Hi there, I'm Shamaine!

I became a therapist because I saw how important mental health was and the impact it had on the community I lived in as a child.

My focus

I work from a Solution-Focused model to help you achieve your goals. I look at obstacles through a strength-based lens and build on your existing attributes. I have experience helping children and families while being culturally competent.

My approach

I believe the human mind is like a flower. If you nurture it, it will grow. My therapy model is to look at any obstacles from a strength-based perspective and to build on those attributes. Other evidence-based models I practice are Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and teaching mindfulness.
