Social Work
I am a Registered Social Worker with experience supporting individuals and families in Saskatchewan. My private practice is rooted in helping fathers navigate the emotional terrain of pregnancy, birth, parenting, grief, and change. Whether you’re preparing to become a dad, adjusting to life after baby, or coping with relationship strain or loss, you’re not alone. I offer a calm, non-judgmental space to explore big feelings, strengthen communication, and reconnect with what matters most. Together, we’ll work toward building resilience, clarity, and connection — both within yourself and in your relationships. My approach is grounded, compassionate, and practical. I draw from evidence-based therapies like CBT, Solution-Focused Therapy and Motivational Interviewing. Together, we’ll explore what matters most to you, uncover your strengths, and find clear, workable steps toward change. For those who connect with the outdoors, I also offer nature-based sessions — because sometimes movement, fresh air, and space to breathe works better than staring at each other in an office. I deeply value and respect the diversity of cultures, traditions, and ways of knowing that shape how people make meaning. I welcome all identities and family constellations, and I strive to practice with cultural humility and curiosity. I believe healing can take root in many forms — in conversation, in reflection, in community, and in nature. You don’t need to have it all figured out to begin. If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just unsure where to start, we can take it one step at a time. You bring the questions — we’ll explore the answers together.
