Dr. Diana Brecher is the Scholar-in-Residence for Positive Psychology at Toronto Metropolitan University. She is a clinical psychologist who has been working at Toronto Metropolitan University since 1991. Diana spent 25 years in the Centre for Student Development and Counselling (CSDC) as a counsellor, supervisor and director. She was awarded the Ontario Psychological Association award for excellence in clinical teaching in 2013, primarily for her role as a clinical supervisor of psychology graduate students.

As adjunct faculty in the Toronto Metropolitan University Psychology Department, she has taught several graduate courses in CBT and clinical supervision to graduate students and mental health professionals through the Chang School.

Diana’s long-standing interest and certification in Positive Psychology led to developing the ThriveRU program within Student Affairs.

Diana's long-term goal is to infuse Toronto Metropolitan University’s programming, services and curriculum with principles of resilience and flourishing and to help facilitate a cultural change within the university.
