I have worked with individuals whose life journey carried them through emergency psychiatric services, correctional centers, addiction and mental health programs, and child, family, couple, and individual wellness.
I am a registered Psychotherapist, registered Social Worker and certified Play Therapist. Life's journey can be filled with moments of victory and joy, and moments of sadness and struggle. There will be times when you persevere and times when you will need courage. Life's journey can bring you to a crossroad leading you to ask which direction to follow. Should you find that your life's journey is presenting challenge or adversely impacting your emotional, mental, physical or spiritual well-being, and you are seeking to increase your wellness, let's work together to find your inner peace.

The children and adolescents I work with present with a variety of mental health issues such as anxiety, depression, autism spectrum disorder, ADHD, or self-harming behaviours. They might be struggling to manage their emotions and behaviours and may want assistance in achieving their therapeutic goals. I also support parents who want to learn ways in which they can best support their child during these difficult times. The parents I work with often struggle to manage their child's outbursts or meltdowns. I help them be more in tune with their child's emotions and provide strategies that help facilitate a secure attachment.

I currently work as a Clinical Manager in children’s mental health supervising 15 therapists who are RP (Qual) or already registered with either OCSWSSW or CRPO.
I have vacancy to supervise a few counsellors/ therapists. My style is to follow your individual style and provide suggestions to fit your treatment methodology of choice. I believe supervision can effectively support continuous professional growth whether a new or already seasoned therapist.

Art therapy is an ideal way for individuals or groups to explore therapy and find healing and support. Therapy can be joyful and creative. My ideal client is open to discover positive and supportive creative and client-focused approaches. Whether you require talk, expressive (non-verbal), brief, long-term, individual or group art therapy, it is a realistic goal. Art-making can explore your stuck or painful feelings, alter any thoughts or behaviours affected by fear, abuse, uncertainty, trauma, grief, loss, diminished moral, or work-stress and anxiety. I look forward to discuss your treatment goals and explore our journey together.

Child Counsellors
Child psychologists in L2S provide mental health therapy to children and are experts in child development.
Every comprehensive review of therapy with children shows that all credible approaches, when performed by a competent mental health clinician, produce almost the same results. About half of all kids will get better. Of those that improve, 80% will show progress in a relatively short time (likely in fewer than six sessions), the remaining 20% will need longer-term support.
The best child therapists in L2S build great relationships with the child and the parent. They also see the child's strengths and are open to hearing the child's possible solutions to the challenges the child faces. Finally, a good therapist appreciates the child's culture and is sensitive to the values of the child's community.
