I have been a registered social worker and psychotherapist for 25 years, working in women’s shelters and mental health clinics as a counsellor and clinical director. My experience and evidence based training is key, however most important is the real human connection I foster with my clients. Together, we will develop an individualized plan, giving you the skills and tools needed to achieve your goals. It is also helpful to simply be heard and validated. Dealing with anxiety, depression, stress, substance use, relationships is challenging; I can help you with that.
It is so important to have a good fit with your counsellor. I am happy to meet with you for a free 15 minute consultation. I look forward to working with you.
