About
I received my Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from York University. My predoctoral residency was at the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH) in the Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy for Psychosis Service and the Borderline Personality Disorders Clinic. For the next five years, I remained at CAMH as a postdoctoral fellow and staff psychologist. My dissertation research focused on how clients and therapists fit together and work productively through a concept called the working alliance.
I offer individual psychotherapy for adults experiencing difficulties with anxiety/stress, mood, substance misuse, psychosis, interpersonal issues, and problems in adjusting to new life circumstances. My clinical practice is rooted in evidence-based cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT), with which he integrates other therapeutic modalities, including emotion-focused therapy (EFT) and dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT).
When I’m not working, I love spending time with my wife and daughter, reading, playing sports and games, and exploring the outdoors.
