Geriatric and Seniors Therapists in Kitchener, ON

I became a Social Worker because of this intrinsic desire to walk alongside people through their pain and into their growth. As I’ve continued my own growth, both personally and professionally, I have developed a deep passion for working with folks across the lifespan, from ages 8 to 90, as they work towards healing and peace. I have worked with folks with various neurotypes, substance use and addiction, those experiencing housing insecurity and poverty, intimate partner violence/domestic violence, trauma and attachment challenges, self-esteem, emotion regulation, self-harm, suicidal ideation/suicidality, Dementia, and TBI/ABIs.

I believe mental health is a spectrum in which we all strive for wellness.

I also have a strong passion in supporting older adults and clients of all ages who may be struggling to manage their grief. I am certified to support those on their end-of-life journey, including MAiD, and anyone impacted along the way.

Relationship dynamics: We all struggle with developing and maintaining healthy relationships. I can help you identify unhealthy patterns in your relationships (romantic, family, friendships, etc.) and work with you to improve your relationship skills.

Individual Counselling is a process through which I meet with clients one-on-one in a safe, caring, and confidential environment.

I may meet with a client for as few as five or six sessions or as long as several years, depending on the their unique needs and personal goals for therapy.
