Master of Social Work
Wilfrid Laurier University, 2015.
“I approach mental health through a holistic lens, recognizing that emotional wellness cannot be separated from our bodies, relationships, experiences, identities, cultures, communities, and environments. My role is to provide a safe and collaborative therapeutic relationship where your experiences are honoured, your strengths are recognized, and healing can unfold at a pace that respects you.” -Kristen Bird, MSW, RSW
