Health Navigation for Eating Disorders, Mental Health, Paediatric/Adult Oncology, and Palliative Care

The health care system in Ontario can be multifaceted, confusing and overwhelming to people who are experiencing acute, chronic and life-threatening physical and mental illnesses. In my practice, I advocate on behalf of individuals and families, and assist with communications between individuals, health care providers, and, community and hospital-based programs. In my practice, I also personally guide those experiencing challenges directly related to accessing care and treatment.  

I will also provide resources and support in the following areas:

• Achieving employment or education goals during illness

• Improving knowledge and access to key supports

• Expanding your social support network

• Strengthening relationships with health-care providers

• Coping with caregiver stress and fatigue

• Creating self-care techniques

• Finding accessible recreational activities

• Connection to peer support

• Managing activities of daily living (ADL’s)
