Marriage and Family Therapist and Registered Social Worker
Tom has almost 25 years of experience in counseling various client groups, couples and families, mental health issues, developmental disabilities and youth justice. He is a graduate of Loma Linda University in California with a Master of Science in Marriage and Family Therapy. He is trained in all systemic theories (structural, family of origin, experiential, brief solution focus, and attachment theory), and “non-systemic” therapeutic approaches (DBT) Dialectic Behavioral Therapy, (EMDR) Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing, (CBT) Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and (MI) Motivational Interviewing.
Tom is a Registered Social Worker in Alberta since 2001 and he practices in a client-supportive and non-oppressive manner, believing that clients have a right to make their choices, living the way that leads to their spiritual fulfillment and happiness. He is keenly aware of multiculturalism and the societal silencing of marginalized minorities, including LGBT, religious or ethnic minorities. He strives to give voice to their wishes and needs they seek. His clients are encouraged to request therapy that fits their needs in what is discussed and when, and how the process needs to be shaped.
Tom provides positive and unconditional regard towards all his clients as persons requiring respect, empathy, validation and support in their current difficulties. His role is assisting all clients in the discovery of their strengths and healthy coping strategies, problem-solving, validating their goals, analyzing pros and cons, and supporting them as they carry them out.
Tom’s special interests are: searching for personal meaning, spirituality and religious beliefs, loss and grief processing, trauma recovery and inner-child work, anxiety and depression, stress management, addictions and harm reduction, clear communication, and interpersonal boundaries.
