Summary
As a culturally competent Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), I offer a safe space for those dealing with chronic illness, disability, trauma, and life transitions. My journey began on Remembrance Day in 2004, when I had an epileptic seizure, broke my neck, and acquired a traumatic spinal cord injury. Now using a power wheelchair, I draw from both education and lived experience to guide clients on their paths to better lives. Together, we can uncover opportunities and possibilities. Let me be your guide on this transformative journey to a better quality-of-life.
