About My Clients

I have 14 years experience working with severely mentally ill adolescents and adults, mainly suffering from Schizophrenia and Bi-polar Disorder. I also have 10 years experience working with children and adolescents providing home-based services.

My Background and Approach

Trust is an important component of a successful therapeutic relationship. By providing a safe and calm environment I am able to assist clients and their families to gain insight and appropriate coping skills and strategies for a successful life. I utilize various models of therapy, which may include CBT, Solution Based Therapy, Mindfulness and Play Therapy to achieve success together.
