Practice information:

Nick is a Registered Clinical Counsellor and the founder of Path Forward Counselling where the focus is on creating an environment where you feel safe.  We begin establishing a therapeutic relationship which the research has identified as a key, core factor in growth and change.  With that relationship and safety in place then it becomes easier for you to share what is bothering you. Together we collaboratively create an approach to acknowledge and walk away from your pain.  I believe in creating an artfully blended approach which is uniquely tailored to your individual needs.  There is no one size fits all approach to counselling therapy.  When we co-create a treatment plan this represents my effort to respect your knowledge, your journey, and the strength required for you to get this far.     

My work focuses on those who find themselves lost along their journey.  Life can become stressful very quickly.  You may feel like you've lost control, that you are stuck in repeating undesired patterns or you just haven't felt like yourself recently.  These ups and downs make us human.  It's in those down moments that things can begin feeling really dark.  You may not be able to see the path forward, bringing up various emotions.  Path Forward Counselling was created to help in these moments of distress.  A masters level counsellor at Path Forward Counselling can see the path and guide you along, even when it is hidden from you. We begin exploring these new paths by using trauma informed practices guided by polyvagal theory and the principles of neuroscience. 

Talking the first step and asking for help can be the most difficult step.  You have come so far in your life and I want to respect that.  We all experience moments in our lives where we need a companion to help us continue along our journey.  The courage to reach out represents your strength. I believe that the you know what feels best and that is why your first session is free.  Come try it out and see if Path Forward Counselling meets your needs.
