I support children, teens, and families with a wide range of concerns including anxiety, emotional regulation, anger, social challenges, low self-esteem, family dynamics, and behavioural issues. If you're unsure if I can help, feel free to reach out.
While my primary focus is on children, adolescents, and families, I also work with young adults and parents depending on the need.
Sessions typically run for 50 minutes.
This varies depending on the individual and their goals. Some clients come for just a few sessions, while others engage longer term. We’ll work together to find what’s most helpful for you or your child.
I use a Rogerian eclectic approach, drawing from evidence-based therapies like cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), person-centred therapy, narrative therapy, and play-based techniques, tailored to the needs of each client. I am also accredited in ABA/Progressive ABA, which is extremely benefical for working with young people with neuro diverse needs.
