I am originally from rural Newfoundland, and grew up in a small community until I left to pursue university. I often attribute my down-to-earth personality, my deep passion to be helpful and empathic, and also my quirky sense of humour to my early years. I have several degrees and designations with my most recent being a Master of Social Work (Wilfrid Laurier University - 2015), which informs my work and allows me to deeply understand and address human dynamics and complex psychosocial factors holistically. I consider myself quite diverse in my therapy background and approach. Over the years I have found myself really adapting my style based on what each unique client brings to their relationship with me. I have worked with youth and families for nearly 15 years – in several different Canadian provinces, and in several cities in Southern Ontario in a clinical capacity. I have worked within inpatient services, outpatient services, as a public servant as well as in private practice. I also have experience providing adult individual therapy as well as couples therapy in the greater Toronto area. My approach is mostly informed using an attachment, trauma-focused lens - looking at client's life experiences that brought them to where they are today. My common practice areas include intergenerational trauma, disordered eating, anxiety, substance abuse, loss and bereavement, familial violence, relationship difficulties and attachment related challenges. I also have a passion for work with the 2SLGBTQIA+ community, and within this my treatment focuses include: gender and sexuality related challenges (including identity discovery, hormonal and transition navigation, and familial education), as well as self-compassion work. I am a member of the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers, as well as a member of the Ontario Association for Social Workers. https://www.redwoodpsychotherapy.com/home daily 1.0 2022-05-31 https://www.redwoodpsychotherapy.com/services daily 0.75 2022-10-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61d2057eec34746b3eecc871/4bb34de0-8c34-45e1-afc9-847740246a62/IMG_0744.JPG Services Tobias Keene, D.D.S. Hailing from Richmond, Virginia, Dr. Tobias Keene brings a bit of unabashed Southern hospitality to all his patients. He moved to Washington, D.C. over thirty years ago as a freshman at Ivy College. Right after graduation, he attended World University’s School of Dentistry. Before opening Keene Dental in 1994, he worked for free clinics and some of the finest practices in the District. He is part of the 123 Dental Association and stays up-to-date on the latest dental discoveries. When not striving to keep his patients happy and healthy, he’s enjoys hiking with his family in Rock Creek Park. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61d2057eec34746b3eecc871/caf6198b-f9c9-4d15-9b31-c1a781cb5af8/IMG_5558.jpg Services Family Therapy How much time do we spend with family - how much energy do we put into being the best version of a family member that we can be? Even still, families experience conflict, difficulty with communication and hardship. Time after time I hear stories from families that they feel judged, cornered, or that they are doing something wrong. Lets work together to figure out next steps in redefining your family system.

They come with so much expectation and adjustments. Sometimes we forget who we are as individuals, and what we bring to the relationships we are involved in. Being vulnerable and honest with your partner is sometimes the first step toward healing.
