As a Registered Social Worker, Psychotherapist, and Child & Youth Care Practitioner at Cognitive Resilience Counselling Clinic, I support children, youth, young adults, and some adults, with particular experience working with neurodivergent, disabled, LGBTQIA+, and chronically ill individuals. My approach is collaborative, affirming, and grounded in understanding each person's unique experiences. Rather than focusing on fixing who you are, therapy is a space to explore challenges, understand patterns, and honour your adaptations. I strive to create a compassionate environment where you feel seen, heard, and understood.
At Cognitive Resilience Counselling Clinic, I support clients navigating identity, self-esteem, burnout, anxiety, depression, stress, executive dysfunction, rejection sensitivity, and relationship challenges. Together, we explore recurring patterns, deepen self-understanding, and work toward meaningful, sustainable change.
Life can feel messy, overwhelming, or uncertain at times. You deserve a space where your experiences are met with care, curiosity, and respect. If you feel we may be a good fit, I welcome you to reach out. We can start with a complimentary 15-minute video consultation—no expectations, just a chance to connect.
