I am a Registered Social Worker in Alberta, practicing in the Edmonton area, a Registered Social Worker with the British Columbia College of Social Workers offering telehealth therapy to residents of BC and a Licensed Social Worker with The Northwest Territories Department of Health and Social Services providing telehealth therapy to residents of the NWT and Yukon. I have been employed as a social worker for over twenty five years. I graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of Alberta in 1996 and a Bachelor of Social Work from the University of Calgary in 1999. In 2020, I completed the Master of Social Work program through Wilfrid Laurier University.

I have advanced training in EMDR including:
-The Advanced Practice of EMDR for Perinatal and Infant Mental Health
-Recent Traumatic Episode Protocol (RTEP)
-An Introduction to Working with Clients Presenting Early Life Trauma from an EMDR Perspective

My areas of special interest and expertise include trauma, childhood attachment wounds, working with first responders, depression, anxiety, postpartum/perinatal mood disorders for both birthing and non-birthing parents, grief and loss, relationship issues and adjustment to stressful or new life circumstances. I have Perinatal Mental Health Certification (PMH-C).

My goal is to work collaboratively with clients in order to support individuals and couples in achieving goals they have set for themselves using a client-centered approach.
