Professional Focus: Counselling and Psychotherapy to assist clients in addressing stress, anger, the symptoms of depression, the symptoms of anxiety and trauma-related symptoms.

I am currently serving in the Canadian Armed Forces, having joined in 1999. From my military service, I have directly witnessed the traumatic effects of war.

In my professional practice with the military, I have learned how mental health concerns affects the human psyche. From my applied clinical experience, I have the skills to assist others in working to achieve improved mental health wellness.

I am a Registered Nurse (RN) with the College of Nurses of Ontario.
