A Collaborative Journey Towards Well-Being

A Collaborative Journey Towards Well-Being

Psychotherapy is a partnership between you and a therapist, grounded in open, supportive dialogue. In a safe, nonjudgmental space, you can explore your thoughts and feelings with someone objective and neutral. Together, you and your therapist will work to identify and transform the thought patterns and behaviors that are holding you back from feeling your best. By the end of therapy, not only will you have addressed the issues that brought you in, but you’ll also have gained new skills to manage future challenges.

People seek psychotherapy for a variety of reasons. Some may struggle with long-standing feelings of depression, anxiety, or anger. Others may need support navigating a chronic illness affecting their emotional or physical well-being. Short-term issues like navigating a divorce, adjusting to a new job, or coping with grief are also common reasons to seek help.

What I Do

My Approach to Psychology

I take an integrative approach to psychotherapy, drawing from multiple psychological traditions, including psychoanalytic, humanistic, and cognitive-behavioral methods. I incorporate mindfulness techniques, progressive relaxation, narrative therapy, two-chair techniques, role-playing, guided visualizations, and behavioral exercises. When working with families and couples, I apply a systemic approach (informed by Gottman and Adler).

My Biography

With over 25 years of experience, I have been supporting individuals, couples, and families through various challenges, bringing a wealth of knowledge and expertise to every therapeutic encounter.

I hold both a B.A. and B.Sc. from the University of Toronto, along with a Master’s Degree in Clinical Psychology from Adler University in Chicago. I am a member of the North American Society for Adlerian Psychology, the Canadian Association for Psychodynamic Therapy (CAPT), and the Ontario Association of Mental Health Professionals. I am also registered with the College of Psychotherapists of Ontario.

Throughout my career, I’ve gained valuable experience in diverse roles at institutions such as York University, The Scarborough Hospital, Our Place (Peel), St. Leonard’s, and Youthdale Treatment Centres. Since 2004, I have maintained a private practice, where I work closely with a Clinical Psychologist and supervise psychotherapy trainees.

For over 20 years, I’ve facilitated weekly anger management sessions in Scarborough and East York, helping clients navigate and manage their emotions in healthier ways.
