Navigating life’s challenges can be daunting, especially when exploring identity or facing family and social pressures. I’m here to provide a safe, affirming space where you can share your story without fear of judgment. I specialize in supporting children, youth, young adults, parents and families. With experience in identity exploration, family dynamics, and building resilience, I work collaboratively to help you thrive. Whether you’re a young person seeking guidance or a parent looking for support, we’ll build on your strengths to foster growth and healing.
My approach is compassionate, client-centered, and rooted in evidence-based practices. I believe in meeting you where you are, offering tailored support to help you navigate your unique journey. Let’s work together to build a space where you feel seen, heard, and valued.
Life’s a bit like assembling IKEA furniture... confusing, overwhelming, and usually missing a piece (or three). You don’t have to tackle it alone! I’m here to help make sense of the chaos, whether you’re stuck with mismatched instructions or just need a hand holding it all together. Let’s sort through the pieces and build something great, one step at a time!

Therapy with me isn't about sitting in silence while I nod silently. Think of it more like creative conversation where we rewrite the script of your story together. Whether we're untangling plotlines through narrative therapy or having a lightbulb moment mid-chat, my approach is dynamic, thoughtful, and yes a bit playful. Let's make healing less daunting and more like a choose-your-own-adventure.
