about me
my approach
My approach to therapy is grounded in compassion, respect and inclusion. At every opportunity, I combine both dialogue and experiential components in my sessions. Above all, I strive to foster a strong therapeutic alliance with my clients to create a solid foundation from which we can begin therapy.
Having served as the Team Lead in the Intensive OCD Treatment Program at Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre for a number of years, I am well aware of the challenge in finding the right treatment for OCD. Moreover, I understand how OCD’s intersection with neurodivergence, trauma and mood disorders may impact individual clients’ needs. For that reason, I have dedicated my career to continuously learn and implement innovative, evidence-based strategies to address the whole person and not just the disorders in silos.
