My background.

I am a Registered Social Worker/Psychotherapist in British Columbia and Ontario. I am also an RTT-Trained Hypnotherapist. I assist people achieve the life they dream of by helping them tap into their strengths and abilities through a greater awareness and understanding of their personal power.

I have 20 years of Social Work experience working in the mental health field as an allied health care professional in various health, research and corporate settings. I have provided clinical services in institutions, community, and home care settings to provide assessment, therapy, training, transition support and vocational counselling, in the private and public sectors.

I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Queen’s University, my Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Social Work from McGill University, and have completed ‘all-but-dissertation’ of a Ph.D in Health Policy, from the University of Toronto.

I practice from a Compassionate, Strengths-Based perspective, primarily drawing from my training in Solution-Focused Therapy, Rational Emotive Behavioural Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Eye Movement, Desensitization and Reprocessing, and Hypnotherapy approaches.

I believe, when you decide to see a therapist, the work is a collaboration, where you are the expert of your life and my role is to help you navigate through the complicated parts.
