I am a PEACE counsellor currently offering youth counselling with Cythera Transition House Society. My experience working with women, children, youth, families, and the 2SLGBTQQIA+ community has led to my person-centered and trauma and violence-informed practice. My goal is to create safer and affirming spaces for my clients to facilitate conversations around hope, psycho-education, and growth.
