As a clinical social worker I have had the privilege of walking beside acutely ill and often terminal patients (and families). Many times those patients struggle with severe addiction and trauma, and want to find a different way to live. Even if addiction or trauma are not the primary issues, the pain. suffering and fear that accompanies a life limiting illness, mood disturbance, relationship conflict or loss, can be extraordinary. I believe people are the experts of their own lived experience. My job is to provide compassion, insight and direction (when required) for that pain, with the intention of creating a healing path forward.

In creating a safe space we can then look at targeted treatments and approaches to maladaptive coping, addiction, illness adjustment etc. I endeavour to always be clear, honest and forthcoming with my thoughts, and feelings. I believe in using self in a way that creates a partnership in your healing journey. This authenticity promotes equality.

When it comes to suffering, shame often prevents people from getting the help they desire and need. Especially those who appear to be “functioning” on the outside. As a person in long term addiction recovery and as therapist with experience I will always do my part in providing a compassionate and safe space to explore feelings, experiences and solutions.
