Description
I am a Registered Psychotherapist and Canadian Certified Counsellor in good standing. I started Kernel of Wisdom in 2014 as a mindfulness meditation teacher. I have been working in mental health as a Psychotherapist since 2017. I have a wide variety of experience in private practice, hospital, and community environments. This includes working as a therapist with The Trauma Centre, at Bellwood Health Services, and at Georgian College. I also have work experience with “urban schools”, Catholic Children’s Aid Society, and a number of not-for-profit organizations for youth.

Kernel Of Wisdom
Summary
None of us knows what to do all of the time. Yet, seeking help is often the hardest step toward change. It's normal to have mixed feelings about it - but if your current strategies aren't working or getting you results, and you're not sure how to change, it might be time to seek some support so you can break into something new. My evidence-based services will help you examine your thoughts, feelings, and behaviours more holistically, and realistically. In addition, you will learn specific strategies for coping and self-reflection that allow you to change whatever no longer serves you.
