I would be most helpful to clients who may be struggling at school (K-university), have ADHD or symptoms of inattention/hyperactivity/impulsivity, deal with emotional and behavioural disturbance, suicidal thoughts, or self-harm, have social interaction difficulties, deal with low self-esteem, have chronic illnesses or pains (this only for up to 18 years old), or struggle with adjustment to a new situation, whether it is a regular stage of life (e.g., moving out of house to a university, parenthood) or tragic life changes (e.g., grief, loss of loved ones). Consultation with schools is my specialty as well.
I have worked as a psychologist/faculty member in various settings, including school board, university, and teaching hospitals (Sick Kids and McMaster), and continue to be a part-time psychologist and assistant professor at McMaster. I am involved in research ( e.g., co-developed the Teacher Help program for ADHD; www.teacherhelp.ca).
I conduct a telephone screening before seeing clients. Currently my services are video and audio based due to COVID-19. Information about my practice can be found at www.drnez.com. Located at the heart of Ancaster, happy to be serving the surrounding community since July 2019 on a full-time basis (had a small private practice since 2010).
