My Approach to Therapy

When we feel stuck and overwhelmed, other negative and self-limiting states can take shape, including depression and exhaustion. We can end up full of bad habits and desperate for change. Together, we will outline a pragmatic strategy to support sustainable, positive behavioral change, using a humanistic approach that centers on guiding and supporting you on your own unique personal growth path. I hold a Bachelor of Business Administration with a joint major in Psychology from Simon Fraser University. I have maintained this passion for the scientific approach and the study of human behavior for over 20 years. In 2013, I continued my formal education in psychology and later graduated with distinction with a Master’s in Applied Psychology from the University of Liverpool. This was further complemented by master’s-level clinical counselling coursework from Yorkville University last year. I have always enjoyed continuous learning, and with a lengthy professional background in business spanning almost two decades, I attained multiple financial designations and certificates, including becoming a Canadian Certified Investment Manager and Registered Investment Specialist. My academic backgrounds in finance and psychology have contributed greatly to my ongoing pursuit of research in the field of behavioral finance, as well as my work with individuals as a financial coach. Some of these roles have given me the opportunity to live and work internationally. I have always enjoyed travelling, and I have spent extended periods of time in Spain, the U.K., Mexico, and Colombia. I believe that the diversity in my professional roles, along with the experiences gained from living abroad, has broadened my perspective and made me more adaptable. I was born and raised in Vancouver, B.C., and I am the oldest of four boys. In addition to travelling, I enjoy fitness, studying, languages, art, golf, and boxing.
