Extensive experience and expertise in working with adults, adolescents, children and families allows me to appreciate each individual's concerns, collaboratively work out therapeutic goals so that the person can lead a more fulfilling life.
Within a Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness and Systemic framework, clients engage in a collaborative assessment in order to map out the story of their concerns and define individually-tailored therapy goals.

Parenting a child with a history of trauma, loss or special need?
Through a variety of therapeutic modalities we will work together to address mental health issues, grief, identity and more. I am also an Adoption Competent Therapist and work to normalize experiences, rather than pathologize them. I can assist in navigating complex relationships found in Openness, Search and Reconnection, Blocked Trust and Blocked Care.

I work with neurodiverse children and adults needing support with anxiety, emotional expression, life transitions, ADHD, autism and self esteem.
Every therapeutic journey is unique. While many clients choose talk therapy, I also offer the option of integrating music and creative arts when they can support your goals. Music can help express what feels difficult to put into words, deepen emotional processing, foster clarity, support nervous system regulation and cultivate resilience and presence.

I'm a Registered Psychotherapist with over 15 years of experience, working in English and Arabic with children, teens, and adults — on ADHD and behaviour with the younger ones, and anxiety, self-esteem, and life stress with older kids and adults.
My background is behavioural, so we don't just talk about the problem — we look at what sets it off and build practical changes for home and school. With kids I use PlayTherapy, CBT and applied behaviour analysis (ABA), and I bring parents in, because much of the progress happens between sessions. Everything is shaped around your child, not a fixed template.
