About Me

Originally from Newfoundland, Fort McMurray has been my home for 17 years. I am a Registered Clinical Social Worker with a Master of Social Work focusing in mental health. My primary areas of practice are treating anxiety, mood related concerns and symptoms of trauma for both children and adults.

I have been working in the health and mental health field for many years in our region providing therapy and supportive care for a wide array of mental health concerns. I am so grateful to share in the wellness of our resilient community.
