Perinatal Health Facilitator, B.A. Psych

I have always juggled many passions at once and love to stay busy. I hold a Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology and I am currently pursuing a Bachelor of Social Work from the University of Regina. I have also taken specialized training in perinatal mental health.

I spend my time reading, changing diapers, and exploring the world through the eyes of my children. I am passionate about creating safe, accessible, and supportive spaces for families. Having gone through a heavy perinatal experience myself, I understand, first hand, the value of having a village. I strive to support families in building their village so they can truly immerse themselves in all those magical moments.

I currently live in Regina with my husband and our two children, welcomed in 2021 and 2024.

Perinatal Health Coordinator BSW, Certified Birth & Reproductive Trauma Specialist (CC-BRT)

I recently completed my Bachelor of Social Work degree from the U of R, with my studies focusing on mental health and addictions; childhood development; grief and loss; and biopsychosocial and community perspectives to health care. I have also taken specialized training in perinatal mental health and birth and reproductive trauma.

I am passionate about perinatal mental health care in Saskatchewan because I lived through prenatal anxiety and postpartum depression after the birth of my son in 2017. It was an incredibly isolating experience to feel alone in my struggles, and I experienced first-hand how complex (and sometimes frustrating!) navigating public mental health systems could be. I also understand the mental load that comes with being a new parent, as well as the stigma that comes with experiencing a perinatal mood disorder. Through my own experiences and professional training, my hope is to offer social support in a judgment-free space, help carry the mental load of motherhood, and provide community resources and connections so other parents don’t feel like they have to walk this path alone.

I currently live in Regina with my husband and our two children, welcomed in 2015 and 2017.
