My social work journey started from a young age, and I have worked very hard to continue to grow my educational and professional background in the hopes of being fully equipped to help those in need of assistance, counselling, and support in our community.

I have a background in crisis counselling and have experience working with individuals who have been impacted by crime or tragic circumstance (including domestic violence, addictions, and mental health). My passion lies in art and play therapy; learning how to express big emotions and feelings through safely moving our bodies and allowing creativity.

My overall goal is creating a safe space, where you can be heard, understood, and believed. I am here to listen, support, encourage, and provide guidance. Everyone is always the hero of their own stories, and I would like to help you find the strength within yourself.

I feel privileged to have spent the past two decades working with children and youth in different capacities.

I value connections with individuals and am dedicated to building understanding beyond the challenging behaviours we may exhibit.

I am passionate in supporting individuals to tap into their own resources, to find the strength in their voice, and to take self-responsibility in living a more full and authentic life.

Hi, I’m Adrienne and I am currently a student working towards my Master of Social Work degree through Wilfrid Laurier University. I’ve been working with children and youth in therapeutic environments for nearly ten years and I have decided recently to pursue my MSW so I can expand my scope of practice.

I believe in making space for youth that is supportive and non-judgemental so they can feel safe expressing and exploring their feelings and experiences. I aim to support youth as they build upon their self-esteem, find their resilience, and develop skills to thrive outside of the office space. My goal is to work towards understanding each person’s unique circumstances, needs, and strengths.

When I’m not working, there is a good chance you can find me exploring outside with my family, watching hockey, or playing boardgames.
