​Dr. Maureen Gorman obtained her BA and MA degrees in Psychology from the University of Guelph and her PhD in Psychology from York University in Toronto in 1983. She has 40 years of experience as a psychologist in both psychiatric and general hospitals, in community outreach, and in private practice.  She started out in Ontario for 6 years before accepting a position at (then) the CampHill Hospital, now part of the Nova Scotia Health Authority. Maureen has served on professional boards including the Nova Scotia Board of Examiners in Psychology (NSBEP) and the Association of Psychologists of Nova Scotia (APNS), and in executive positions at national and provincial levels of various associations (e.g., the Alzheimer Society and the Canadian Association on Gerontology). She is a past-member of the local Serving Seniors Alliance Cooperative. Currently, she is a member of the APNS, and is a registered psychologist through the NSBEP. Maureen has been downsizing her private practice to 1 day a week and no longer accepts clients for therapy. She is now focussing on assessment work, of trauma and stress-related disorders, and of mental health issues arising primarily out of workplace stressors.  The assessment uses a life-span developmental approach to help account for additional contributing factors towards the presentation of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Anxiety and/or Depression, for example. The measurement of how those issues interfere with the client’s functioning in life (e.g., sleep, substance use, grief, coping skills) are incorporated  in these assessments.

Maureen continues to be available for consultation, workshops and staff training.
