I am delighted to be joining the SE assistant team for the first time and to support the learning and development of this valuable work. As I am a music therapist, it likely comes as no surprise that music is my passion, and my way of understanding and interacting with the world. My clinical work spans a few areas: I teach voice in the music therapy program at Capilano University, I design and facilitate Relaxation & Music Therapy groups for organizations such as the BC Cancer Agency, and I have a private practice. I spent many years working in mental health and addiction and in the Burns, Trauma, and High Acuity unit at Vancouver General Hospital. If I could wave a magic wand you’d find me canoeing on a lake or sitting on a dock in an Adirondack chair, watching the sun go down.
