You might be a parent watching your child struggle at school and not knowing how to help. You might be managing your own ADHD diagnosis later in life, or trying to hold everything together while caring for your kids and your aging parents at the same time. Maybe it is anxiety, depression, or just the quiet exhaustion of feeling like too much is always on your plate. Whatever brought you here, you do not have to figure it out alone. I work with children, teens, and adults who are ready to understand themselves better and build something that actually lasts.
As both a former K-6 teacher and ADHD specialist, I bring something most therapists cannot: I understand what is happening in the classroom and in the home. I work with children, parents, teens, and adults on anxiety, depression, ADHD, perimenopause, school challenges, and life transitions using evidence-based, compassionate care tailored to you.
I became a therapist after experiencing the impact of counselling in my own life. Therapy helped me work through a later diagnosed ADHD diagnosis, anxiety and depression, understand my emotions, and build lasting inner strength. That transformation encouraged me to support others in creating change in their own personal journeys.
