Meet the Team

I am fortunate to have completed a Master's degree in Social Work and a Doctorate in Psychology. I help children, youth and families who want to feel satisfied within their daily lives.

I have been honoured with the privilege of walking along with individuals, couples, children, and families in their healing journeys.

I am a licensed psychotherapist (with the Canadian Counselors and Psychotherapist). I have been studying psychology and philosophy for over thirty years now.

I am an Occupational Therapist (C.O.T.M.). I am a member of the College of Occupational Therapists of Manitoba.

I began my journey with Oak Tree Therapy in July of 2020. I have 6 years of experience in providing administrative and management support to businesses.

I believe that both positive and negative childhood experiences help to shape an individuals’ perspective of the world around them including current feelings, behaviours, and thought processes.

Human connection is the utmost foundation of the therapy process! I strive to provide a safe and non-judgmental space, and would be more than honored to work with you alongside your journey!

I'm currently an intake specialist at Oak Tree Therapy, where I strive to provide warm and compassionate support from a trauma-informed perspective.

I find such joy in being invited into a child’s world of play, by creating a nurturing healing space where children and families can grow together.

I use a holistic, anti-oppressive, decolonizing, trauma-informed approach to practice, and tailor my style to meet the unique needs and preferences of each person that allows me to join them in their healing.

I have been in social services and social justice work for 23 years: my experiences have allowed me to walk beside children, parents, and families as they navigate their journey.

There are many reasons people come to therapy such as seeking support while going through a particular hardship, or desiring to make a change in the patterns one sees playing out in their life or relationship(s).

I believe that every person is the expert of their own life and are capable of crafting a life which aligns with their personal goals and values. It is my goal to assist in helping my clients achieve their vision of wellness by creating a safe space to share their stories.

Dedicated social worker, with a passion for empowering individuals and communities to thrive.

I am truly passionate about connecting with people and holding a safe space. I will always meet you where you are, in each moment, with kindness and grace.

As an intake specialist, my role is to be the face of Oak Tree Therapy, as I am one of the first people you will encounter here! I aim to provide you with a safe, non-judgemental, and compassionate first impression which will continue through your journey with us.

I offer parent-child interaction play therapy, dyadic work using A.E.D.P., Narrative, and Compassionate Focused Therapy, trauma and memory reprocessing using M-CBT, E.M.D.R., A.R.T., and I.T.A.T.M. I am also trained as a Voice of the Child Reporter. My hope and goal for you is that I might also create a space that respects your capacity to heal, grow, trust, and learn to validate yourself within the presence of little old me.

I recognize the courage and vulnerability it takes to seek support. That's why I'm here to provide you with a compassionate space when you need it most. Your decision to reach out is a brave one, and I'm here to support you every step of the way.

I work with clients facing a variety of concerns, from everyday stress and anxiety to loss and grief, and the many things in between. I want to emphasize that I believe no concern is too small; if it is bothering you, I want to hear about it.

I offer support to those living with depression, anxiety, grief/loss, suicidality, ADHD and relationship issues. Life brings on many challenges and one can only do so much alone and that is why I am here to be your guide and support person. I look forward to walking along side you in your healing journey.

I have helped treat those living with depression, anxiety, PTSD and those feeling overwhelmed by their emotions and relationship difficulties. I use an approach that is unique to you and your specific needs and preferences. I demonstrate this by believing and treating you as the expert of your experiences and walking alongside you in your healing journey.

I enjoy interacting with clients supporting them with a friendly smile as I meet and greet them.

If you are reading this, you have already taken a big step! I would be honoured to join you in your healing journey today!

Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, stress, or navigating life transitions, I am here to walk alongside you.

I believe everyone has the proper tools in their belt to overcome an obstacle, it’s just about learning how to effectively use those tools.

I am committed to developing a genuine and trusting relationship with you. My goal is to provide a safe and comfortable environment where you can feel open to sharing anything. You deserve to feel seen and heard and know you are not alone. Your well-being is my priority.

I believe in tailoring my approach to meet the unique needs of each client, recognizing that everyone’s experience is different.

My work as a student centers on the belief that our relationships profoundly influence our behaviours and perceptions of the world around us. In therapy, I aim to create a safe space where we can explore your experiences with curiosity, examining how they shape your sense of self and influence your interactions with others.Together, we can explore the complex interplay between your past and present, enriching your understanding of yourself and how you engage with others.

I thrive on creating a welcoming environment and ensuring smooth daily operations.

I take pride in being the go-to person for client support and enjoy creating an upbeat and welcoming environment.

I’m grateful to be part of an organization that prioritizes care and comfort, and I look forward to making each visitor’s experience a memorable one.
