I will work to create a safe and trusting experience where you can explore emotions that may arise in your parenting, gain insight into what triggers may get activated in you and new strategies to help increase your confidence in supporting your children through difficult behaviours, emotions and adversity.
Parenting requires so much from us and it can bring up many emotions when our children struggle. I specialize in parent counselling & coaching. I support and empower parents to feel more confident, attuned and skilled in their parenting journey. Parent counselling can help with issues such as anxiety, temper tantrums, aggression, defiance, sibling issues, adoption, conflict, power struggles and many more issues. We will work together to understand your child's emotional world, how to support your child in successfully regulating their emotions, enhance your connection with your child and implement evidence based strategies.

I am also SPACE trained (Supportive Parenting for Anxious Childhood Emotions).
At times anxiety, depression and/or trauma may impede an individual's natural ability to cope. I believe when a safe and supportive environment is created, individuals may openly explore their struggles and find healthier ways of coping.

For the past 10 years, I have specialized in supporting sexual and gender diverse children, youth, and families.

I engage collaboratively with parents/caregivers and aim to develop skills to better support the areas of concern with children and teens.
Internalizing and understanding our lived experiences is a personal process and we all have found ways to manage the less than ideal aspects of life. Sometimes those 'ways' become less effective, for a plethora of reasons. Counselling can offer the space and support to tease this out. Exploring contributing factors related to the impacts of life events often helps facilitate the transition from self judgement to self compassion and acceptance. I have worked extensively with individuals and couples who are faced with a wide variety of circumstances and have chosen to reach out, in order to support their healing and change process.

My goal is to help every client thrive emotionally, psychologically, and intellectually. I am equally as interested to hear a client’s story of trauma, loss, regret, loneliness, and difficult family dynamics, as I am to listen about times filled with purpose, hope, and happiness. I pay close attention to what is said, in addition to what is left unsaid, to uncover patterns of core beliefs.

Whether it is from parenting, work, school, life, or a combination of them all, I know how hard it can be when things just feel like they keep piling up with no end in sight.

Life is challenging and difficult at times. It can create distress that affects every part of who we are: our thoughts, feelings, physical well-being and spirit, upsetting our ability to be effective with ourselves, others and manage the demands of our daily life. When we decide to reach out for help, we are acting courageously. Particularly if we do not have the energy or believe that things can be better. I am passionate about helping people. I work to understand the world from your point of view and help you gain a sense of balance and confidence to make positive changes in your life.

Every comprehensive review of therapy with children shows that all credible approaches, when performed by a competent mental health clinician, produce almost the same results.

The best child therapists in T5N build great relationships with the child and the parent. They also see the child's strengths and are open to hearing the child's possible solutions to the challenges the child faces. Finally, a good therapist appreciates the child's culture and is sensitive to the values of the child's community.
