Summary

I am an alumnus of Grant MacEwan University’s Bachelor of Child and Youth Care program and am currently completing my Master’s in Counselling Psychology through the City University of Seattle in Canada, as part of a full-time, in-person cohort. With a strong foundation in child and youth development and a growing focus on individual counselling, I am especially interested in child therapy and supporting young clients through their developmental and emotional challenges. I am seeking an internship that will support my clinical growth and align with my goal of becoming a registered psychologist specializing in work with children, youth, and individual clients.
