About
At Restore Balance, I am presently dedicated to assessment and supervision services, in addition to maintaining a small caseload. I am particularly passionate about “helping those who help others” including healthcare providers, first responders, and individuals in leadership positions. I assess and treat a number of conditions that interfere with work/life balance issues. My assessment portfolio includes: personal injury, motor-vehicle accidents (MVA), workplace injuries (WSIB), return-to-work, substance-use, and psycho-educational (giftedness, learning disabilities, ADHD, etc.) to remediate any difficulties through a practical application of supports, allowing individuals to reach their full potential in all aspects of life.
My past experience includes providing clinical consultation/supervision and independent assessment services (fitness for work and MVA) to other organizations. I also was an adjunct professor at Trent University in the Faculty of Social Work and the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College. I hold active registrations in good standing with the Ontario College of Psychologists and the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers.
My colleagues and clients describe me as a direct and pragmatic clinician with a “no guff attitude”. My approach is straight to the point, “no beating around the bush” or “sugar-coating” the situation. My motto is – “person first, therapist second” because I understand how difficult it can be to reach out for help. I believe in active collaboration in the assessment/treatment process and actively seek feedback from my clients.
