ABOUT ME

I am a clinical psychologist registered with the College of Psychologists and Behaviour Analysts of Ontario. I work extensively with individuals struggling with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). I have completed training through the Behaviour Training Therapy Institute (BTTI) at the International OCD Foundation, and a significant portion of my practice includes the assessment and treatment of OCD presentations including: harm, sexual obsessions, symmetry concerns, contamination, relationship OCD, and much more. 

​

I am also a graduate of the TLC's Virtual Professional Training Institute and have a special interest in the treatment of body-focused repetitive behaviours (BFRBs) such as skin picking, hair pulling, nail biting, and more. 

​

The remaining portion of my practice has an emphasis on anxiety disorders  (panic disorder, agoraphobia, generalized anxiety disorder, social anxiety disorder, and phobias), depression, anger, and relationship problems.

​

I practice primarily from a cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) framework. CBT is an evidence-based psychotherapy widely considered to be the gold standard for treating many mental health issues.

​

CBT seeks to encourage clients to make small changes in how they think and behave to promote lasting and effective change. As a clinician, I seek to empower clients to manage current and future difficulties with autonomy.
