“Nothing is impossible, the word itself says ‘I’m possible’ “ –Audrey Hepburn-
All is possible, you are worth it! Reaching out is the first step. I provide a safe, non-judgmental, supportive space to explore, discuss, and work together towards finding solutions.
Whether you wish to seek assistance for stress, life transitions/decisions, burnout, self-esteem, or support, this is where you can start.
I have over 15 years experience as a social worker in health and social services with various populations (individuals, families, elderly, expecting and new mothers). I provide psychosocial assessments in view of homologating a mandate or instituting protective measures (tutorship) – this process can be complex and daunting, let me be there to help navigate.
Additionally, I can provide family mediation – I strive on conflict resolution and finding solutions that are equitable for all. Wherever you are at, let’s work together to find solutions and make what seems impossible, possible.
