Shane works with adults who are capable and high-functioning, but internally feel overwhelmed, burnt out, anxious, disconnected, or stuck in repeating patterns—especially in relationships. Many of his clients are professionals and leaders who carry a lot, yet struggle with stress, ADHD-related overwhelm, emotional reactivity, or communication breakdowns.
His style is warm, direct, and deeply relational. Shane is known for speaking the unspoken—helping clients name what they’ve been feeling but can’t quite explain. Together, therapy becomes a space to uncover the emotional and nervous-system roots beneath your patterns and create sustainable change you can actually live.
With a background in integrative wellness, neurofeedback, and stress and burnout work (including years with Cetana Neurotherapy), Shane blends evidence-based therapy with somatic awareness, emotional depth, and practical action. Therapy with Shane is not about fixing you—it’s about helping you come home to yourself, build self-trust, and show up with more clarity, integrity, and strength in your life and relationships.
Shane has been with Cetana Neurotherapy since it’s founding. He serviced clients as Program Therapist for the Stress and Burnout Program and as a LENS Neurofeedback Technician for multiple years. He has also worked with northern youth in high schools teaching teens how to regulate their nervous-systems, build social-emotional skills, and understand their strengths.
Grounded in humanistic values, Shane views clients as experts of their own experience. His approach is informed by Gabor Maté’s Compassionate Inquiry, and Steven Levine’s Somatic Experiencing. He quickly builds therapeutic relationships due to his empathy, collaboration and unconditional positive regard. Coupled with evidence-based therapies like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Psychodynamic Therapy, Shane helps clients move toward healing and meaningful growth.
Shane offers online sessions to allow you to access deep, focused therapy from the comfort of your own space. Many clients find they can open up more quickly, engage more fully and practice real-life change while staying grounded in their own environment.

Although originally from Nova Scotia and of settler descent, I am grateful beyond measure to currently be living in Chief Drygeese Territory (Yellowknife). Prior to moving to Yellowknife in 2024, I spent several years living in the Yukon on the traditional territory of White River First Nation. I moved to the Yukon from Nunavut, living in both Kinngait and Iqaluit. I have been immensely privileged to have spent the majority of the last decade in the north and getting to visit and be part of such vibrant communities.
Outside of work, you can often find me outside with my dog Breton, singing along to 2000s hip hop, watching true crime documentaries, or reality TV and forever trying to perfect my sourdough skills.
Genuine, warm and collaborative relationships are the foundation of my clinical practice. I believe in the importance of connection, and in accepting people as they are, wherever they are. I believe building trust takes time, and that there is no “one size fits all” solution. My own therapy has hugely influenced my approach to counselling, having experienced how important it is to be met with true warmth and non-judgement while engaging in efforts towards healing. I strive to work from a trauma-informed and anti-oppressive lens.
Currently, the majority of my clinical work is trauma-related, focusing on complex trauma, abuse and attachment trauma. However, I also work with individual’s experiencing depression, anxiety, life transitions, relationship difficulties and a range of other presentations.
Please note, I am not currently accepting new clients. If you would like to join my waitlist, ple...
