ABOUT
Dr. Pamela Paris
- I am a clinical psychologist in practice for over 30 years and am registered with the College of Psychologists of Ontario. I am also affiliated with the Ontario Psychological Association and Canadian Register of Health Service Providers. While I have worked with clients across the lifespan, I am now focusing on adults (18+) who are experiencing a range of life challenges. I use an integrative approach that blends psychodynamic models, family systems, cognitive-behavioural psychology (CBT), dialectical behavioural psychology (DBT) and emotionally-focused therapy (EFT).
- My therapeutic goal is to both alleviate symptoms associated with a range of mental-health challenges as well as exploring the origins or deeper roots of maladaptive styles of functioning. I want my clients to become emotionally more resilient, to set better boundaries, and to feel more empowered through rewriting their own narratives. In addition, I want to help them develop a set of tools to assist in the reduction of anxiety, depression, and any other family, workplace, or relationship stressors.
