There have been a few stops along the way in my career journey, where finding connection (both with myself and with others) has always been at the forefront. I have worked in the creative and technology industries, as well as in art education. These experiences have woven together in a rich and unexpected way, and have led me to offering art therapy as a way for clients to work through their own thoughts and feelings.
I have several years experience working specifically with a diverse population of adolescents with varying support needs in an education setting, with an emphasis on art education and well-being. I have also had the privilege to work as a Family Therapist with Sources BC.
