I am a Registered Psychotherapist practising in Downtown Toronto, with offices in the Junction, the Annex, and Little Italy. My practice centres on anxiety, panic, and OCD, as well as difficulties with self-worth. Where symptoms are acute or impairing, I provide structured, evidence-based intervention, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and ERP. For many clients, however, symptom reduction is only one aim of treatment. They also seek to understand why they feel and respond as they do. This is the focus of psychodynamic psychotherapy, my primary orientation, an approach concerned with the deeper roots of symptoms.

We refer to these roots as deeper because they are often unconscious. Much of what shapes our experiences, relationships, choices, and behaviours operates outside awareness and develops early. These influences can become patterns of feeling and relating that continue to shape how we live, sometimes creating difficulties we do not fully understand.

In our work, we will use language to articulate the emotions, narratives, and beliefs that make up patterns that may be contributing to your distress. By understanding what these patterns are and how they developed, we can begin to revise them by experimenting with new ways of living according to what’s important to you.

Most of my clients come in with anxiety, struggles with self-worth, or the effects of trauma. Often what brings someone in is a recurring pattern they can't quite explain. Psychodynamic work helps make sense of it. I also have specialized training in OCD and related anxiety disorders, and draw on CBT and ERP when symptoms need direct, structured intervention.

My primary modality is psychodynamic psychotherapy. In early sessions we map what brought you in and the history around it. From there, we track the recurring emotional and relational patterns shaping your present difficulties, and understanding these is what makes change possible. When symptoms call for direct, structured intervention, I use CBT and ERP, often as a focused course within the work.
