I’m a Registered Social Worker and Child and Youth Care Practitioner with almost 20 years experience working with diverse children, youth, individuals and families in a variety of settings. Finding a therapist you connect with is one of the most important things in supporting mental wellness. I use a warm, empathetic eclectic and integrative approach, I'm strength-based and non-judgmental with a focus on building a professional relationship with you. I use humour (as appropriate!) and work alongside you to support with your goals.
I support with topics like anxiety, depression, family dynamics, attachment, ADHD, trauma, grief from a culturally inclusive, trauma-informed, anti-oppressive, and humanistic lens with individuals and families of diverse backgrounds and communities.
I speak fluent English and Spanish, and want to help you identify your needs and support your mental wellness. I offer a free consultation where you can ask questions and determine if this will be a good fit. I will take the time to get to know you and establish and maintain an effective therapeutic relationship. When you are ready, please reach out to me!
