Dr. Ken Colosimo, PhD., C.Psych

Niagara Flow Psychology was established by Ken Colosimo, Clinical Psychologist. Dr. Colosimo was born and raised in Niagara Falls and after a decade of living outside the region to pursue his academic and professional goals, he returned to his hometown to create a psychology practice for the community.

Dr. Colosimo is a member of the College of Psychologists of Ontario, Ontario and Canadian Psychological Associations, and International Society of Schema Therapy. Dr. Colosimo obtained his doctoral degree from York University and has clinically trained and worked at several leading academic hospitals. He utilizes an evidence-based and integrative approach to therapy that is heavily influenced by humanistic-existential, cognitive-behavioural, and psychodynamic-attachment theoretical frameworks. He has published peer-reviewed research papers on topics of mindfulness, self-compassion, and therapist presence, and these concepts represent a significant part of his thinking and work as a clinician. Dr. Colosimo also has extensive experience conducting psychological assessments of different kinds and in different contexts (e.g., psychoeducational; MVA; WSIB; medical-legal).

Assessments vary in the level of complexity depending on presenting concerns and referral context (e.g. MVA, WSIB, medical-legal, personal interest, other).

  • Comprehensive evaluation of cognitive, academic and socio-emotional abilities for the purpose of diagnosis (e.g. specific learning disorder, ADHD, etc.) and recommendations for treatment and academic accommodations.

“Flow is an optimal state of consciousness, a peak state where we both feel and perform our best. We become so involved in an activity that nothing else seems to matter. The ego falls away. Time flies. Every action, movement and thought follows inevitably from the previous one, like playing jazz. Your whole being is involved, and you’re using your skills to the utmost.”
