I am a fully Certified Play Therapist and a Certified Play Therapy Supervisor through the Canadian Association for Play Therapy. I am a Certified EMDR Therapist and work with all ages using this modality. I have over 20 years of experience in working with children, youth and families from various ethno-racial backgrounds and in various mental health settings including child welfare, hospital, school, and the community. I am a service provider for Victim Services, the Internet Child Exploitation program at BOOST, Metis Nation of Ontario, Indigenous Services Canada, and previously for the 2-Spirited People of the First Nations.

I work with clients 18 and over. Being motivated to change is certainly a plus but not a prerequisite as I do appreciate that change can be very difficult. I also provide highly effective supervision to clinicians of varying experience. Note: My Practice is completely virtual

Accepting New Clients; No Waitlist - I guide adults to connect with the evidence and knowledge gained from their experiences to transform their relationships with themselves and others. Come to my practice if you want to experience the three MMLC guiding principles that will restructure your thinking patterns by guiding you into accessing the knowledge you hold (you being the expert in your experiences), joining it to your present day self with everything you have learned (subconscious into the conscious), and guiding you into creating a new knowledge base rooted in authenticity, empowerment, and valuable connections (neuro-pysch)

Aset Group Consulting and Counselling Services is a group practice specializing in depression, trauma, adoption, family counselling, depression& more. Our approach is flexible to your needs, client-centered and goal-oriented.

Looking for the right therapist can be challenging and stressful. When I sit across from a client, I value and respect that I am being invited into important, personal situations, thoughts, and vulnerabilities. My philosophy to clinical work comes from my belief that you are trying to do the best you can and want support to do better. I will both accept you for where you are at, while helping you pushing toward the change you are looking for. I collaborate with my clients to then tailor the therapy I provide to the individual-pulling on my experience, trainings, and the understanding that we all are human.

Our sessions are structured to address the root problem. With the lens from EMDR therapy and an AOP (anti-oppressive practice), we enter the memory network to reprocess the experiences that are hurting your current state of mind. I will provide a compassionate and non-judgmental environment. It's important to note that my scope of practice revolves around trauma, anxiety, depression, family stability, ADHD and ADD. I have obtained a Masters in Social Work and have experience supporting children, youth, adults and family units for 13 years.
