I help people (age 12+) to navigate the ups & downs that come with life, including issues related to stress, negative self talk, emotion regulation, self-esteem, and other emotional and/or mental health challenges (including ADHD, self-harm, school avoidance, anxiety, perfectionism, and more). My style supports a gentle, yet active curiousity about the roots of an emotion and/or behaviour, building internal resources, and increasing resiliency. After all, life isn’t always easy and I want people to trust that they have the understanding, capabilities, and skills to get through (and even thrive!), especially when things get rough.

I work with clients who struggle with "regulation difficulties". When your "motor" is running automatically, too fast or too slow, it is very difficult to respond efficiently and thoughtfully. My clients struggle to be present, are unable to respond appropriately in times of stress, and cannot maintain a direction in life. Some of my clients have difficulties such as Complex Trauma, attachment issues, depression, anxiety and ADHD. This can happen to men, women, children and teens. Learning to be regulated can improve one's ability to focus and to learn, to be able to manage one's life and have deep meaningful relationships.

As an ADHD therapist, I provide a safe space for you to look at your struggles from a kinder perspective.
If overwhelm, procrastination, anxiety, poor time management, trouble with focus, and low self-esteem are standard parts of your everyday life, you’ve likely wondered whether you have ADHD. If you haven’t gotten an official diagnosis, perhaps you’ve even accepted these as personality “flaws.” As someone who was diagnosed late in life, I can assure you that you’re not lazy, incapable, or any other hurtful adjective you’ve secretly called yourself. You just haven’t had the support to understand how your brain works.

I love working with children, teens, and adults facing anxiety, depression, low mood, lack of motivation and purpose, complex trauma, abusive relationships, suicide & self harm, as well as ADHD & ASD and personality disorders.
I am so excited you are here! Therapy for me has been a place of safety, growth, and healing, and my passion is to provide the same for you. I believe we are born with an intuitive sense of knowing, and as we grow up, our experiences can either drown out, or confuse our own intuition. My goal is for you to find a place of safety in which you can heal, and gently tune back in to your own voice & intuition to guide you. Your unique experiences and pain deserve to be given attention and care, and through this process we can discover and heal what is hindering you from living your life to the fullest.

ADHD Counsellors
When should I seek treatment for ADHD?
You should seek treatment for ADHD if you consistently have difficulty with attention, hyperactivity, or impulsivity that interferes with your daily life. Symptoms of ADHD include the inability to sustain attention during tasks, difficulty organizing tasks and activities, being easily distracted, frequent fidgeting or squirming, and talking or interrupting excessively. If these symptoms interfere with your career, academics, or relationships—for example, consistently failing to complete professional projects on time—you should seek an evaluation for ADHD.
How does treatment for ADHD work?
Effective treatment for ADHD often consists of medication, behavioral therapy, and lifestyle changes. Stimulant medications such as Adderall and Ritalin work by altering levels of neurotransmitters in the brain; higher levels of dopamine and norepinephrine are known to improve attention and focus. Therapy works by helping people with ADHD understand the condition, discuss their areas of difficulty, and develop behavioral strategies to manage their symptoms. In some cases, modifying one’s diet and exercise can also help improve symptoms.
Are there specific medications for ADHD?
Medications to treat ADHD are generally stimulants, the most common are Adderall and Ritalin. There are two categories of stimulants: Amphetamines include Adderall, Dyanavel, Vyvanse, and Dexedrine, and methylphenidates include Ritalin, Concerta, Daytrana, Focalin, Quillichew, Quillivant, and Metadate. Non-stimulants and antidepressants may be used as an alternative if stimulants aren’t effective or viable for a particular patient.
How long does treatment for ADHD take?
It’s tough to give an exact time frame because everyone varies. In terms of medications, stimulants begin to work very soon after you take them, generally within the hour. It may take time to identify the right medication and dosage, but the medication itself is fast-acting. In terms of therapy, it takes time to develop skills and put them into practice, but you will likely see improvements within a few weeks or months.
