I was trained in IPT at the Centre of Addictions and Mental Health (CAMH) in Toronto, at the Department of Psychiatry University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine and in Group IPT at McMaster University Department of Psychiatry School of Medicine. I trained and supervised Psychology Interns, Psychiatry Residents and Social Work Students in Interpersonal Psychotherapy. IPT is a method of treating depression and is a form of psychotherapy that focuses on you and your relationships with other people. It's based on the idea that personal relationships are at the center of psychological problems.
Depression often follows changes in one’s interpersonal environment (e.g., struggle with a significant other, loss of a loved one,life transitions such as divorce, job loss, postpartum or inability to maintain or develop social connections). Once depressed, symptoms can lead to compromised interpersonal functioning, which can precipitate continued stressful events. The goal in therapy is to address both the stressful life events and improved social support.
IPT focuses on improving problematic interpersonal relationships or circumstances that are directly related to the current depressive episode.
In therapy, you will be provided with skills and strategies to manage depression symptoms. Self-care, self-love and acceptance, and mindfullness-based practice are provided through educational and therapeutic modalities such as goal setting, dialectical behaviour therapy and cognitive-behavioural therapy.
Depression can have many causes, much of it situational and due to unhelpful thinking patterns. I use behavioural activation and cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) techniques to help you improve your day to day functioning and find more joy and fulfillment in life.

Depression is a common but debilitating condition that affects thoughts, feelings, and daily functions, leaving individuals feeling drained of energy and hope. It can cause sleep problems, appetite changes, and increase the risk of suicide. Regardless of whether the cause of depression is known or unknown, like loss or ongoing disappointment, it's important not to face it alone. I provide various treatment options such as CBT, ACT, or EMDR to help individuals deal with their depression.
