I have experience working with children, teens and young adults who are dealing with social and emotional issues, while striving to strengthen their internal locus of control. Outside of counselling, I work with individuals in the Vancouver Downtown Eastside who are living with addiction and housing insecurity. Through this work, I have developed an appreciation that mental health challenges can be exacerbated by both internal and external factors, such as past trauma and poverty.
I did my Master's in creative arts therapies, with a focus on drama therapy. I have experience in using martial arts and role playing games as a therapeutic tool for youth with learning disabilities and am excited to offer these tools to a wider population. I have also developed an appreciation and familiarity with behavioral therapy tools and practices.
As an individual who has been diagnosed with a bipolar disorder, I have lived the journey from illness to recovery. While I recognise that everyone's journey is different, I believe that the my personal insights, as well as my professional, and academic background will be helpful in developing an integrative approach that suits you.

I have worked extensively with individuals with addiction and depression. I approach the healing process in both practical and creative ways. My work with children and youth on the spectrum inspired me to explore how Dungeons and Dragons could be used to assist youth on the spectrum, which became the subject of my master's thesis.

Talk therapy will be the initial foundation of our process. I also use a variety of tools that were imparted to me through my education and experience. While I have not reached the high level of training and supervision required to be certified as a therapist in modalities beyond drama therapy, I am nonetheless able to integrate their perspectives and interventions in to our sessions.
