I have been a registered social worker for close to 25 years. I have an MSW from McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario (Canada) where I spent the first years of my career before moving to KW.

I have a broad range of experience supporting individuals and families facing a variety of life's challenges. I have advanced training in working with those who have experienced trauma and PTSD, as well as anxiety, depression, loss, and intimate partner violence. I work from a trauma-informed and client-centered approach. I am able to provide services in English, Portuguese and Spanish.
