Over the past 16 years, I’ve had a wide variety of experience in counselling and therapy roles.
In addition to private practice, I’ve worked as a therapist in:
residential treatment centres
elementary schools
community agencies
pediatric palliative care at the Stollery Children’s Hospital
I’ve also facilitated several long term community art groups, using a welcoming, open-studio format.
