Over the years, I’ve gained relevant experience working within different interdisciplinary teams in medical and community health settings. Through my clinical work, I have always been dedicated and devoted to the therapeutic process by providing a safe and trusting environment.
My passion for this field started while completing a post Graduate degree in Addiction and Mental Health. Since then, my desire to help and support others has brought me to further my education by completing a Bachelor of Arts (Honours), specialized in Human Relation and Spirituality. After graduating, my inspiration for this work lead me to further my pursuit by completing a Master’s degree in Counselling, Psychotherapy and Spirituality, with a specialization in couple and family therapy.
In parallel to my clinical experience and my education,
I have completed significant additional clinical training:
-
Self-in-Relationship Psychotherapy (SIRP): Institute for Self-in Relationship Psychotherapy
-
Intensive Sex Therapy Training Program: University of Guelph
-
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT): International Centre for Excellence in Emotionally Focused Therapy.
-
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT): Joy Health and Research Centre.
-
Acupuncture Detox: National Acupuncture Detoxification Association.
-
SMART Recovery Facilitator
Other workshops and training recently completed: Mindfulness, Emotional Focused Therapy (EFT), Solution-Focused Therapy, Harm reduction, Withdrawal Management with a Concurrent Disorder Perspective, Nonviolent Crisis Intervention Training (NCI), Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR), Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training (ASIST), Adolescent Suicide Prevention and Intervention.
I have always placed a strong importance on continuous training in different therapeutic modalities as it allows me to have a therapeutic flexibility to implement treatment plans that are specifically tailored to you.

As a therapist who specializes in addiction, my priority is to assess
