You’ve got the potential for more. Let’s reveal the best version of you.

Together.

I take a strengths-based, compassionate approach to my work with clients and am passionate about helping others to better understand who they really are, what they really need, and to ultimately live their best life, whatever that might look like. In the practice, I provide sport psychology services to athletes and teams to optimize performance, evidence-based programs to enhance health and support lifestyle change, as well as mindfulness-based interventions for stress reduction, eating, and physical activity. I also offer educational and career assessments for clients of all ages to help them gain insight into their strengths and needs, and a clearer path toward their optimal performance.

I am a Registered Psychological Associate (CPO #5260) providing counselling/therapy and educational assessments within the practice. I aim to make clients feel as comfortable and as safe as possible so that your work together is as effective as possible. I know the scariest step is often the first one you make to reach out for help. After that, you can exhale (at least a little bit), because you will have made a healthy choice in asking for support - and that’s a huge step!

I provide therapy and assessment services in the practice and am a registered Psychological Associate with the College of Psychologists of Ontario (CPO; Reg.#7166). I provide educational assessments and therapy for teens and adults. I hold a M.Sc. in Clinical Psychology from Western University and completed all coursework and clinical training toward my PhD. I have worked in the practice since 2015.

I received my Master of Counselling Psychology degree from Western University in 2017. I am registered as a Psychological Associate with the College of Psychologists of Ontario (CPO #7275) and provide counselling and assessment services for children, teens, and adults.

Sarah obtained her M.A. in Counselling Psychology from Western University in 2017. She is registered with the College of Psychotherapist of Ontario (CRPO) as a Registered Psychotherapist (RP; #006381) and holds the title of Certified Canadian Counsellor (CCC; #10000877) through the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association (CCPA).

In the practice, Sarah provides therapy services to children, youth, and families.

Outside of the practice, Sarah is employed by the Thames Valley District School Board (TVDSB) as a School Support Counsellor, where she provides counselling to elementary students.

Noam received her Master’s degree in School and Clinical Child Psychology from the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education (OISE) at the University of Toronto. She is currently completing her supervised practice year under Dr. Forbes’ supervision to become fully registered as a Psychological Associate with the College of Psychologists of Ontario (CPO). Noam works part-time in the practice and provides assessment and therapy services to children and adolescents.

In addition to her work at the practice, Noam works for the Thames Valley District School Board (TVDSB) in the Psychological Services department, where she conducts psycho-educational assessments, provides counselling, and offers consultation services to school teams.

I have a passion for supporting others to develop and deepen self-knowledge, self-acceptance, self-compassion and self-confidence to achieve their best in sport, education, work and life. In my work at Dr Forbes and Associates, I am particularly interested in supporting young people and their families, and athletes of all ages. I represented Australia in Rowing for many years, and know first hand the highs and lows of sport and the importance of effective mental strategies to support performance. I obtained my Doctorate (PsyD) through Deakin University in Australia and registered as a Psychologist with the College of Psychologists of Ontario (CPO# 7492). In the practice, I provide therapy for children and teens, and sport psychology services for athletes of all ages.

I am a PhD candidate in the Clinical Psychology program at Western University. As part of my training, I completed an assessment practicum placement with Dr. Forbes & Associates in the summer of 2021 and stayed on to work part-time as a psychometrist to further enhance my assessment skills. I provide career and psychoeducational assessments in the practice under the supervision of Dr. Forbes.
