​

I originally started my career as a Developmental Service worker over 17 years ago supporting
individuals with developmental disabilities. My strong desire to help people to create meaningful
changes in their lives led me to become a social worker. I hold both Bachelor and Master of Social Work
from Laurentian University. I am a member in good standing with the Ontario College of Social Workers
and Social Service Workers.

I have extensive experience supporting individuals across all spans of their lifetime including children,
teens, adults, and seniors. I provide support to individuals with a variety of concerns such as anxiety,
depression, social anxiety, self-esteem, stress management, burnout, life transitions, chronic pain,
insomnia, panic, self harm, trauma, and grief.

I support couples to find their way back to each other and grow. I help them to identify underlying
concerns, establish a deep and meaningful emotional connection, build better communication skills,
unveil new understanding of each other, and recover intimacy in order to flourish and build a loving,
exciting, and caring relationship.

Rather than adopting one methodology for all individuals and concerns, I utilize a variety of methods to
create a tailored approach unique to each individual depending on their treatment needs. I draw from
an eclectic framework of therapeutic modalities such as cognitive behaviour therapy, dialectal behaviour
therapy, emotion focused therapy, mindfulness, somatic and polyvagal approaches. Additionally, I
utilize a wide variety of trauma informed approaches to facilitate healing. My therapeutic approaches
consider the complex interconnections between the biological, psychological, and social aspects of an
individual’s life.

​

My role is to provide support and guidance to my clients. I believe in establishing a meaningful connection in order to help them draw on their own strengths, develop new skills and strategies to empower them to make positive changes in their life. I offer a safe, non-judgmental, and encouraging environment so you feel comfortable and empowered. I look forward to having the privilege of accompanying you on a journey of healing and self-discovery!

Personally Speaking
​I am originally from Northern Ontario and I have a passion for the great outdoors! When I am not busy
helping clients, you can find me hiking, skiing, paddle boarding, skating, biking, camping and spending
time at the cottage. I love yoga and reading a good book. I love spending time with friends and my
family!
