Are you looking for compassionate, effective support for your child, teen, or yourself? I am a Registered Psychologist who is dedicated to helping children, teens, and parents feel more connected, confident, and understood. I have a warm, collaborative approach grounded in attachment and developmental science, and use both play and talk-based approaches. I believe that behaviour is a form of communication and work closely with families to understand the underlying needs driving their child’s difficulties. I offer both counselling and formal assessment so that children and families can move forward with clarity and confidence.
I specialize in working with children, teens, and families navigating emotional regulation difficulties, trauma, anxiety, depression, behavioural challenges, and neurodevelopmental differences. In addition to counselling and play-based therapy, I am also skilled in administering psychological and psychoeducational assessments.
Reaching out for help as a parent, child, or family can take a tremendous amount of courage. Please know that when you do, you will be met with nothing but warmth and understanding. I look forward to becoming a part of your journey!

I have advanced training in the integration of EMDR and play therapy, so my work with children to address difficulties related to trauma and anxiety will often incorporate play and more directive trauma processing. I tend to collaborate closely with parents to make sure that we have a clear direction and can move forward in a way that helps their child and family get back to healthy functioning.

In counselling, I integrate play therapy, EMDR, TF-CBT, and ACT to help children process big emotions, build coping skills, and strengthen relationships. Throughout this process, I partner closely with parents, offering practical strategies and insight to support growth at home and school. In addition to therapy, I provide comprehensive psychoeducational and diagnostic assessments.
