I acknowledge that I live and practice on the traditional lands of the Anishinaabek, Haudenosaunee, Lunaapeewak (Delaware), and Attawandaron peoples, in what is now known as Strathroy, Ontario. This area is covered by Treaties 2 and 21 and the Dish with One Spoon Wampum Belt Covenant.

In offering counselling, social work, and psychotherapy across Ontario, I honour the enduring presence and knowledge of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis peoples across the province.

I hold this acknowledgment as part of an ongoing commitment to cultural humility, trauma-informed care, and the decolonization of mental health practice. I strive to listen, learn, and support healing in ways that respect Indigenous sovereignty, stories, and strength.
