Your privacy matters to us

Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 4, 2026.

Your privacy matters to me. This policy explains what information this website collects, how it's used, and how your personal health information is protected if you become a client. I handle personal information in accordance with applicable Canadian privacy law, including Ontario's Personal Health Information Protection Act (PHIPA).

This website

This site is hosted by Wix. Like most websites, it uses cookies, which are small files stored in your browser. Some are essential for the site to work properly. Others are analytics cookies that show me how visitors use the site, such as which pages are viewed and how long people stay. This information is collected in aggregate and is not used to identify you.

You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings at any time. The site will still work, though some features may behave differently.

I don't sell, rent or share your information with advertisers.

Blog comments

If you comment on a blog post, you'll be asked to sign in or provide a name. Your name and comment will be visible publicly. Please don't share personal health information in comments. If you'd like to discuss something personal, contact me directly instead.

Contacting me and booking

If you email or call me, I'll receive your contact details and anything you choose to share. I use this only to respond to you.

Consultations, sessions and bookings are managed through Practice Better, a secure practice-management platform. When you book, the information you provide is stored by Practice Better and is subject to its privacy practices as well as mine.

If you become a client

Personal health information shared in therapy is kept confidential and handled in accordance with PHIPA and the standards of the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario. Sessions take place on Practice Better's secure video platform. I'll explain confidentiality, including its legal limits, in detail before we begin working together.
