About Our Story at Driftwood Counselling

In my practice, I focus on treating people with respect and meeting them where they are at using a flexible, multi-faceted approach.  I work with people of all ages via telehealth and in-person individual sessions.

I work with people who have obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and obsessive-compulsive related conditions, people with Tourette syndrome, and those with body-focused repetitive behaviours (BFRBs) such as skin picking and hair pulling. 

I am a CTSA-Certified Clinician in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) for OCD. A graduate of TLC’s Virtual Professional Training Institute and use Comprehensive Behavioral (ComB) Treatment with those with BFRBs. 

I have completed training in sand tray therapy which is a combination of play therapy and art therapy.  Additionally, I have completed training in DBT, CBT, and ACT. 

I am a professional member of the International OCD Foundation and Ontario Associate of Social Workers.  I am registered with the Ontario College of Social Workers.
