A neuropsychologist is a psychologist who specializes in studying brain-behaviour relationships. Neuropsychologists have training in the anatomy, physiology, and pathology of the nervous system and specialize in evaluating (and treating) people. They focus on cognition (the ability to think, remember, learn, etc.) in relation to the effects of brain injury, organic brain disease, or any condition that impacts on cognitive functions.
While our clinic is called “Practice in Neuropsychology”, we provide a full range of services in adult clinical psychology, from 16 and older. While assessing and treating adolescents and children is not currently a service we offer, we anticipate that this will be part of the services we offer as early as 2023.
“Assessments are not just tests. We strive to clarify the issue, what may be contributing, interpret carefully, and provide clear recommendations for what to do next.”
Dr. Duncan Day

Saoirse is a registered psychotherapist (qualifying) with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO) with two years of mental health clinical training and experience. She currently offers psychotherapy for a wide range of issues, including depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, and stress. Although her background is in cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT), she approaches psychotherapeutic treatment from an eclectic standpoint, meaning that the treatment structure will be tailored to your specific goals. Strategies from CBT, psychodynamic therapy, dialectical behaviour therapy, and emotion-focused therapy may be used where needed.
Her aim in psychotherapy is to provide a safe, open-minded, and non-judgmental space for you to achieve your own goals in positive change. Ultimately, she believes that treatment should not only alleviate present symptoms, but also help you lead a healthier life going forward.
She also offers psychometric testing for neuropsychological assessments. She has four years of experience administering standardized psychological test batteries and evaluating cognitive, academic, and behavioural status.
If you have any questions or would like to set up a consultation meeting, please contact her through the clinic.
