My work is shaped by lived experience and years of walking alongside children, youth, families, and animal caregivers.
Clinical Services and Wellness Services are kept distinct so that scope, consent, and expectations remain clear. Each area is described honestly so you can choose what fits your needs.
The Registered Social Service Worker designation is used only in the Clinical Services area. The wellness and animal connection background is used only in the Wellness Services area and is not presented as a clinical credential.
No. Clinical Services and Wellness Services are offered separately. Each has its own purpose, boundaries, consent process, inquiry route, and billing process.
Reach out before you book.
