Hi, my name is Justin. I started in the helping field in 1993 and specialized in mental health (specifically children’s mental health) for ten plus years before becoming a full-time professor. I am an active person who enjoys the outdoors. An overall healthy lifestyle guides me in life. My ten years of volunteer youth coaching in high level athletics also gives me a unique ability to focus part of my practice to working with young athletes. I’ve spent my career as a Social Worker and Professor researching and teaching best practices in the helping field. I have a unique ability to connect with children, youth, young adults, and parents and will provide a trusted and competent approach to help. I am a member of the Ontario Association of Social Workers, and registered with the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers.
