About Nicole

Pronouns: She/Her

I have a focus on working with adolescents and adults through an anti-oppressive and trauma informed lens. I use a strengths based and a client centred approach. I have worked with children, adolescences, and families in the Children and Mental Health fields, as well as adults and supported folks over 16 who have experienced trauma in a Sexual Assault and Domestic Violcene Center. I have training in Narrative, EMDR, Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Emotion Focused Family Therapy (EFFT), Solution Focused Therapy and Mindfulness.

I graduated from University of Toronto for my Masters in Social Work and Toronto Metropolitan University for my Bachelors of Social Work. I completed my 200hr Yoga Teacher Training in Nepal in 2016 and graduated from the Trauma-Centre Trauma Sensitive Yoga (TCTSY) 300hr program in March 2020.

I have been teaching yoga for over 3 years to children, youth, families, adults and seniors in various settings such as community centres, high schools, health centres and community groups. I always had an interest in the processing of trauma and the involvement of the body in this process. The TCTSY program was the perfect way for me to bring together my love of yoga and my Social Work background. I have been practicing yoga for over 10 years and was drawn to the connection with my body.
