Workshop Facilitation
I believe in the power of social change through education
both individually and collectively,
to disrupt systems of harm and re-align our society towards
the well being and vitality of all.
​
​
I thrive in providing facilitation alongside my clinical practice.
With over 20 years in education and social change initiatives,
formal training in a B.Ed and MSW,
and a commitment to lifelong personal and professional growth,
building my own practice where I can provide both has been enriching for me.
​
​
Currently, I'm focusing on providing workshops and groups on
Trauma Informed Care and Relational Capacity Building content.
​
​
