My Story

I draw on both my education and lived experience as a queer, neurodivergent person in my work. While learning and growing alongside clients, I offer affirming, client-centered care that honours each individual’s identities, perspectives, and experiences. My current passion is running a therapeutic Dungeons and  Dragons group where we explore character traits, identity and secret powers in a  neuroaffirming space. 

About Erin

After a winding path through other fields and a lot of trial and error in my early career, I found myself drawn to work that centers connection and care. Social work became a natural fit, offering the opportunity to build relationships where people feel genuinely seen and supported in their authentic selves.
