I am a clinical psychologist who works with children, youth, and families. I collaborate with parents and caregivers to empower them to help their families cope with and positively adapt to life’s challenges. I use a strengths-based approach, drawing on emotion-focused, behavioural, and family systems models to give parents the emotional and practical tools they need to support their loved ones. I am an Assistant Professor at York University specializing in child and family psychology, where I study child development and mental health with a focus on family well-being.
