I create safe, non-judgmental spaces where individuals, young people and new parents can share experiences without fear. My solution-focused approach builds on inherent strengths, helping develop resilience and practical skills for anxiety, depression, academic stress, and life transitions. As a certified sleep consultant, I provide evidence-based guidance for newborn sleep routines and family dynamics. I support new parents through postpartum adjustment and life changes that accompany welcoming a family member.
Young Adult & Adolescent Support - Safe space for teens facing academic pressure, identity formation, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Sleep Consultation - Evidence-based guidance for newborn sleep routines and sleep hygiene. Pre & Postpartum Counselling - Support through pregnancy, postpartum depression/anxiety. Family Counselling - IEP Advocacy.
I'm here to walk alongside you through life's most transformative moments and help you move forward with your goals. Contact me to schedule your complimentary consultation.
