Podcast Guest
I am excited to share this podcast experience I had with Julia from Fearless Practice where we discussed my journey in becoming a counsellor + qualifying therapist.
It was meaningful to speak to my experience in finding my footing, being true to my values, and establishing a private practice that is built on adaptability, community practice oriented and considering client and practitioner baseline needs.

Luc’s advice for listeners
LGBTQ+ Related Resources & Tools for Humber College Faculty
In the final year of Luc's Community Development Degree, he conducted a mixed methods community research project to determine the ability of faculty at Humber College to ensure the inclusion of gender and sexual diversity within their classroom and curriculum for their students.
This involved stakeholder consultation, a survey of faculty and key informant interviews. Post-research collection, interpreting findings, analysis efforts, report writing, and a dissemination presentation to peers and faculty. To complete the project, the findings and recommendations were presented and discussed with leadership stakeholders.
Panel Event
This panel engaged educators and community leaders to discuss the mental health impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on youth as well as best practices in supporting youth's mental health and empowerment.
