I am passionate about creating a safe, non-judgemental, compassionate environment with you to foster trust and growth; so we can create change and assist you in achieving your goals. I will help empower you to connect with yourself and others in a way that makes you feel a sense of belonging, contentment and confidence. I will be creative in offering you evidence-based tools, coping mechanisms, strategies and support that will help you progress toward meeting your goals and living your best life. EXPERIENCE I am a Registered Social Worker with a Bachelor of Social Work from the University of Victoria and a Master’s in Social Work from Dalhousie University. I have over 20 years of social work experience working with clients from diverse backgrounds and experiences. I have worked different roles in varying setting, including private practice, Provincial Mental Health and Substance Use, Community Mental Health, Indigenous Communities, Provincial Child Advocate and legal advocacy roles. As a Métis from the Treaty 6 territory in Saskatchewan and MNS, I have served in various roles within Indigenous communities. Through my own personal journey, I have found the value of healing through culture. I also live with inattentive ADHD. I consider it to be both my superpower and my kryptonite (depending on the day!)
