With over 15 years of experience in the field of mental health, and another 10 beyond that in child development and care, I realize that life happens in many forms, with everyone experiencing and perceiving it differently. I see everyone as an individual whose shoes I can never walk in, but hopefully I can support and walk beside for a time. I bring much experience working with children, youth, adults, and their families. Through holding a therapeutic relationship and counselling, I believe I can support clients in moving beyond a difficult time in life.
I use a cognitive behavioural and solution focused approach for much of my work, along with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. However, the population that I work with requires me to be eclectic in approach in such a way that I am able to match their needs with tools, strategies and ways of thinking that are new assets to my clients. I am recently the recipient of a cochlear implant after a few years of deafness in my left ear, as well as having Meniere’s Disease and Tinnitus (I have the life experience too!)
I am a member in good standing as an RECE with The College of Early Childhood Educators of Ontario, and a Registered Psychotherapist with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO).
