Sometimes young people have really big feelings that they simply do not know what to do with. I strongly believe that no one should have to handle big feelings on their own, so this is where I come in. I specialize in child , adolescent, and young adult mental health. I hold a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University and completed my clinical practicum in private practice, working exclusively with youth. My experience includes, but is not limited to, supporting clients with depression, anxiety, anger, perfectionism, OCD, grief, PTSD, ADHD, self-harm, self-confidence, and emotion/behaviour regulation.

I am a registered child psychologist specializing in helping toddlers, young children (up to age 12), and their families with common emotional, cognitive, and behavioural difficulties. I provide assessment and treatment tailored to meet the specific needs of each child and family. Because young children depend so heavily on those around them to address their developmental needs and challenges, I collaborate closely with parents. The parent- child relationship often provides the best opportunity for effective intervention. I provide a respectful and caring environment for parents to understand what their child 's behaviour is communicating, what their child needs, and how they can meet those needs.

I offer FSCD-based rates for families who are eligible for the program so that children and families can access counselling supports on a consistent basis with less financial barriers.
Hey there! My name is Jeremy and I'm glad you're looking into some mental health supports. Whether it is for yourself or for someone you know, looking into different therapy options can be overwhelming with all the options out there, so it can be helpful to have a general idea of what some of your counselling goals might be and go from there. Phone consultations are a great way to see if you might be a good fit with each other as well. I believe in everyone's ability to create changes for themselves and haven't met a client I haven't learned from yet!

I have had a great deal of success working with children and their parents for many childhood issues such as behavior problems, ADHD, anxiety and so on.
My background is in systems theory; the idea that everyone is connected to those around them, with influence between all those people, organizations, and cultures. My approach to therapy is primarily Cognitive Behavioral Therapy but I also see a need for insight into the meaning that we make/have made of things and how that impacts our present. Therapy then, involves opening space for a person to increase awareness of their own process and to see alternative perspectives, thereby empowered to make different life decisions. It is so exciting to see someone realize that they have the power to change their perspective and their life!

While I have experience working with all population groups, my expertise lies in children , family life, and related concerns.
Navigating challenges in family life can cause us to feel disconnected, exhausted, and frustrated among other things. Whether ongoing or temporary, they can erode our ability to tap into the very things that have supported us so far—our strengths, values, and tenacity. I am here to support you and/or your child with many sticky concerns including relational difficulties, shifts in mood (anger, shutting down), parenting challenges, life transitions, grief, anxiety, & depression.

On Sabbatical until Fall 2023. With over 20 years specialization in play therapy, educational and behavioural assessments for children and adolescents, my primary focus is children 's wellbeing. I believe that healing trauma and oppression in children and women requires a strong social justice approach beginning with a clear understanding and documentation of your story. This leads me to conduct comprehensive PTSD assessments. As a social justice advocate, you can be assured you have me in your corner. Limited specialized counselling sessions are available for women and first responders.
