Cammi is a Psychotherapist and Art Therapist working in Canada.
Cammi works as a registered art therapist and psychotherapist with a passion for art, fairy tales, and dreams. She has a masters degree in Counseling Psychology-Art Therapy from Adler university and is certified through the Canadian Counseling and Psychotherapy Association and the British Columbia Art Therapy association. Cammi has been working in the mental health field for the past ten years and has found that when working with dreams, fairy tales, and art individuals are able to creatively connect with themselves in ways that are vulnerable, healing, and deeply transformative. Cammi specializes in working with adults who connect with the label of ADHD/VAST and also has her own lived experience of ADHD/VAST.
Cammi began her career in the unceded traditional territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations, (also referred to as Vancouver), and has since moved back to Amiskwacîwâskahikan (also referred to as Edmonton) located on Treaty 6 territory, where she meets with clients online and in person from all over Canada. In addition to individual client work, Cammi offers workshops, lectures, and sits on the board of the ADHD Association of Greater Edmonton (AAGE).
In her spare time Cammi enjoys reading (mainly philosophy, psychology and fantasy), creating art, playing the occasional videogame (mostly Undertale or Stardew ), playing table top games (like DnD!), and spending time in nature.

Cammi is a Psychotherapist and Art Therapist working in Canada.
Cammi began her career in so-called “Vancouver” (the unceded traditional territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations), and has since moved back to so-called “Edmonton” (Amiskwacîwâskahikan, located on Treaty 6 territory) where she meets with clients online.
Cammi’s desire is to help others recognize and heal their conscious and unconscious wounds, and to find meaning in what can often feel like a meaningless world.
In addition to her work as a therapist, Cammi enjoyed creating art and has recently delved into the world of writing and illustrating children’s books. Cammi’s work is most influenced by Carl G. Jung, Thomas Moore, Daryl Sharp, and James Hollis.
“Dream exploration and connection are important elements of my therapeutic practice, both with clients and with myself. I discovered the power of dream exploration through my own experience with Jungian analysis. I knew that dream exploration and depth work were important from my own experience, and I wanted to find a way to make that journey more accessible.
Through my education and experience with Art Therapy I realized that art, in all its forms, is what helps make the journey more accessible. Through verbal discussion, dream exploration, and art-making I am able to help clients connect to themselves, to others, and to their world in a way that fosters curiosity and self-empowerment.
I am a Certified Psychotherapist and Counsellor with the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association, A Gottman Level-2 Trained Couples Therapist, and a Registered Art Therapist with the British Columbia Art Therapy Association.
I believe it is my calling to respectfully hold the stories of clients and to help them connect with themselves on a deeper and more creative level in order to live a more meaningful and joyful life.”
