I am a Toronto-based registered clinical psychologist. In my private practice I offer assessments, individual, psychological services. I am committed to working with clients in a respectful, supportive, caring environment, through collaborative therapeutic processes that address symptoms, develop core strengths and abilities, and deliver transformative life strategies. My goal is to help people on their journey to a deeper wellness, and to assist them in creating meaningful, positive change… to stop merely existing, and start living!
