Within over 17 years of expertise in the field of children's mental health, I provide a safe space for children to identify and talk about their feelings, and to learn strategies to regulate and cope with day to day stress. Over the years I have heard - what do children have to stress about and the simple answer is lots! I help families improve communication, work through conflict and grow stronger as a unit. As a mother myself, I understand parenting can be one of the most difficult but rewarding jobs there is - and not everyone has a village to help.
My specialty is children (age 6+), youth, families and parents. I am also a certified trauma and resiliency specialist with advanced evidence based training in a variety of modalities. I believe in the value of early intervention, the importance of feeling safe and comfortable in a counselling setting and the benefit of humour/laughter in therapy.
Reaching out for support for yourself, your child and/or your family can be stressful and create a sense of vulnerability. This is why a therapeutic connection, safety and comfort is so important. If you feel my services would be a good fit, please feel free to reach out for a free consultation.
