Description
I am registered social worker with 20+ years of experience working with vulnerable populations. I centre my clinical practice on social justice and how individuals are shaped by their environment. My aim is to support clients in addressing their needs within the social context of inequality, oppression, and their family dynamic. I facilitate problem solving processes whilst encouraging clients to redefine their value and reevaluate their relationship with self and others. My practise modalities are evidence based. I value building therapeutic relationships as the foundation in my work.
