I grew up on a family farm in rural Manitoba and have focused most of my 40 year career in rural based child and adolescent community mental health . I have had the pleasure to meet with numerous children, adolescents, parents and families in the west-man area. Along with my RPN BScMH background, I hold an Advanced Certificate in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry. As such I am passionate about helping children, teenagers , as well as their families. I wholeheartedly believe that with early intervention we can create a lasting change for the future. I work collaboratively with children and adults to create a healing space .
I have extensive experience in working with mental health issues and behavioral challenges including ADHD, Mood Disorders, Suicidal Ideation ,Anxiety Disorders, Relational Issues, Attachment Trauma , Body Image, Self Esteem, Bullying, Grief Loss, Separation and Divorce. I utilize clinical interventions integrating evidence based frameworks.
It is my privilege to guide individuals as they unlock new ways of being, thinking, and experiencing themselves in the world. Whether you are dealing with a major life obstacle or healing an old wound, I look forward to working with you with compassion and warmth and honoring your personal strengths and needs.
