Personal Statement:
As a Social Worker, I am available to provide support and advocacy with completion of challenging paperwork, from Persons With Disabilities applications to End of Life Planning. My goal is to help clients navigate the many challenges of coping in a fast paced, often confusing world. I also provide Grief and Bereavement support/counselling in Hospices, hospitals, homes or at memorial events. Compassionate supervised visitation and reporting services are available to meet child custody and legal needs.
As a Registered Clinical Counsellor, I am available for individual counselling and group services for a variety of issues. Compassion and safety are paramount in my work, and my role is to help you identify what you need to feel better and function better.
Using client centered, down-to-earth but evidence based tools, sessions are based on the latest science as well as new practices shown to be effective for different issues. I believe truly Holistic practice recognizes the need for both spiritual balance and clinical knowledge in supporting safety and long term benefit.
