About Maureen Whittal

Fundraising for all programs

I am a psychologist by training and co-founded Anxiety Canada (originally AnxietyBC) in 1999 with my colleague Dr. Peter McLean. I have seen throughout my career the power of evidence-based treatments to help people live better lives. I also know that it can be difficult and expensive to access this help and as such it is not available to everyone who wants and needs it. The creation and expansion of the resources at Anxiety Canada is my goal - the more resources the broader our reach and the more people we can help. It is important to me that these resources remain free or very low cost. Financial resources should not be a barrier to accessing health care.
