Welcome! Reaching out for help is the first step in creating change, and I am honored to share that experience with you, your child, or your family. I am passionate about supporting children, teens, and adults of all abilities, including those diagnosed with Autism, ADHD, or those experiencing varying behavioural challenges. I enjoy helping families navigate challenges they may be experiencing, while also exploring each child and family’s potential and future possibilities. Being a mother of neurodiverse children has provided me with a unique perspective, and I'm familiar with the journey before and after receiving a new diagnosis.
I specialize in working with children, adolescents, and parents, and am currently in the process of becoming certified with the Canadian Association of Play Therapy. I believe children express and process their emotions through play and exploration. Sometimes, words must be expressed differently, using art, games, dress-up, and sand tray therapy.
I come from an attachment-based lens and use a Person-Centered approach. I enjoy integrating modalities such as EMDR, Internal Family Systems, CBT, Safe and Sound Protocol, Emotion Focused Therapy, and play-based techniques. I am booking sessions for ages 3+ (children, teens, and adults) and am available at offices located in Cochrane and Langdon, AB.

I work with children and teens struggling with behavioural concerns, anxiety, and trauma-related issues. I also work with parents and adults to support them in uncovering their deep-rooted concerns that may affect their parenting styles and their mental health. Together, we will devise a treatment plan and determine techniques to take home and apply to foster personal and familial relationships.

I use a Person-Centered approach to get to know you and your goals. Based on your needs, I often integrate Play-Based Therapy (for children and youth), EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), CBT, Safe and Sound Protocol, and Emotion Focused Therapy. For those seeking trauma therapy, I tend to use a combination of EMDR and IFS as I find it is a gentle approach to exploring one's past.
