Mindful Nurse
Gardener Inc.

Over my career, I have worked and trained in three provinces and across multiple health authorities, gaining firsthand insight into how healthcare and workplace environments can both nurture and harm. Toxic workplaces, excessive workloads, and lack of trauma-informed support contribute to rising rates of burnout, moral distress/injury, chronic, traumatic stress, and psychological injuries—not only among nurses but across our communities.

 

My life’s work is guided by the principle: we transform through connection. Whether through psychotherapy, trauma-sensitive mindfulness practices, walks in the nature, Reiki, gardening, advocacy, workshops, peer circles, or retreats; my goal is to create spaces where people feel safe to be seen, grow, feel, and reclaim the parts of themselves trauma may have buried. To support the change I wanted to see in the world below are a few of the projects I have lead and created:​​

 

It is time for change—in how we care for ourselves, for one another, and for the systems we work within. Because supporting the resilience of caregivers, those around us and those impacted by trauma is where community healing begins.
