Hi, I’m Mimi. I am a Registered Social Worker and clinician who is passionate about supporting children, youth, families, and couples through life’s most challenging moments. With advanced training in Attachment, Regulation and Competency (ARC), a trauma-informed treatment model, and experience using DBT, Motivational Interviewing, Solution Focused Therapy, CBT, and trauma-centred therapy, I strive to offer a compassionate and tailored approach to every client I meet. I am currently completing additional trauma certification to further broaden my expertise.
As a mother of four, I understand firsthand the complexities, joys, and pressures that come with raising a family. These lived experiences shape my work and allow me to connect with clients in a genuine, empathetic, and down-to-earth way. I believe deeply in the inner strength that individuals possess, even during the most difficult seasons of life, and I work collaboratively with clients to help them uncover their own resilience, confidence, and capacity for healing.
I support those experiencing anxiety, mood disorders, and family conflict, and I am especially passionate about helping individuals and families navigate the impact of trauma. My warm, welcoming presence helps clients feel safe, understood, and empowered as they explore their stories. I also speak Spanish and value creating an inclusive, culturally responsive space where clients from diverse backgrounds feel truly seen and supported.
At the heart of my practice is a belief in hope, growth, and the power of a supportive therapeutic relationship, one that helps clients move toward greater clarity, wellness, and emotional balance.
