Description
I am a relationship therapist specializing in individual, couples and sex therapy and clinical supervision. I maintain a clinical practice in Ottawa West (Kanata) and virtually for clients across Ontario. I hold a Bachelor degree in Psychology from the University of Ottawa, and a Master of Science degree in Couple and Family Therapy from the University of Guelph. I have also had additional training to be able to specialize in Sex Therapy. I strongly believe in continuing education and regularly seek out additional training through conferences and workshops.
