About Me

With 15 years of experience in the mental health field, I provide individual and family therapy for children ,youth, and adults. My approach is collaborative, client-centred, and empowering, grounded in my belief that each person has an innate capacity for healing and growth.

I began my career with Child and Youth Mental Health as a Trauma Specialist, supporting children, youth, and families impacted by trauma and adverse childhood experiences. My clinical experience includes working with trauma, anxiety, depression, and attachment-related concerns.

I hold a Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Social Work (2002), and Master of Social Work (2009). My postgraduate training includes EMDR, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), interpersonal psychotherapy ,dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT), play therapy, attachment-based interventions, and suicide risk assessment and intervention. I am also completing Somatic Experiencing training, with completion anticipated in December 2026.

Clinical Supervision

As a BCACC Approved Clinical Supervisor, I bring 15 years of mental health experience and 11 years of direct clinical supervision experience. My background includes supervising Child and Youth Mental Health teams as a team leader and providing ongoing supervision to private practice clinicians since 2021.

I am trained in the Neurosequential Model of Supervision and Somatic Experiencing. My supervision approach emphasizes nervous system awareness, reflection, and supportive exploration. I strive to create a collaborative and encouraging space where clinicians can deepen their clinical skills, strengthen their confidence, and provide compassionate, effective, client-centred care.
