Description
Before receiving my counselling degree, I worked for over 20 years in the social services field, working to help those with mental health, addictions and personal/family issues resolve their challenges to lead their best lives. Connection and community are integral aspects of wellness. Therefore, my work involves looking at the whole person from a bio-psychosocial standpoint. I offer specialized PTSD and trauma-related services, such as DBT and EMDR from a strengths-based, trauma-informed, solution-focused, relational approach. I also work with personality disorders, anxiety and depression.
