He developed Guelph’s first cognitive therapy group with Dr. Watt, former CEO of the Homewood Health Centre and was the founding member of the first inter-agency team that developed an effective community treatment approach for people with a variety of mental health issues and dementia (Trellis, now CMHA, and Homewood out-patient service).
