I'm a registered psychotherapist specializing in men's mental health, relationship challenges and existential doubt.

When I was studying jazz piano at Berklee College of Music, I developed tendonitis in both arms from overuse. What started as a physical injury soon became an emotional one. I grew anxious about whether I would ever play again, and that fear began to affect every area of my life.

Through psychotherapy and meditation, I began to understand how deeply thoughts and emotions influence our bodies. After I recovered physically and psychologically, I reflectively questioned "How could my mind create such suffering, and such healing?"

To investigate, I began studying psychology at the University of Toronto while continuing my career as a musician and educator. I realized I wanted to bring what I'd learned in therapy and mindfulness training to others, especially those struggling with pain, anxiety, and purpose the way I once had. That realization inspired me to pursue psychotherapy training and begin my next chapter.

Psilocybin-assisted therapy brings together all of the passions that led me to this moment: music, meditation, and healing. It is my honour to accompany people on their journey inward, as they come to understand themselves at the deepest level, and realize the capabilities of consciousness.
