Description
I have worked in a variety of settings and most recently, I’ve held dual roles as an Assistant Clinical Professor (Adjunct) with the Department of Family Medicine at McMaster University, as well as providing therapy to clients at a primary healthcare team. In collaboration, you and I will work together to decide which approach (or combination of approaches) will best meet your therapeutic goals. (*EMDR certification in process)
