I teach a variety of students, from elementary school through high-school. I use my clinical knowledge and experience to resolve classroom issues, de-escalate challenging situations, and foster a positive learning environment for everyone. I like to connect with students on a personal level to encourage them, set boundaries without using shame, and to help them maximize their strengths while growing in necessary areas.

I run mental health workshops to equip frontline workers to succeed professionally, and thrive personally. We teach a general understanding of what mental illness is, practical suicide intervention strategies, and how professionals can recover from traumatic events and live healthy, full lives.

I supervise counselling students as they learn to counsel in the skills lab. My job is to coach them step by step and help them prepare for their internships and future clinical work.
