I began my career as a high school English teacher. After a short time, I realized my true passion of working with individuals to support their mental health and well-being. I transitioned into the role of Guidance Counsellor and eventually Department Head of Guidance, where I worked with adolescents and their families struggling with a range of personal issues including anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts, addiction, abuse, homelessness, gender & sexual identity and bereavement. After more than 20 years of working in the school system, I have expanded my counselling career and transitioned to practicing psychotherapy for individuals and couples.
