Experience

After I received my license, I worked at The Family Centre for five years. From there, I went to CASA for seven years and dealt with adolescents and their families who experienced complex mental health isssues and multiple situational stressors. I enoyed the team environment and working with psychiatrists, nurses and social workers.
