My interest and passion for health care began in my early adolescence as a volunteer at a school for children with special needs. In the years that followed I worked with people on the spectrum with high behavioural needs and also in group homes for people with chronic and severe mental illness.

I make sure I take the time to listen, understand and truly comprehend what a client needs and how they want to achieve it within a solution focused mindset

I particularly assist clients that require therapy in the areas of anxiety, substance abuse (other addictions), depression and relationship issues.

As a therapist, i work with various approaches such as: CBT, ACT, humanistic approach and TRTP (trauma therapy) amongst many other(s).
