Social Worker
Our Social Worker: Carolyne Kostynuk
The practice of social work involves the assessment, diagnosis and treatment of an individual's interpersonal and societal problems. Social Workers provide the psychosocial perspective to complement the medical perspective. The Social Worker can provide individual counselling, linkages to other community resources, education on mental health issues and advocacy.
