I am a lifelong resident of Thunder Bay. I have completed my BA and HBSW at Lakehead University and my MSW from Dalhousie University, specializing in Families and Children. For the past 30 years I have had the privilege to provide social work service to adults/children and youth. I previously worked at Catholic Family Development Centre providing supportive counselling services, as well as facilitating groups. I have worked with individuals of all ages whom have been impacted by violence, trauma, grief and loss and other life events that have cause emotional distress. My focus it to provide a safe, supportive and therapeutic service that meets the individual where they are at in their life journey using trauma informed practices. The goal is to empower individuals to identify their goals and to work towards achieving them. I am registered with the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers #817702

I am originally from Thunder Bay and subsequently have lived in a number of cities in Southern Ontario. I completed my Masters In Social Work at Wilfrid Laurier University and am a registered Social Worker in Ontario. I am passionate about working with people from a strength based approach and helping people develop skills towards reaching their own goals. I have extensive experience working with families in a variety of settings, primarily children with special needs and pediatric medicine. This has given me a unique lens for the experiences of grief and loss. I practice using a variety of modalities (CBT, DBT , Motivational Interviewing and Solution Focused), recognizing the most important therapeutic factor is a positive and trusting relationship.
