Hi everyone! I have been on Vancouver Island for over 20 years. Most of my time was spent in the Cowichan Valley, followed by 2 years on the North Island. I am now settled in Campbell River. I currently work part time for a non-profit agency and also have a private practice. I have had the privilege of spending much of my time serving in First Nations communities, mostly with Cowichan Tribes.
My work has been with children and youth who have experienced trauma, as well as women and families. I use sandtray and play therapy, and come from a family systems perspective. SE informs all the work I do, and refining these skills is the most exciting ongoing learning I have experienced.
I love hiking, being at the ocean, and hanging out with family and friends. Until moving away from Cowichan, I also went horseback riding regularly.
This is the second training I will be assisting in. I am really looking forward to meeting you all – hopefully in person at some point – as you start your SE journey!
