Mary and I worked together in the Child and Adolescent Program at LHSC for 6 years. I valued and appreciated the skill and expertise that she offered to our patients and their families. Mary always had a very caring and supportive approach which made the patients and their families feel accepted and well cared for while they were in our program. The feedback was always positive when we facilitated a variety of groups together with the patients . They felt comfortable and able to express their feelings in a non judgmental forum and they always loved Mary's great sense of humour ( and so did I). Mary was highly regarded by community partners and her strong advocacy skills resulted in a positive outcome for many of her patients. She is the one I have referred people to and all have commented how pleased they are with her.

I was fortunate to work with Mary during my 16 years in Child and Adolescent Mental Health as a Child and Youth Counsellor. She became a mentor to me, professionally and personally. Mary is a cheerleader, taking her passion, encouragement and wisdom into therapeutic sessions, and clients find themselves wanting to move forward in their journeys. Mary and I worked with a number of parents who had adolescents struggling with mood and anxiety disorders, and I was always impressed by Mary's acknowledgment of the family as individuals, and as a group. Everyone felt heard and validated; recognized. Mary continues to provide that relaxed, nonjudgmental space in her private practice, where people can open up and explore their feelings and the challenges they are facing. I value Mary's strong work ethic, professionalism, and skills and would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone in need of support.

Mary and I shared many mutual clients at the LHSC Child and Adolescent Mental Health Care Program when she worked there. She is an experienced and seasoned clinician. Mary is very respected for her clinical expertise, especially in Interpersonal Psychotherapy. She can handle complex clients and families with ease and achieve great results. Mary is approachable, warm and compassionate with her patients. Clients of all ages would benefit from her care and I feel very comfortable referring clients to her practice.

I worked with Mary at LHSC for over a decade and I appreciated sharing cases with her because her treatment plans were invariably comprehensive, well-organized and individualized for each patient. She worked collaboratively with colleagues and families and communicated effectively with all members of our treatment team. I saw many of her patients successfully return to full functioning at school and life in general and I would not hesitate to recommend her to individuals and families in need.

I had the pleasure of working with Mary for nearly 2 decades at LHSC. She was a skilled mentor, a compassionate clinician and the best co-worker anyone could hope to have. Mary's clinical skills are exceptional and beyond reproach. She works hard for her clients and has such a kind, easy demeanor that clients feel immediately comfortable and reassured. I have referred a number of people to Mary because I have every confidence that they will benefit from her skilled intervention. Quite simply, she is an excellent therapist.
