With over 20 years of expertise, I offer assessment and treatment services to enhance cognitive and mental health in adults 18 and up.
MEDICAL-LEGAL ASSESSMENT Comprehensive neuropsychological and psychological assessment following accident and injury.
Neuropsychological assessment evaluates an individual’s level of cognitive (mental) functioning in areas such as intelligence, attention and concentration, memory, language, visuospatial ability, reasoning, and executive functions. Psychological functioning is also assessed as a part of the process.
Neuropsychological assessment can help identify the cause or causes of cognitive difficulties. It can also provide a profile of a client’s cognitive strengths and weaknesses, a baseline against which changes in a client’s cognitive abilities may be measured, and can help explain the relationship between a client’s cognitive difficulties and their everyday functioning.
Psychological assessment focuses on emotional, personality, and social functioning. It can diagnose psychological disorders, and help explain an individual’s behavioural or functional difficulties in daily life. Recommendations for treatment are provided based on the findings.
PSYCHOLOGICAL THERAPY Online therapy for individuals with anxiety, depression, stress, chronic pain, and post-concussion symptom management.
Fees for psychological services are often reimbursed by extended health-care benefits. Please check with your insurance provider to determine the extent of your coverage.
I serve adults (ages 18 and up) in Waterloo, the Greater Toronto Area, and surrounding regions, and also provide online services throughout Ontario.
