Experience
With a rich history of clinical experience, I am devoted to helping others discover and unlock their true potential. My work experience has afforded me the privilege of working with clients from various multi-cultural backgrounds who have struggled with addiction, trauma, PTSD, C-PTSD, and mood and anxiety disorders. I have worked in residential treatment centres, outpatient clinics and at the community level throughout Canada and the United States. I have been blessed to have played a role in the transformational process of hundreds of people.
I use a trauma informed, psychodynamic approach that allows me to explore how early life experiences have contributed to present day beliefs and behaviours. I use CBT and DBT modalities to help clients identify and change unhelpful thought patterns, manage overwhelming emotions and build healthier relationships. I believe that the therapeutic relationship is paramount in creating a recipe for change. I welcome people from all walks of life and strive to create a space where everyone feels seen, heard and valued.
