About

Dr. Katrina Kwan is trained in neuropsychology and rehabilitation psychology and has spent the past decade working with health and disability issues. She considers herself to be an integrative therapist, pulling from different methodologies and theories to tailor treatment to each individual with whom she works. She enjoys working interpersonally and collaboratively, taking into account factors such as the therapeutic relationship, as well as individual history, subjective experiences, and family/cultural dynamics.

Dr. Kwan believes in the importance of seeking balance and optimal functioning in the areas of work, intimacy, friendship, and sense of self. She views therapy as a collaborative process to identify significant obstacles and patterns, discover the underlying causes of your difficulties, and develop new, healthier ways of responding to situations.
