Registered Social Worker
I am a Registered Social Worker who works with neurodivergent individuals in recovery from an Eating Disorder or Disordered Eating. My approach to mental health care is holistic and realistic, taking in all aspects of life to ensure you receive the care you deserve. This is informed by my own experience in mental health care. I am committed to promoting mental wellness and empowering clients to lead fulfilling lives.
My name is Juliana, I use she/her pronouns, I am a queer neurodivergent Woman. I am a Social Worker who utilizes a holistic, gender affirming, body positive, sex positive, anti oppressive, intersectional approach to mental health care. I graduated from the University of Windsor in 2021 with a Bachelors of Social Work and Women’s and Gender Studies and I began my Masters of Social Work in September of 2023.
Some of my counselling approaches include; Strengths based, solutions focused, trauma informed care and DBT informed care. Some of my clinical areas of interest include eating disorder recovery management, neurodivergence, healthy relationships, chosen family, service navigation and disability justice.
My own neurodivergence and experience within Eating Disorder recovery has influenced my passion for higher education and I am passionate about giving back to the community I belong to.
