Currently offering remote sessions (video). Accepting new clients. I am a Clinical Supervisor. When most clients come to me they don't know where to start and they haven't been able to overcome their problems alone or with their friend's advice.

I have a Masters in Counseling Psychology from OISE UofT the University of Toronto where I learned to use research-supported methods to help clients be empowered. Clients are always the experts on themselves.
