ABOUT ZACK
Zack is a compassionate psychotherapist and trained EMDR therapist who supports individuals aged 12+ facing challenges related to trauma, mental health, and substance use. Zack combines evidence-based practices with a holistic approach to help clients break free from emotional barriers and achieve meaningful progress.
EMDR is used to help clients address the emotional roots of trauma, guiding them to heal from past wounds. In addiction-focused therapy, Zack targets the trauma and distress that often fuel substance use, as he recognizes the link between addiction and trauma and has the tools to treat them both simultaneously to create long-lasting change. Having served as a Team Lead for various community programs focusing on the treatment of addiction and mental health & supporting the communities’ vulnerable populations, Zack excels at connecting with individuals from diverse backgrounds and creating personalized treatment plans tailored to each person's unique needs.
He is also a published author, contributing to the research paper "Isolation to Stabilization: A Housing First Approach to Address Homelessness in Kingston, Ontario" in Canadian Journal of Public Health (2024). Read the paper here.
Zack has received specialized training in using EMDR with high-performing athletes, performers, creatives, or professionals working in demanding environments. Zack integrates EMDR with performance coaching to overcome mental blocks, performance anxiety, and self-limiting beliefs, improving focus, resilience, and performance. Zack’s personal experience as a former competitive athlete, particularly navigating sports-related injuries, has shaped his therapeutic approach. Understanding the challenges of recovery, he is dedicated to helping individuals overcome obstacles in both athletic performance and personal growth.
Outside of his work, Zack remains active in the community, enjoys spending time with his three rescue dogs, and cherishes moments with family and friends.
Whether addressing unresolved trauma, mental health challenges, substance use, or enhancing your performance, Zack can help you overcome obstacles and unlock your true potential.
