I earned a Master of Social Work degree from the University of Toronto and I am a Registered Social Worker with the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers (OCSWSSW). I have been working for Peterborough Youth Services as a Clinical Counsellor doing psychotherapy since 2013, working one-to-one with youth aged 10-18 and their families. You can look at the training I have done below and I learn more every day from talking to people about what it takes to move through hard times. I have also worked in hospice palliative care and grief for a couple of decades. The common thread through all my work has been working with people with the intention of moving toward a better day to day life. I have recently done training and have become a Clinical Supervisor, helping other therapists improve their practice.
