Provide Links to other sites that I have found to be useful or interesting - and fun, too. Please note, when I add a link to my pages I have taken the time to check out the content and quality of the pages. HOWEVER, I do not spend my time continually policing these sites. I give you this information in the hope that you might find something of interest. I expect every reader to approach new information with the attitude, "What is here that speaks to me?" I don't intend that referenced sites are to be regarded as necessary reading, nor do I have to agree with all of their content.
I am making suggestions here, not giving advice! If you are looking for specific information or for an on-going conversation or exchange if they are applicable please visit; The RainbowZone HIV Forum , or The RainbowZone Breast Cancer Forum.

Let me start by telling you something about myself.
My name is Claire and I live in Toronto, Canada. As I said, I am a Psychotherapist and I have been in Private practise here for almost a decade.
I received my training, in Adlerian Psychology, from the Adler School of Professional Psychology, Chicago Adler School of Professional Psychology, Chicago (most Canadians go to a public university for graduate training in psychology, so a Professional School is usually a new idea for us). After finishing my Practicum, here in Toronto at the Adler School of Professional Psychology, Ontario, I received a Masters Degree in Counselling Psychology.
What I do.
Presently, in my work, I focus on such issues as; Life Skills Development; anxiety and anger management; Parenting Skills Workshops and seminars; dissociation and trauma recovery, lesbian and gay issues.
I also provide education and support for people living with chronic or life-threatening illnesses, such as cancer, HIV/AIDS, endometriosis, etc.
I work with Guided Imagery (Meditation) and Relaxation to provide focused support and direction for people with major illnesses, as well as using these trechniques as part of a coping strategy for managing anger, stress, depression, panic, anxiety, etc.
Check out my Links (listed below) for directions to these and other topic areas.
My Experience.
I have many years of practical experience working with lesbian, gay, bi- , transgendered or heterosexual individuals, bi-racial, heterosexual and same-sex couples, as well as with single-parents.
