COVID-19 Updates
As a practicing registered Social Worker I continue to follow the latest updates and College recommendations to provide a safe practice and follow the the Ministry of Health and Public Health directives. As a member I also apply the Ethics-A:Ethical Decision-Making Tool. In practice I also continue to review and follow the College's centralized COVID-19 webpage in order to service and protect my clients.
We thank all clients and potential clients for their patience during this challenging time, and I am available for any questions you may have.
I'm a Registered Social Worker who is dedicated to working with people wanting to explore and create personal and social transformations in a welcoming, non-judgmental, safe, empathic, comfortable space.
My methods are informed by evidence-based approaches, formal education, ongoing clinical practice training and my life experiences. Together we journey through your life experiences that inform you. I believe you are the expert in your story. Life at all stages, can present us with challenges and we can come to a place where we identify, we need change. Feeling “stuck” and “lost” can be very overwhelming and this can cause you to lose your balance and way of being.
Our work together is client-centred and solution-focused as clients work toward finding a new rebalance at a pace that is client defined. As a full-time therapist with extensive clinical experience with adults, families, and seniors, I have worked in a variety of settings such as hospital, community and private practice. With this clinical practice experience I bring a solid practice approach due to my varied roles providing individual and family support counselling, psychotherapeutic approaches and case management.
As a therapist, I am dedicated to helping clients recognize their areas of strength and regain their mental health and wellness. This is accomplished through exploration, healthy boundary setting and challenging the impacts of life’s stressors, whereby they begin to challenge entrenched core beliefs that had prior kept them stuck and unwell.
“Happiness, not in another place but this place, not for another hour but this hour”
Walt Whitman
