About
In order to more fully focus on teaching, training therapists, and consultation, I am not accepting new clients for psychological services as of January 2026.
My main areas of work are where problems with mental health and addiction overlap. I have a longstanding interest in co-occurring disorders.
My work integrates the science and philosophy of behaviour change. I like to bring compassion, humour, authenticity, and warmth to my consultation and teaching.
