Living in a rural community, I have learned to be adaptive in my approach to psychotherapy. I work with couples and individuals, varying in age from 12 onward, across many domains. My special interests lean toward working with clients who are neurodiverse, and those who struggle in their relationship with food and body, anxiety and self-esteem. I don't think of 'wellness' as prescriptive- it must be a feeling of security and peace that we develop and hold within ourselves. That's why my philosophy of care includes setting a pace that fits your needs and helping you develop your own feelings of empowerment and self-growth.

I am deeply grateful to support people as they navigate life and learn to care for themselves and others in sustainable ways. I work with individuals, 12+, focusing on life transitions, grief, processing experiences of trauma, self-esteem, strengthening emotional regulation, interpersonal and family dynamics, and body liberation. I welcome people from a wide range of backgrounds and identities, and I honour intersectionality and the complexity of each person’s lived experience.

Do you feel like you're constantly trying to escape your anxiety, just to find it around every corner? Anxiety is tricky this way. We all need some level of anxiety to help us protect ourselves from the truly scary things out there, but it can be exhausting to have never-ending worry about things that maybe aren't so bad, especially when it starts getting in the way of feeling good and doing the things you want to be doing. If this sounds like what you go through, you are probably looking for a way to harness your anxiety, so you can get back to feeling like you again.

FAQ - Teenage and Adolescent Therapists
What does therapy for teenagers look like?
When a therapist works with a teenager, the pair will talk about what the teen is struggling with and explore solutions, which may involve interpersonal skills, coping strategies, medication, or lifestyle changes related to sleep, diet, and exercise. Different therapists employ different modalities, but most involve a combination of conversation and skill building.

How long does therapy for teenagers generally take to work?
There’s variability in teenagers’ experiences and challenges; some may begin to improve from therapy within a few weeks while others may take several months or longer. Teens can discuss their progress with their therapist periodically to assess how they’re improving and any changes to the treatment plan that could potentially accelerate that progress.

How do you encourage a teenager to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express your concern and love while framing therapy as an opportunity to explore a tool that could help improve their life; just like they practice baseball or dance, now they can practice their emotional skills. Give your teen control over the process where you can—maybe by weighing in on choice of therapist and signaling that therapy involves confidentiality, so a parent need not know all that is discussed in sessions.

How do you prepare teens for therapy?
You can prepare your teenager for therapy by describing what the process will look like and setting expectations for timeline, if requested. You can explain that the first session may begin with an assessment phase, that they can describe their experiences but that the therapist will ask questions too, and that it may take time to feel comfortable opening up. Ask how they’re feeling about the process and answer any questions calmly and supportively.
