I have worked with children, teens and families for over 15 years in various capacities.
Sometimes life just sucks and that can leave us feeling sad, angry and overwhelmed. Going through difficult experiences often creates negative thoughts and feelings within us. As a result we can sometimes begin to feel helpless, and even hopeless. We feel as though no one truly understands and nothing can make things better. Contacting a counsellor may be the hardest decision you ever have to make, and it's a big step to take. I can assure you that no one ever feels worse after talking to a counsellor, and if you do, you're seeing the wrong one!

I offer a custom approach for each of my clients! I start with understanding where your child is now and the challenges they are facing.

Do you feel exhausted, overwhelmed, frustrated, or lost trying to support your child? Now more than ever, children and youth are feeling anxious, overwhelmed and uncertain about how they are supposed to manage their emotions and find their place in life.

Feeling anxious, depressed, stressed-out, or just plain stuck? It is difficult to imagine any person at any age or stage of life who has not felt the impact of Covid. It has affected us not just as individuals, but also our family relationships, work lives, school lives, social lives and our ability to participate in the community. Social isolation and stress are major factors in depression and anxiety, and the rates of these have skyrocketed since the onset of Covid. Chronic stress, anxiety and trauma can lead to negative ways of coping, hurting ourselves and our relationships. Time to reinvent ourselves, create positive changes?

You’re probably feeling so alone and hopeless right now. The relationship you once looked to for strength and joy is beginning to feel like a source of pain and disconnection. You feel like you have tried everything that you know to make your relationship better. You’ve tried talking about your issues but somehow always end up spiraling into a fight- leaving you feeling frustrated, disconnected and more hurt each time. You worry about where your relationship is headed if something doesn’t change. I want you to know you are in the right place. You can transform your disconnection and negative communication patterns into connection.
