You tell people that everything is fine, but deep down do you believe it?
Feeling anxious, irritable, sad, or numb? Do you long for meaning and joy in your life?
Do you worry about the health of your relationship?
Are you frequently not seeing eye to eye? Do you feel stuck in familiar patterns of arguing and avoiding?
Is the negativity from your relationship affecting your health, energy, concentration and sense of self?
My goal is to help you Resonate with What Matters Most.
To RESONATE is to create, hear, or even understand a deep, full experience.
Hi There!
Thank you for visiting Resonate Wellness. I am grateful that you are here considering me as your therapist.
As a Registered Clinical Counsellor, I work with individuals experiencing social, behavioural and emotional challenges including anxiety, depression, trauma, autonomic nervous system dysregulation, grief and loss, and attachment issues. I also work with couples to help them overcome the negative patterns that keep them mired in dissatisfaction, resentment, and mistrust.
I create a warm, safe and non-judgmental environment where we can freely and safely explore your thoughts and feelings that limit your potential. I want to help create new opportunities for you to live in the world in a bolder, healthier and more harmonious way.
Choosing the right therapist is a very important decision. If you have any questions or want to get a better sense of whether working with me would be a good fit, I encourage you to set up a free 20-minute consultation (which could occur over the phone or in-person at my office).
About
My name is Jeff and I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor with a Masters Degree in Counselling Psychology. I specialize in working with adults and late adolescents from a variety of backgrounds. When I am not at my private practice in downtown Vancouver or teaching and counselling at Capilano University, I am coaching hockey and raising two amazing children with my beautiful wife of 16 years.
Individual Counselling
One of the most difficult aspects of the therapeutic process can be taking the first step. Reaching out and asking for help can feel like admitting weakness, which can cascade into feelings of unworthiness and shame. For many people these feelings will decrease the likelihood of them ever reaching out for help. It can all feel like too much.
At Resonate Wellness I honour the courage people demonstrate in choosing to seek support to overcome life’s challenges. My mission is to assist you in the process of moving from feeling overwhelmed to overjoyed.
Couples Counselling
Are you frequently not seeing eye-to-eye with your partner? Do the two of you feel stuck in familiar patterns of arguing, avoiding or both? Is the negativity from your relationship affecting your health, energy, spirit, concentration, or sense of self? Are the two of you going to make it?
Resonate Wellness specializes in helping couples become “unstuck.” Whether your relationship needs a complete overhaul or a minor tune-up, I encourage you to give me a call and we will lay the pathway for your journey towards respect, trust, intimacy, and love.
Why Counselling
“Owning our story can be hard but not nearly as difficult as spending our lives running from it. Embracing our vulnerabilities is risky but not nearly as dangerous as giving up on love and belonging and joy—the experiences that make us the most vulnerable. Only when we are brave enough to explore the darkness will we discover the infinite power of our light.” – Brene Brown
You are a whole person. Your goals, strengths, and pain are all part of you. They are all part of your truth. When you embrace your truth, with all its complexities and nuances, you can find the clarity, courage and strength that can help you in your journey towards authentic transformation.

My Mission
To RESONATE refers to that ethereal quality of being heard and understood on a deep and pure level. I simply love the work. Helping clients to make sense of their world creates the space, freedom, courage and belief that change is possible. Manifesting these new-found (or “re-remebered”) truths into life can be transformative: bringing energy, well-being and connection – to oneself and others.
Invariably, most clients initially come to counselling to achieve some or all of these goals:
1) To create or improve their authentic connection with themselves and others;
2) to move in this world with a sense of fullness, confidence and a feeling that they are truly “enough;” and
3) to strengthen their capacity to translate this authenticity into the creation of a more successful and meaningful life.
Your goal is my goal: I will work with you to achieve the kind of success you envision.
