I am an award-winning Clinical Psychologist, acclaimed speaker, and the CEO, founder, and clinical director of The Design Your Life Centre, a psychotherapy practice in Toronto and the founder of the online Design Your Life Community. With more than 20 years experience helping people navigate some of life’s most difficult journeys such as infertility, pregnancy loss, chronic pain, chronic illness and sudden traumatic events, my strength is my ability to recognize resilience and teach people how to apply proven psychological strategies in order to move past mere survival and thrive in the face of adversity.
My work seamlessly interweaves Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Schema Therapy, Mindfulness Practices, Mental Skills for High Performance, and Clinical Hypnosis with a keen understanding of how to break limiting life patterns and create new ones that are aligned with your authentic self & the life you want to live. I also provide group coaching programs.
My work with clients is focused and goal-oriented, but flexible and responsive to individual needs. While there are no guarantees, typically clients can expect to see meaningful change within 4-6 sessions. Clients of the Design Your Life Centre also get access to group coaching programs & tools offered through the DYL Community, my private online community.

The Design Your Life Centre
The mission of The Design Your Life Centre is to help people fulfill their life’s purpose, which we believe, is to be their authentic selves. To do this, we help people understand early life patterns that no longer serve them so that they can consciously create new ones that do. This is what it means to Design Your Life.
