I have both my Bachelor’s and Master’s Degree in Social Work, and I am a registered social worker in Alberta and British Columbia. I have been working in the field for roughly ten years, and specifically as a therapist for the past three years.

I have worked as a support worker for adults with disabilities, a hospital social worker on various inpatient/outpatient units, a housing and transition support worker for youth aging out of care, an outreach counsellor for youth on Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside with barriers to accessing clinic services, and a concurrent therapist for adults with mental health and substance use struggles.

I started in the private therapy world with Kindred Roots Therapy (a practice in Alberta that redefines the traditional therapy experience), and I am forever grateful to them for allowing me to see a new balance of being a therapist and a human.

My lived and familial experiences with mental health and accessing services have shaped me into who I am and why I do what I do. I feel deeply grateful to get to do what I love.

I currently work part-time in public healthcare and part-time in private practice. Accessibility of mental health services, as well as my own autonomy and work-life balance are very important to me. My diverse professional experiences have given me many lenses to work from, and I hope that this flexibility in my practice can help to support you and your mental health goals.
