Dr. Ivy Brooker C. Psych

Description

My approach for providing psychological services is empathic, genuine, and honest. I believe in tailoring my treatment approach to individual client need. The issues I deal with are anxiety, depression, interpersonal and relationship difficulties, stress management, trauma, grief, and life transitions. I draw upon many evidenced-based approaches including cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), mindfulness, dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT), and interpersonal psychotherapy (IPT). I provide individual psychotherapy to adults and adolescents.
I completed my Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology at Concordia University and have since received clinical training in outpatient services, university student counselling centres, and specialized clinic settings. I currently also work at University of Toronto's Health and Wellness Centre and Cognitive and Interpersonal Therapy Centre (CITC). Others have often commented on my ability to establish strong working relationships with clients, which are the cornerstone for promoting change. I believe that therapy with the right therapist is being able to recognize and face problems and challenges within a warm, supportive atmosphere. Take the first step to help.
