Background

A Unique Perspective. A distinctive Therapist.

I bring a unique outlook to my clients. Having spent the first 25 years of my career as a Bay Street banker with Canada’s largest international bank, I have observed transformations of the human spirit while witnessing many changing dynamics… characteristics that can often result in creating exhausting challenges.

I am a Registered Psychotherapist with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO).

I am a graduate of Toronto’s renowned Centre for Training in Psychotherapy (CTP), having successfully completed their 7 year academic and clinical requirements. I have been practicing now for the last 25 years.

I have completed both the Externship & Core Skills Advanced Training Programs for Couples Therapy from the International Centre for Excellence in Emotionally Focused Therapy.

I am a member of the Canadian Association for Psychodynamic Therapy (CAPT). I have also served on the Board of the Psychotherapy Referral Service (PRS) as its Secretary, Treasurer and President.

As a psychotherapist with a personal experience with prostate cancer, I have a unique perspective and hopefully a helpful one, on both the practical and emotional issues men must grapple with as they face this potentially life-changing diagnosis and treatment.

My interests are varied, including photography (examples from my global exploits are featured throughout this site), music, poetry, travel and the use of improvisation in unblocking creativity. I also get pleasure enjoying “the funnier side of life” in relaxing moments with my many friends and family.
