As a mother of three, I bring a personal understanding of family dynamics to my practice. My passion for art and learning fuels my commitment to providing the best possible care.
Over the past six years, I have worked within the Saskatchewan Health Authority, always maintaining a strong focus on cultural representation and advocacy, championing an anti-colonial approach.
I have also worked for a national employment family assistance program as a mental health psychotherapist working with clients to develop and implement personalized interventions and treatments. I am passionate about fostering resilience and supporting well-being through innovative, client-centered approaches.
With client diversity, I agree that being a member of a visible minority strengthens me with the skills and resources to create safe spaces for individuals, families and communities.
