With over 30 years as a well-regarded psychologist, psychoanalyst, and educator at Canada’s leading institutions, I help adults navigate trauma, mood and anxiety disorders, personality challenges, relationship struggles, and stress. I combine expertise with compassion, guiding people to insight, resilience, and lasting change through psychotherapy tailored to your unique personality and needs.
I am passionate about teaching and mentoring the next generation of clinicians. I have balanced a full-time clinical practice with academic roles at the University of Toronto and Dalhousie University, as well as psychoanalytic training institutes and teaching hospitals. Decades of teaching and supervision continue to enrich my clinical work.
Every person makes sense once their story is understood. I provide individualized psychotherapy with depth, curiosity, and respect, working collaboratively to foster lasting insight, resilience, and meaningful change. I warmly invite you to reach out.
