I have been a Registered Social Worker working in healthcare for almost 20 years. I have always been, and continue to be, the friend and family member who goes to great lengths to support others, so naturally a career in therapy made sense for me. In working with me, I will support you in your journey to optimum health, which means allowing yourself to nurture your mental health. Learning to be compassionate with yourself, as you likely are with others, is one of the many focuses I take with clients in therapy. Giving yourself permission to take care of yourself is not selfish; it is vital to good health and happiness. It is helpful to remember that taking care of yourself allows you to help care for others. I am a busy working mother and I understand the struggle of balancing the many aspects of life. I find that carving out some personal time for self-care can really go a long way in finding that balance. In my spare time, I love to spend time with my family and friends and also going for walks with our sweet Australian Labradoodle, Cooper.
