Hi, I’m Liam, registered social worker and psychotherapist in practice since 2018. I’ve helped many diverse individuals work through a range of issues, such as depression, anxiety, trauma, and addictions, and concerns relating to relationships, sexual orientation, gender identity, and sexual health.
My therapy approach is LGBTQ+ affirming, trauma-informed, and strengths-based. As a gay man, I’m passionate about helping LGBTQ+ individuals and our allies.
Trained in a number of effective therapies, I use an integrated approach based on what you bring to session, and in discussion with you. I’m trained in Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT), and Internal Family Systems (IFS). I also have a Master of Social Work with a specialization in Mental Health, and a Bachelor of Science in Psychology, both from The University of Toronto.
Personally, I have been through therapy and recovery from addiction myself, so I bring that lived experience to my work along with my professional training.
Outside of work, I like reading, watching movies, listening to music, and going for walks in nature.
