Clinical Social Workers are primarily focused on treating mental health issues, and are considered a specialty of general social work practice. Psychotherapy is a general term. As such psychologists, social workers, addictions counsellors, occupational therapists, etc. may all utilize the term psychotherapy to describe some or all of what they do. Psychological approaches may be: educational; behavioral; involve different types of modalities such as talk, music, art, play, dance; or more mindfulness styles such as meditation or yoga. There are many psycho-therapeutic styles such as humanist, rogerian, structural, solution focused, etc. Regardless of the approach used, psychotherapy refers to non-medical interventions that aim to change the way a person thinks, feels, or behaves.

She is a CACBT Certified Therapist, CTSA Certified Prolonged Exposure Therapist, CPT Provider Status Therapist and working towards EMDR Certification with EMDRIA.
