Lindsay

Dr Lindsay Borovay

Psychologist

“An experienced clinical psychologist who offers psycho-educational assessment and therapy for children, adolescents, and adults.”

About Me

I support children, adolescents, and adults in understanding their unique learning and emotional landscapes. Through assessment and therapy, we work together to uncover individual strengths and develop practical strategies. My aim is to help you gain clarity on challenges impacting your learning or well-being. Clients find a welcoming space to explore their experiences and build confidence for a more effective way forward.

Approach

I focus sessions on translating assessment findings into simple, everyday steps that fit each person's learning and emotional rhythm. In my Ottawa clinic and through English-language virtual appointments, sessions are paced to match attention and emotional capacity, with clear agendas and small, practical experiments between meetings. We track what works, adjust strategies for school, home, or work, and use brief skill-practice so progress feels tangible. This approach tends to suit families and individuals seeking collaborative, straightforward support for attention, mood, or learning challenges.
