I am a Family Law Advocate with a Bachelors degree in Psychology and English. I have created and coordinated workshops for addiction and trauma centres, given presentations in front of various group sizes, and I am a little bit of an artist, as a hobby. I have also worked in counselling. I like helping people the best I can and have been working in this field since August 2020.
