Tyler Colbourne, MSW, RSW

NSCSW Professional Development Consultant (he/they)

Tyler’s practice as a social worker is informed by intersectional identities as a queer, white, mostly able-bodied settler of European descent with lived experience as a mental health service user and as someone who has struggled with addiction. He cares deeply about decolonization and social justice and strives to approach his social work practice through a systems change and relational approach. To learn more about Tyler, you can read his introduction to NSCSW here.
