I am a Registered Psychotherapist in the province of Ontario, and I consider it a privilege to work with my clients to feel better amid life’s many challenges. Whether it’s through modifying habitual negative thinking, overcoming substance dependence, developing greater self-awareness or moving past unhelpful patterns in relationships, I assist my clients as they endeavour to make positive changes in their lives.

As a therapist I consider myself a trusted confidant and consultant in my clients’ worlds, listening closely and sharing my honest impressions as we make inroads toward greater mental health and overall well-being. I am passionate about my work and equally passionate about improving my clients’ lives, bringing indispensable therapeutic qualities like empathy, curiosity, compassion and, when appropriate, humour, to the therapeutic relationship.

My educational background includes a B.A. from Yale University and an M.Ed. from University of Toronto. In addition to my psychotherapy practice, I am active in mental health advocacy and serve on the board of directors of the Ontario Association of Mental Health Professionals, where I currently chair the Public Policy committee.
