About Brad
CASE LOAD FULL. Brad is not accepting new clients at this time. This online calendar is for returning clients only.
Your relationships are the most precious thing you have
That’s why my focus is on helping you connect with the people who matter most. By deepening your connection with yourself, you unlock the ability to connect at a deeper level with the people you care about.
Trust is the catalyst
When you come to counselling, you want change, and you want it fast. My clients trust me because of the benefits they experience in their lives and relationships. We'll collaborate on a plan that clarifies goals and maps out a path to achieving success.
Whether you're trying to get to the bottom of things, or just trying to stay on top of them, I can help!
I graduated from Briercrest Seminary in 2006 with a Master’s of Arts in Marriage and Family Counselling.
My approach is rooted in Family Systems Theory and mixes Dialogical Behavioural Therapy strategies with a Narrative conversational style.
I have earned a reputation with my clients for being warm and effective in treating anxiety, depression, stress, and all manner of relationship challenges.
People sometimes ask me why I chose to become a psychotherapist. After all, that’s not what guys like me are ‘supposed’ to be into. (Given that around 85% of Registered Psychotherapists are women, I suppose it’s a fair question.) Well, my ‘things changed when’ moment happened when I was 7 years old. My mom and sister died in a car accident. I never got to say goodbye.
One of the ways it changed me was it brought me face to face with the fragility of life. Sooner than I should have, I learned the importance of making the most of every day.
As a psychotherapist, my passion is helping people achieve the insights which empower them to live fuller, more satisfying lives. My favourite part of counselling is the look on someone’s face when they’re experiencing a light-bulb moment, and things click into place. My commitment to you is I will always give my best effort every session because I never know if it might be the last time I get to be with you.
Clients sometimes ask me, “Don’t you get exhausted doing this all day?” Nope. I find it energizing. Relationships are my Why, and psychotherapy is my How.
