Not just a therapist — Darrin is a former athlete.
Having competed as team captain at university football, including provincial and national championships across 5 different sports, he has the insights of "the competitive mind."
Darrin brings real-world experience and an intuitive high-performance approach to every client's therapeutic programming.
Beyond physical performance, popular concepts of "mindfulness", "visualization", and "imagery" were innate within Darrin's earliest athletic pursuits, having been fortunate to hone a skill-set that was mentored by sport psychologists, Olympic coaches, and professional athletes starting as a young teen in high-school.
Attendance at YMCA Sports Camps every summer from the age of 6 led to working at the camp as a senior boys counsellor until the completion of high school. After studying kinesiology at Wilfrid Laurier University, studies in sports psychology led to a recruitment to program and facilitate the University of Ottawa's High-Performance & Cooperation Camp, whereafter, 3 faculty staff and professors requested Darrin to mentor their own teens.
It was natural that the integration of academics, athletics and community work informed Darrin's approach in the development of "body, mind & spirit" over a lifetime of pursuits. Darrin proudly shares this knowledge, applying evidence-based strategies and science-based concepts in a practical way within the traumatic brain injury field.
No matter your focus around rehabilitation, training, or wellness, it's good to work with someone who will walk side-by-side with you -- and with someone who "gets it."
"We become inspired when we do our best, and this happens as we come together to share success."
Clients find great confidence knowing they have worked to develop a repertoire of sheathed abilities that can be accessed and utilized within a variety of scenarios and social environments.
"The meek shall inherit the earth."
Expanding specific capacities of a client is key to the pursuit of discovering, developing, and hardening competencies.
Building a repitoire of abilites is what allows for confidence to grow.
Often, this requires clients to pursue their goals in ways that are new to them:
Clients so often find themselves discovering their "competitive spirit."
And, what may seem at odds, is to similarly embrace their "cooperative spirit."
Let’s build your plan to achieve the rehab, academic, or lifestyle goals you've always desired.
