....My private therapy practice began in downtown Toronto in 2001. My work with patients in which I use a psychoanalytic approach is focused on a wide variety of issues: relationship difficulties, depression, anxiety and panic, self esteem, chronic pain, sexual identity and sexual orientation, obsessions. A joint decision by patient and therapist is made at the beginning of therapy as regards the issues to be worked on, the frequency of sessions, and the fee (I use a sliding scale). I do psychotherapy in English and French. ....From 1999 to 2008, I worked as a psychotherapist at the student psychotherapy clinic at the University of Western Ontario where I generally saw students once a week during the September-May academic year. My objective was to help students understand the source of their problems and develop coping skills as they dealt with the stresses in their personal and academic lives. |
