Each week we unpack the complexity of a lived life. Our experiences of shame, grief, sadness, loneliness are global and yet we feel so isolated in them. I am a Canadian Certified Psychotherapist with a therapeutic focus on loss of self-identity, life challenges, anxiety and the general stuckness we all encounter at one point in our lives. This show will bring levity and humility while we unravel what it means to be human and in connection with others.

    Everyday Therapy: The Weekly Unravel Men's Mental Health Month

    June is Men's Mental Health Awareness month and so let's talk about it. We know a lot is going on individually, socially and politically that is rooted in the dysfunction of patriarchy and men aren't not doing well. They haven't been for a while. We are interested in the Manosphere, how the dysfunction shows up in their lives and the implications of it on them and others around them. What do we need to do to help men take control and redefine what it means to be a strong man?

    Everyday Therapy: Unraveling the Pillars of Health with Hilary Zeeuwen

    As counselling therapists we can assume that everyone has a shared understanding on pillars of health. Sometimes it's surprising how people over look the most important aspects of health.

I think you're going to like Hilary; she wears many hats.

    Everyday Therapy - Unraveling AI and Mental Health?

    Should you? Are you? How is that going? Using AI is quickly becoming a go-to for many people to address their mental health issues. We don't know enough about the long term impacts of it. I have feelings about this because while I do see a use for it, I do feel strongly that parameters need to be placed by each person on what you are expecting from it.

    Everyday Therapy: Unraveling How We Holding Ourselves Back

    Feeling stuck in your life is such a deeply normal human experience. It shows up in the chair every week for me.

The list goes on. Let's talk about the anatomy of hesitation, the arenas where this shows up, where it could come from and how it impacts our mental health. I also share a deep quote by an activist bible, Days of War, Nights of Love. You gotta hear it.

    Everyday Therapy: Unraveling The Thing About Boundaries Is...

    We often find ourselves wondering why we feel so taken advantage of or disrespected in our relationships. We can find ourselves emotionally exhausted and/or depressed.
