Are you feeling unmotivated, stuck or alone? Maybe you’re feeling anxious and irritable in relationships. Has your stressed increased since the pandemic? Together, in therapy, we will find new ways to manage and cope with your symptoms, while working to resolve them. Seeking therapy is challenging, and I commend you on taking this first step. If you have already started your healing journey, I welcome the opportunity to collaborate.

Do you find yourself feeling overwhelmed, sad or disconnected? Are you struggling with relationships, past difficulties or trauma, or with coping with something new? With individuals and couples, I offer support when it becomes too difficult to manage alone. Take this opportunity to explore/share emotions, heal traumas, find compassion for yourself and others, as well as develop new coping strategies. For couples, I will guide you in heartfelt conversations to build and reconnect. Discover how you can experience a life and relationships based on your own strengths, choices and values.

I wear many professional hats. I am an MD, MACP, RP(q), a Clinical Researcher, a Project Management Professional, a Professor at George Brown College, previously an instructor for 15 years at UofT and a family oriented female. I am a published author in the Journal of American College of Cardiology, International Diabetes Federation and the Journal of European Society of Cardiology. I have a number of years worth of work experience in mental health. I have taken care of clients in the in/out patient settings. I believe in providing a non-judgmental and safe space for people to share. My aim is to build stronger communities.

With over twenty years of experience working in the field, I know that we are all hardwired for healing and connection, even when feeling confused and overwhelmed by life challenges. My practice style is to team up with my clients to facilitate deep self-knowledge, understanding and empowerment to create change and growth in a warm and accepting environment. I have experience working with trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, life transitions, regulating difficult emotions and self-esteem. I provide service to individuals (13 yrs.+), couples and families.

Do you sometimes think to yourself "my child's behaviour is out of control!". Do you think "I want to help my child so desperately but somehow it feels like I end up making things worse" ? Maybe you blame yourself and wonder "where did I go wrong?". Maybe other people in your child's life blame you. You know something needs to change but don't know where else to look. You've exhausted all the options you know of- you've spoken to other moms, teachers, maybe other therapists. You worry about your child's happiness and stability if something doesn't change. This is hard stuff! I want you to know, you're in the right place!

At times, many of us contend with emotions and suffering that are overwhelmingly painful, disheartening and difficult to bear, often as a result of unique stressors and events. I work with adults, adolescents, families and step-families using Emotionally Focused Therapy, EMDR, interpersonal psychotherapy, and DBT/CBT within neuroscience and attachment frameworks. I encouraged clients to access inner strengths and free their capacity for growth. Whether you or a family member experience depression, anxiety, marital distress or difficulties with peers, you deserve support in a confidential, accepting, safe and caring environment.

Do you you wish you were more easy going and confident? Would it be nice to be able to stand up for yourself more readily, or not second-guess yourself all time. Do you sometimes feel like you do not belong or that there is something wrong with you. Stressful experiences leave a deep imprint on our minds, bodies and even relationships. The effects of these can only be reversed in the context of a trusting relationship. Using attachment science, we’ll uncover patterns affecting your life, work through difficult emotions, and come to new understandings.

I’m a fortunate man, really enjoying my life and my work. I am well, and I remember not being well; anxious, depressed, traumatized and clinically diagnosed with various psychiatric ailments. Life threw me some awful curves and I’ve experienced the therapy world as a client for many hundreds of hours in several of its forms. I have acted badly and I apologize to those I’ve hurt. I won’t indulge my humility here but I’ll be open if you ask. My practice is built in part on my personal experiences of suffering, change, and growth. I am a Registered Psychotherapist in the Province of Ontario.
