As a neurodivergent practitioner, I have personal experience with the myriad of issues that can come from living on the autism spectrum. Whether it's intense emotions, spiritual/death anxiety, social anxiety, picky eating, sensory issues, or identity confusion, we can work through it together. Even if you are not living with a disorder, but still identify with one of these issues, I am happy to support you. :)

TIPES counsellors are working hard to bridge the gap between behavioural and mental health services, and are working from a multi-disciplinary approach with our clients. Our team of social workers has extensive experience working with autistic, neurodiverse individuals, and their families, as well as working on issues related to depression, anxiety, mood, social isolation, sexual and gender identity and more. Many of our clients require support related to goal setting and building skills around executive functioning and motivation. We offer parent and couples counselling. Clients can also be seen by our Supervising Psychologist.

IN-PERSON and ONLINE sessions are now available in Ontario and Western Quebec. Your decision to start therapy is essential for personal understanding, healing, and growth.

My first objective is to provide a warm, safe, non-judgmental environment for your therapeutic experience. My second objective is to provide you with the most up-to-date, evidence-based therapeutic approaches that get actual results in the least amount of time.
