About
Science, empathy, and genuine collaboration.
I'm a clinical psychologist and neuropsychologist who works across the lifespan through a developmental and trauma-informed lens.
Hi, I'm Sanya.
In both therapy and assessment, I aim to create a safe, collaborative space where people feel seen and supported. My approach is grounded in cultural safety and equity, and I'm especially committed to working with individuals and communities that have historically been underserved.
I have experience supporting people with neurodevelopmental conditions such as ADHD, autism, and learning disabilities; neurological conditions including brain injury, epilepsy, and dementia; and mental health concerns including anxiety, depression, OCD, trauma, and complex PTSD.
Across all of my work, I focus on understanding the whole person and offering clear, compassionate guidance that helps make the next steps feel more manageable.
Training & experience
I completed my MA and PhD at the University of Windsor in Clinical Psychology, with a specialization in Clinical Neuropsychology, and completed my residency through the Hamilton Health Sciences Clinical Neuropsychology program.
I previously worked as a clinical neuropsychologist in inpatient stroke rehabilitation and acquired brain injury neurorehabilitation at Hamilton Health Sciences. I also hold a part-time faculty appointment as Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioural Neurosciences at McMaster University.
Outside of work, I find joy in music, reading, creative writing, musical theatre, photography, walks in nature, and time with loved ones.
Please note: I do not provide MVA or medico-legal assessments or services.
