Chris Gilbert Psychologist Profile Picture

I have an engaging, silly & charismatic style that kids tend to enjoy and a down-to-earth, light-hearted & matter-of-fact approach that adults & teens tend to appreciate.

For child & teen treatment, I assist with behavioural issues, emotional issues, ADHD, ASD (Autism, Level 1 & 2), anxiety, depression and ODD. I like to have a team approach: working with the child / teen (the ones who need help), the parents (the ones motivated to see change) and other professionals/school (others assisting in change - if desired and necessary)

For adult treatment, I assist with anxiety, panic attacks, phobias, depression and living with ADHD and/or Autism.
