“I am grateful for the opportunity to provide mental health care to the clients at our clinic. Collaborative and flexible in my clinical approach, I see my role as a facilitator, working alongside my clients towards self-exploration and change. I am passionate about conscious and healthy living, and frequently draw connections between physical, social, spiritual, and mental health. Outside of work, you can find me cooking, enjoying nature, practicing yoga, or spending time with family.”
