Experiences such as
divorce
, a layoff, the death of a loved one, emigration or the children moving house, bring with them changes that are difficult to assimilate and face. These situations mark people's lives, making them feel misunderstood, frustrated, sad or depressed, even making them question the meaning of life. But despite this, they want to find answers to accept reality and move on. I have had some of these experiences and now I am dedicated to supporting people to overcome them. I offer you to schedule your first appointment only for 90$ only in Spanish. Send me an email or send me a text.

After a separation and
divorce
it brings out the best and worst in people.
I have been practicing as a Clinical and Forensic Psychologist in B.C. for 40 years. I was previously the Senior Psychologist at the Vancouver Health Dept. and the Director of Psychology at VGH (Shaughnessy). I was a consultant to the Family Justice Counselling Service (BC Attorney General) for 10 years and the National Parole Board of Canada. My clients these days see me primarily for parenting and post-separation problems. This can take the form of parenting assessments for the Court, consulting, and Parent Coordination. I am registered to practice in BC and Alberta. Equally importantly I am a husband, father and grandfather.

Divorce
is a challenging time for all family members. For children it can be especially difficult. My philosophical approach when addressing the challenges children face as well as their parents is Two Hearts One Home. If the
divorce
is high conflict overcoming challenges often require a team approach. The Family Co- Parenting Centre is an association of Independent professionals serving Vancouver, Richmond, Delta and Surrey.

Going through separation and
divorce
is a rough process. The yelling, the tears or the fights that happen in the house is keeping you up at night and/or make you worry about your future. It is already difficult to discuss what belongs to who at this point, not to mention there are children involved. You want your children to be ok, but not sure how. Things that your partner said or did in the past seem to be stuck in your head and make you angry or sad. You want peace, you want no conflict and a way out of this emotional disaster. Talk to me, I am here to listen.

One of the most rewarding feelings in life is to feel a sense of ease and acceptance with who you are, despite your vulnerabilities. Like many others, it might be difficult for you to lean on others, yet you face challenges in managing your own emotions. Some days leave you feeling empty, and at times worry or anger may consume you. You may feel disconnected from others or who you once were. I have been in the education system for 15 years and have extensive experience working with a variety of people struggling with difficult family dynamics, anxiety, depression, separation,
divorce
, trauma, major life transitions, and abuse.
