Are you struggling with a challenging child, feeling like it's affecting both your day-to-day life and your relationship with them? Do you or your child have a neurodivergent diagnosis? Do you often feel exhausted, overwhelmed, frustrated, or lost? Are you questioning whether your child is getting the support they need? More than ever, parents are feeling uncertain about their children’s behaviours and how to navigate the daily struggles that come with them. Especially when neurodivergence is involved. I believe recognizing when to seek support is one of the most valuable skills a parent can have.

Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or not like yourself?
Anxiety. Low mood. Relationship stress. Grief. A quiet sense that something is “off,” but hard to name.
Many of my clients come in feeling exhausted from overthinking, emotional ups and downs, difficult relationships, or simply trying to keep up with life. Others feel disconnected, lost in transition, or unsure how to move forward.
If you’re wondering whether life could feel lighter, calmer, or more grounded—you’re not alone.
I work with teens (13+), adults, and couples across Calgary who are navigating anxiety, emotional distress, identity challenges, and relationship strain.

The path to healing can be intimidating and searching for help may seem overwhelming. I intend to honour and support the strength and vulnerability shown by those seeking support. It’s essential for me to cultivate culturally sensitive spaces that ensure you feel respected and empowered in your journey. I am passionate about working with the BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, Asian, Latinx and other racialized people or People of the Global Majority), and I am LGBTQIA2S+ affirming. I also employ a collectivist healing approach to support some of my work to create a sense of community and togetherness.

Many of my clients appear capable and responsible on the outside but feel stuck internally. They may struggle with anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, people-pleasing, perfectionism, or persistent self-doubt. Often these patterns stem from earlier experiences that shaped beliefs about self-worth, safety, belonging, or personal agency. In therapy we work to process these experiences, understand the patterns that keep you stuck, and develop healthier ways of relating to yourself, others, and the life you want to build.
