Are you struggling with feelings of....

If so, you are not alone.

I work with people in Ontario and help them better navigate the daily impact of Anxiety and ADHD while exploring proven tools and techniques.

Why Work With Me?

Hi, I’m Brendan. Some people know me as “The Anxiety Guy”, or “The ADHD Guy”. I work with men who are having difficulties with the daily impact of Anxiety and/or ADHD. I’m here to work alongside you to reduce your feelings of overwhelm, stress, and anxiety. I pride myself on being someone who “gets it” because I have been there myself. 

As someone who has ADHD, lives with chronic health conditions and has had an anxiety disorder, I understand what it feels like to deal with everything that comes with these challenges and struggles. I won’t just be working with you with things I have read in a book once or heard in a podcast last year. The strategies and techniques that I use are tried-and-tested techniques that I have actually used on a daily or weekly basis. 

I understand that it likely feels like you are stuck & things will never get better. But there is hope, and you are not alone. I am committed to supporting and working alongside you and will listen, empathize, and guide you towards healing.

WHY CHOOSE ME

I have been there, and I "get it"

I won’t just tell you to try harder, stop being lazy, or don’t worry about it. You have tried that, and it doesn’t work. I have spent decades in the trenches gathering the exact tools, lifestyle adjustments, and system shifts that allowed me to train my mind, face my feelings, and find hope.  I bring that lived experience directly into my practice to meet you where you’re at. Together we will:

Understand how your mind works

Learn ways to motivate yourself

Learn how to manage your emotions

Figure out what you really care about

FAQS

Frequently Asked Questions

Therapy is a collaborative process where we work together to understand your emotions, patterns, and behaviors. It provides you with a comfortable and nonjudgmental space where we develop practical coping strategies, improve your relationships, and gain clarity on personal challenges.

Yes. Therapy over the phone or video has been proven to be just as effective as face-to-face treatment with added benefits such as:

  1. You can do sessions from the comfort of your own home.
  2. You Save money and time from not having to travel (or worry about parking)
  3. It's more accessible for people with disabilities or those that have trouble or dont feel like leaving their homes

Our first meeting is an initial assessment where we discuss your history, current concerns, and goals for therapy. Don't worry, you don't need to prepare or do anything special. You just need to show up, and I'll do the rest. It is also an opportunity for us to see if we are a good fit and for you to ask any questions about how I work.

Many extended health benefit plans cover services provided by Registered Psychotherapists (Qualifying). I recommend contacting your insurance provider to confirm your specific coverage details and any annual limits.

Now for the magic answer that everyone hates.....It depends. The duration of therapy varies depending on your unique needs and the complexity of the goals you wish to achieve. Most clients find some relief after a few sessions, with most seeing results in a few months of focused work. Others prefer ongoing support for deeper personal growth.

I have a 48-hour cancellation policy. Each appointment is booked specifically for you. The full fee is charged for no-shows/cancellations with less than 24 hours' notice, and 50% of the fee is charged for cancellations between 24-48 hours notice.
