thinking that result from early messaging and learned patterns. I can support, assist, and challenge you in your problem-solving, and help you find healthier ways of coping.
