Children and teens sometimes carry anxiety, trauma, or dissociation in ways that are difficult to put into words. Parents may notice mood changes, withdrawal, irritability, school challenges, or emotional overwhelm and feel unsure what is happening beneath the surface. You may have tried traditional talk therapy and felt that something deeper still needs attention. You are looking for specialized trauma therapy for your child or teen that honours the nervous system, supports emotional regulation, and creates a safe, developmentally attuned path toward steadiness and healing.
I am a Registered Social Worker with over 28 years of hospital outpatient mental health experience. I specialize in trauma therapy for children and adolescents, integrating Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), somatic approaches, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and play-based interventions to support nervous system regulation and healing.
Reaching out for support for your child can feel overwhelming, especially when you’ve already tried other approaches. Therapy can be a steady, compassionate space to better understand what your child is experiencing and to move forward with greater clarity and confidence. I offer a complimentary consultation to explore whether this feels like the right fit.

I work with children and teens experiencing trauma, dissociation, anxiety disorders, self-harm concerns, and emotional regulation difficulties. In our early sessions, we focus on safety, understanding trauma responses, and identifying meaningful goals. Treatment may include somatic and trauma-focused approaches to support nervous system regulation and gradual integration of difficult experiences.
