About Me

I believe that there is strength in our diversity. Each individual brings their distinct experience, talents and culture to their healing journey. I strive to provide a therapeutic experience rooted in respect and equity.

I am committed to supporting issues of social justice.

I consistently update my training so that I am able to provide high quality therapeutic experiences to those I work with.

I am an artist at my core and have found that my career in psychotherapy has offered yet another medium to exercise my creative energy. I completed my Bachelor Degree in Fine Art at The Ontario College of Art and Design where I began studying psychology while exploring the psyche through art.

At that time,I brought my artistic skills and interest in human development to positions I held in early childhood education and caregiving. After nearly a decade in Toronto, my path then led me to Vancouver where I completed my Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology at The Adler School of Professional Counselling.

During my graduate education, I tailored my therapeutic experience toward working with children and families. While out West, I worked in day treatment classrooms, facilitated therapeutic groups for men and women involved in domestic abuse, facilitated psychoeducational groups for parents and foster-parents, managed the hiring and recruitment of early childhood educators and developed family-centred programming for community members of the Downtown Eastside of Vancouver. After several years, I made the decision to return to my hometown of St. Catharines.

Since returning to the Niagara Region, I have been working with adults, children and youth in the areas of divorce / separation, anger management, parenting, anxiety and depression, HIV, sexual abuse, trauma, domestic abuse, caregiver support, substance use, sexual /gender diversity and emotional regulation.

It has been quite the journey so far. I would be honored to be of help to you in yours.
