Hi, I’m Whitney

As a Registered Psychotherapist and Addiction Counsellor, my goal is to provide a safe space for you to be treated with respect and receive a non-judgmental approach that is trauma-informed and solution-focused. My clinical approach is an integrated form of therapy, drawing from numerous evidence-based modalities to support my clients.

In addition to working in private practice, my work experience includes 15 years in addiction and mental health settings, hospital-based treatment, school-based programs, and inpatient/outpatient addiction treatment for adults and youth. I am currently employed at The Royal Ottawa Mental Health Centre in the Substance Use and Concurrent Disorders Program.

I actively participate in professional development opportunities and I am a firm believer in the importance expanding my knowledge and honing my skills through ongoing education, training, and clinical supervision.

-Whitney
