Insomnia is a common complaint and we all know how debilitating sleep problems can make us feel. Sleep is an integral aspect of well-being; however, well-meaning strategies often worsen sleep problems, including improper implementation of sleep hygiene, over-the-counter medications, apps, relaxation, meditation, essential oils, etc. Insomnia contributes to added frustration, anxiety, and depression. Luckily, research has shown that treatment for insomnia is very effective. I specialize in treating insomnia currently through only group therapy.
My expertise is diagnosing and treating mental illness based on current research findings. Successful treatment requires careful assessment in order to plan and deliver effective interventions. I work from a holistic perspective, integrating the latest knowledge in neurobiological & psychological research to help understand and assist improve mental health.
I use personality, cognitive, and psychological testing to fine-tune diagnosis. I incorporate technology (online therapy through a secure platform), make recommendations for helpful apps and resources to complement face-to-face therapy. I work with insurance companies and WSIB to help individuals recover from work-trauma and stress and return to work.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy For Insomnia (CBT-i)
CBT-i is an 8-week virtual (online) program to assist individuals with complaints of primary insomnia. This group therapy program is structured to provide psychoeducation on the cause and maintenance factors of insomnia and recommendations. Clients learn how to: get more efficient sleep through behavioural changes (which is different from sleep hygiene) to improve fatigue, anxiety, depressive symptoms, and concentration problems to get a good night’s sleep; how negative thoughts and behaviours may worsen insomnia; become less dependent on sleep medications. One-on-one consultations are available throughout the program. This group starts on Thursday, April 8th, 2021.
