I get to know my clients as a whole persons! I work with clients who have experienced or are supporting those (like parents and caregivers) who have experienced trauma. I draw from my experience, my training and most importantly, my client(s), to come up with a treatment plan at the start of our work together that meets your needs and respects your unique presentation and preferences.

I offer compassionate and neuro-affirming assessments for autism for children and adults, and psychoeducational assessments. In therapy, I use Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help identify negative underlying thoughts that are impacting how you feel, and we examine what changes in behaviour could help, and EMDR therapy can be very effective to help you work through traumatic experiences.
