Learn More About Me
Psychotherapist and Organizational Development Professional
Hello,
With over 15 years of experience in coaching and psychotherapy, I specialize in working with both individuals and couples. My approach is empathetic, non-judgmental, and tailored to the unique needs of each client. I have extensive experience in addressing a wide range of issues, including relationship challenges, men’s mental health, life transitions, communication difficulties, self-esteem concerns, identity development, overcoming shame, mood regulation, and LGBTQ+ issues.
​
My therapeutic approach is eclectic, recognizing that there is no "one-size-fits-all" solution. I work within your personal framework to identify the methods and strategies that resonate most with you. I am committed to working at your pace, adapting my approach to meet your specific needs, and ensuring that you feel supported throughout the process.
​
I have a particular specialization in relationship dynamics, communication enhancement, and identity exploration. I work with a diverse client base, including individuals from various faiths, cultural backgrounds, and members of the LGBTQ+ community. As a Kink-Aware and Poly-Affirmative therapist, I respect the diversity of relationships and the individuality of each client, ensuring that all are treated with dignity and understanding.
​
In addition to my therapeutic expertise, I bring over 16 years of experience in individual and group coaching, as well as a strong background in Adult Education. This background informs my work and enhances my ability to provide psychoeducation and tools that support clients in achieving their goals.
​
As a therapist, my ultimate purpose is to foster understanding, offer psychoeducation, and empower clients to succeed in their personal and relational goals.

Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
My name is Scott Howcroft, and I specialize in supporting individuals with a range of challenges, including anxiety, depression, self-esteem, life transitions, relationships, and men's issues. I work with a diverse clientele, including members of the LGBTQ+ community, as well as individuals from various cultural backgrounds and perspectives.
As a sex-positive and poly-aware therapist, I approach all relationships with respect and inclusivity. I employ a client-centered, non-judgmental approach in my practice, ensuring that each individual feels valued and understood. Whether you are experiencing difficulties in your career or personal life, dealing with grief, or navigating feelings of depression or anxiety, I am here to assist you. I am committed to supporting my clients through their unique challenges.
​
I offer online therapy sessions and utilize an eclectic approach that integrates Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Humanistic Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Person-Centered Therapy. My therapeutic style is adaptable, designed to meet the needs and pace of each individual. While I am solution-oriented, I also prioritize empathy, ensuring that the process aligns with your perspective and goals.
​
My primary focus in sessions is to ensure that my clients feel heard, validated, and supported. I approach each case with the understanding that every individual is unique, and I strive to create a space free from judgment where clients feel empowered to work through their difficulties. A key component of my practice is promoting balance in my clients' lives—however they define that balance—allowing them to move forward with confidence and clarity.
