Facility Information

Summary

I am a culturally competent Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) that offers a caring and compassionate approach combined with a variety of evidence-based therapeutic modalities to help you build resilience and meet your goals, as each client is unique.

Coupled with my education I have a huge amount of lived experience. On Remembrance Day in 2004, I had an epileptic seizure, fell 6', broke my neck, and acquired a spinal cord injury.

After lots of work I made the decision to see all the opportunities and possibilities. I would be grateful to be your guide on your journey to a better life.
