Abby is a Psychologist (Candidate Register) who completed her Master of Science in Clinical Psychology degree at Acadia University. She provides both psychotherapy and assessment services and has a broad background working with various mental health challenges. She has a particular interest in working with children and adolescents presenting with anxiety, depression, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). Abby primarily uses cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) in her practice. For assessments, she offers services for clients experiencing challenges in areas of learning, attention, and mental health.
