I’m a Registered Social Worker and Child and Youth Care Practitioner with almost 20 years experience working with diverse children, youth, individuals and families in a variety of settings including schools, community, mental health, hospitals, and residential programs. Finding a therapist or counsellor you connect with is one of the most important things in supporting mental wellness.

Pam is a Psychologist, registered with the College of Psychologists of Ontario, who has been in practice for over 30 years. Throughout her career she has developed an expertise in the area of school psychology. She is familiar with and utilizes a wide variety of assessment tools as well as observation, and direct interviews in order to gather information with the goal of gaining an extensive and accurate understanding of her clients in order to address and answer their questions and concerns. She creates realistic and effective treatment plans and interventions that assist the individual in reaching his or her potential.

I'm passionate about helping and connecting with others. My wealth of clinical and front line experience provides me with expertise and practical skills not possessed by most therapists. I view each client as an expert in their own lives, largely integrating their goals in counselling. My work is inspired by the science of neuroplasticity, thus I provide education about human behaviour and brain functioning to help clients make sense of their difficulties and see their challenges from a normalizing view. Many clients find this information to be helpful, hopeful, and empowering, as it gives us a roadmap for resolving their issues.

You may be an adult struggling with ADHD or Autism. Perhaps newly diagnosed and trying to understand your life through this lens. You may have problems with anxiety or compulsive behaviours (alcohol, substances, sex). You may have grown up in a family that didn't fully support your emotional needs or understood your neurodivergency. Your relationships may be strained. Perhaps your people believe you could use some help. I have been there and I have the training to support you towards a happier life. I work with mindfulness, with harm reduction or secular abstinence-based addiction recovery models, and with psychedelic medicines.

Psychotherapy is my second career, and that makes me stronger as a therapist. That's because, in addition to my academic qualifications and clinical training, my own lived experiences as a daughter, a wife and mother, a student, an employee and an entrepreneur help me relate to my clients in so many meaningful ways. Clients relate to my sense of humour, empathy, and desire for growth as a person and as a therapist. And they value my ability to get to the root of the issue and expertise in both practical problem-solving and supporting clients' growth.

Are you someone who is yearning to become their best selves in a safe, judgement-free environment. Sometimes it is important to feel heard and understood. I provide safety by creating a warm and emotionally engaged relationship where you are valued and respected. When dealing with overwhelming emotions, I want you to feel seen, heard and understood. I want to work with you to discover how past experiences have shaped who you are now. If you want help in leading you to self-discovery, I believe we all have the potential to make something constructive and meaningful with our life.

The client who's most suited to working with myself is someone who's interested in making changes in their lives and will bring their honest selves into therapy. It's someone who's struggling with challenges surrounding managing ADHD , anger, emotional regulation and addictive behaviours such as video game use. It's someone who wants to be in therapy with an individual who has gone through similar struggles and knows how to best empathize with, and assist them in working through their issues. The demographics i find i'm most effective with are biological males aged 10-60.
