Profile:

Valda Lopo,M.A., C.Psych Registered Psychologist I am a registered psychologist and a member in good standing with the College of Psychologists of Ontario. My areas of competency are in clinical, school , and counseling psychology with children , adolescents and adults. Over my 20 year career, I have held positions in women’s shelters, community mental health agencies, school board, private psychology clinics , and university-affiliated teaching hospital. I have worked in a outpatient psychiatric settings providing assessment and treatment services (i.e., psychotherapy) for adults and children with primary mental health problems (e.g., depression, anxiety, psychosis, eating disorders, pervasive development delays, and behavior problems etc.), as well as in private clinical settings with adults who have psychological problems or concerns associated with a medical illness such as pain disorders, trauma, and work related injuries. This breadth of experience has led to the development of a high level of competence and expertise in working effectively with people who are struggling with a range of psychological issues and conditions of varying complexities. While I have always maintained a general practice, I am additionally recognized for my expertise in working with adults and children survivors of psychological trauma ( car accidents, work related traumas, and sexual abuse). I am also recognized by the work with immigrants and issues related to acculturation. Through my appointments in clinical and school psychology, I have maintained a strong commitment to excellence, and I restrict my practice to providing those models of psychotherapy that are most effective for providing sustained alleviation of symptoms and/or fostering permanent changes in thinking, mood and behavior. My areas of expertise include psycho-educational assessments, play therapy for young children, individual counseling for older children and adults, social skills training and parenting skills training. I also work with families for a variety of problems including resolving marital, family, sexual problems, step-parenting, blended families and coping with teen-related issues. I also work with couples helping them through the process of identifying, recognizing, discussing and managing the challenges that couples often face. I am fluent in English and Portuguese.
