​

 

Welcome! I am a Registered Social Worker in good standing with the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers as well as the Ontario Association of Social Workers. I am also registered as a Certified Solution Focused Therapist (CSFT) with the Canadian Council of Professional Certification (CCPC) Global Inc.

 

I have an Honours Bachelors degree in Psychology and a Master of Social Work degree. Since 2009, I have worked in community service and health care settings, with the majority of my experience gained at pediatric and adult rehabilitation hospitals in inpatient and outpatient Social Work roles helping people with disabilities and their families with emotional adjustment, discharge planning, and transitioning back to their homes and their daily lives with new needs and challenges as well as resource supports.

​

In addition to my core services supporting adults and families affected by disability and chronic illness, I also provide counselling to help adults who are struggling with:

• anxiety

• depression

• grief

• low self-esteem

• relationship issues

• stress/burnout

• major life transitions

• health care navigation

 

I am a registered provider with WSIB (Workplace Safety Insurance Board) for clients accessing workplace injury insurance benefits. 

​

My perspective is that my clients have the inner strength, resilience, and ability to make meaningful changes in their lives to achieve their goals and live as independently as possible. 

 

Offering a non-judgmental, client-centred, compassionate, supportive, and solution-focused space is important to me in order to help clients cope with their challenges, create a plan, and realize their full potential.​
