I work with children and youth who are struggling in different areas of their life and tend to be experiencing problems at home or school. I spend time helping children feel comfortable in the counselling environment by playing games, doing crafts, and utilizing other play therapy methods to establish a safe and trusting therapeutic space. With youth, I recognize this can be a challenging time of life and hold space for them to share their experiences in an empathetic and supportive manner. The goal is to provide children and youth with a safe space to share their emotional experiences and expand their coping strategies.

I have over 10 years of psychotherapy experience and have primarily worked with Indigenous children and youth. I am from Aundeck Omni Kaning First Nation and have Ojibway and Irish/Scottish heritage. I provide psychotherapy using a wholistic lens and utilize a person-centered approach. My therapeutic approach is trauma-informed and primarily reflects CBT and play therapy principles. I focus on helping clients identify their strengths, process emotional issues, expand their healthy coping skills, and learn new ways to handle challenging situations.

My educational background includes a Master of Arts in Clinical Psychology and a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology. To maintain my RP (qualifying) status, I am completing a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology (MACP) program, with a projected completion date of December 2025, as well as receiving clinical supervision.
