I offer a secure, therapeutic relationship in which you can explore and make sense of your experience. For adults struggling with depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties or other conflict in your life, I will help you understand the origins of your difficulties and let go of issues from your past so that you can feel good about yourself now and improve your relationships with others. I also specialize in attachment-based therapy for children birth to six who are adopted, have behaviour problems, social anxiety or other special needs. I support both parent and child to achieve a strong healthy relationship.
I specialize in psychotherapy from at Attachment perspective. I understand adult relationships and parent-child relationships using attachment theory, relational psychotherapy, adult learning and child development theory. I have over 25 years of teaching and clinical practice in parent-child relationships as an adult educator, parenting consultant and psychotherapist.
I have authored several curriculum guides on early parent-child relationships for use in the community by public health and family support professionals who support parent-child relationships. "Make the Connection" for infants (2003) and toddlers (2006) are used extensively by Toronto Public Health and in many parts of Canada.
