I am a highly accomplished clinical psychologist in private practice. I am the mental health consultant to the Global Medical Team at Reinsurance Group of America and an advisor to start ups in the mental health space. I have worked as an academic researcher, clinician, and leader in a variety of inpatient and outpatient settings. The focus of my research has been on using technology to scale evidence-based assessment and treatment. I was a founder of Mindbeacon, which was successfully taken to an IPO on the TSX. I enjoy working with high functioning professionals, executives, entrepreneurs, performers, and athletes.
I bring my experience as a successful academic researcher, clinician, leader and entrepreneur to my work with my patients. I have always enjoyed clinical work and I have always maintained a small private practice. I am an expert in CBT and the treatment of mood disorders, anxiety disorders and stress related problems, including post traumatic stress.
I like helping people solve complex problems. Sometimes the problem is "simple" and the solution is "easy" but often not. The high bar goal for psychotherapy is transformational change and that is what I try to aim for. I maintain a small practice so that my patients have my full attention. I charge $250 per 50-minute session and I try to make it worthwhile.

My expertise is in the treatment of mood disorders, anxiety disorders and stress-related problems including PTSD. That often involves talking about relationship issues and disputes, life transitions, and/or loss. The high bar goal for psychotherapy is transformational change.and that is what we should aim for.
