APPROACH
Dr. Lo primarily grounds her work in the richness of the Psychodynamic perspective. To fully appreciate the complexity of an individual’s mind and experiences, her work is inclusively informed by other modalities, such as Humanistic, Family Systems, Emotion Focused and Cognitive-Behavioural therapeutic approaches. She believes it is the continuous integration of theoretical curiosity, empirical research, and direct collaboration with patient that gives rise to a meaningful and useful therapy process and outcome. When working with children, working with the parents and families is often an integral part of the therapeutic process.
PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE
Dr. Lo has engaged in full-time private practice since 2012. During her psychology training years and professional practice, Dr. Lo worked in a variety of settings including the hospital, school boards, and community based out-patient programs. She held part-time appointments as Psychologist at St. Catharines General Hospital, as well as at Toronto Catholic District School Board (Deaf and Hard of Hearing Team). She also served as Consultant Psychologist in a trauma program in Toronto, with a focus on children and adolescents with attachment and relationship disturbance within a systemic, strength-based perspective. In her various professional role as psychologist, she has worked on many inter-disciplinary teams (e.g., Psychiatry, Social Work, Speech-Language Pathology, Audiology, Education) and provided clinical supervision to allied mental health professionals. She also has been providing in-depth clinical training and mentorships for doctoral-level clinical psychology students and early career psychologists, as an additional way to contribute to the advancement in the field of psychology and mental health.
