My name is Jason (he/him) and I am a first-generation immigrant who made the move to this country at a very young age. I have personally experienced the challenges of being “different” and struggling to find my fit and sense of belonging from a very young age. These experiences shape a huge part of my therapeutic space in creating a sense of safety for all my clients. I am a social worker at heart and a passionate mental health therapist by profession. My approach is heavily rooted in an Empowerment and Strengths based framework with an always conscious Anti-oppressive and Critical Race lens.

I have over a decades' worth of experience working with children, young people and families in various environments, including community-based settings, child and youth mental health clinics and BC Children’s Hospital. I have supported those challenged with anxiety, stress, mood, crisis, relational difficulties, identity formation, grief, loss, substance use and exposure to a variety of other mental health diagnoses. In my workspaces I have always been sensitive to being trauma informed in my encounters and take a client-driven approach.
