Hello,

I am a Registered Social Worker with over 10 years of experience working in the front line of mental health and substance use services. I currently work between Forensic social work and private practice.   My educational background is in community support and I hold a Bachelor of Social Work.

My approach is individualized and tailored to each individual's unique strengths, challenges, and goals. Using evidence-based strategies and interventions, I offer trauma-informed and anti-oppressive care. I enjoy working with people who live life outside the box and ally myself in working alongside the LGBTQIA2S+ community. 

I have 10 years working with individuals who experience, mental health and addiction concerns. I also have worked alongside individuals who are navigating complex systems of care, including the Ministry of Social Development (MSD), the Ministry of Children and Family Development (MCFD), and the Representative for Children and Youth (RCY). Additionally, I have specialized experience in working alongside young and expecting mothers, and with youth and adults who have concerns with mental health and substance use challenges.

On a personal note, I am a tattoo collector and advocate for youth.  I am a mother of four who inspire me on a daily basis.  I also identify as part of the Metis Nation.

Direct Billing to Metis Nation is available and some extended benefits.
