Psychology defines an understanding of human behavior. The role of a psychologist is to assist individuals of any age, who experience mental health dysfunctions, to enhancing and promoting their individual wellbeing. Through the use of assessment tools, observations and evaluation, I will tailor a treatment plan, monitored appropriately and professionally to the individual needs. The plan will vary in models of therapies and in collaboration with other health professionals if needed. I will primarily diagnose abilities, moods and behavior often related to symptoms from traumatic injuries, depression, anxiety, risky behaviors, addictions and social / interpersonal problems.

As a psychologist the cornerstone of my work with clients involves assessment and evaluation. I begin every client interaction with a thorough assessment of the individual. I formulate my understanding of the client, including their presenting problem, and share this with the client. I invite and encourage active collaboration from the client to devise treatment goals that we can work to achieve in therapy. Therapy to me entails an active and engaged process exploration to gain insights that were otherwise inaccessible to the client.
