Life can be very challenging and we all move up and down the continuum of well-being at different points. No one should feel alone in managing and moving through these difficult times and being invited to walk alongside you on that journey is a privilege.  

I am a Registered Social Worker and I hold a Masters Degree in Social Work from the University of Toronto and Bachelor of Social Work and Bachelor of Sociology from York University. I have been practicing for 25 years and have worked in a variety of settings, including children’s mental health, education, and child welfare, as both therapist and clinical supervisor. 

Each client is unique and brings into the therapeutic relationship their own valid perspective and experiences. Sometimes when we are overwhelmed we forget the resources and strengths that are innate to us. I provide a transparent but gentle approach. I offer a safe and empathic environment that cultivates a strong connection with my clients. I work collaboratively to draw on individual strengths and inner wisdom, while offering alternative possibilities and strategies that draw from evidence informed modalities, in addition to my learnings and experiences through the years. I am passionate about understanding how our earliest relationships and experiences continue to influence our frame of reference through the years, how to integrate those experiences, and to implement coping that supports resilience. 

I know that together we can work through the challenges you are facing.  I hope that you will reach out.  So grab your coffee or tea and let's begin. 

Clinical Supervision for Professionals:

My 11 years of experience as a Clinical Supervisor is enhanced by certification in Advanced Clinical Supervision with Adler Graduate Professional School. The opportunity to guide, mentor, and consult with fellow professionals from a competency based approach is most rewarding. Whether you are new to the field, or a seasoned clinician, supervision provides opportunity to identify learning goals and a framework to develop clinical competencies.
