•Parents: If you're raising a child with ADHD or navigating family dynamics that are challenging, I offer a non-judgmental space to explore your experiences, create coping strategies, and foster healthier relationships within your family. •Youth and Young Adults: Whether you’re struggling with academic stress, social anxiety, or emotional regulation, I work with teens and young adults to manage ADHD symptoms, build self-esteem, and develop skills for success. •Adults and Professionals: If you're feeling burned out or overwhelmed by the demands of work and life, I offer strategies to manage stress, reduce anxiety, and regain balance.
I am a former teacher with a deep understanding of the challenges that come with both parenting and living with ADHD—experiences that have shaped my approach to therapy. I have lived experience navigating the unique struggles ADHD presents in both family dynamics and personal life, which allows me to offer empathy, compassion and practical strategies.
It is beautifully brave and vulnerable to seek therapy. I would be honoured to walk with you on this journey of self-discovery and healing at your own pace. I will be a compassionate, collaborative partner and a flashlight as we navigate your path towards greater balance, improved relationships, self-confidence and overall well being.
