The primary populations I work with are the chronically ill and disabled (CID) individuals, and their family/caregivers, and members of the 2SLGBTQ communities. The similarities between these groups are that they are marginalized, often discriminated against, and generally not well understood. Being a CID person, I relate to these feelings and provide a special level of compassion and support.

The treatment type used will depend on the client. Each treatment plan is created collaboratively with the client, to support their specific lifestyle. Individuals are unique, so their treatment will be, too. I will combine modalities to ensure each client's specific needs are always being met.
