Registered Psychotherapist, ExAT, RP
Richmond Hill, ON L4B
Are you a parent of a neurodivergent child (ages 6-12) struggling with social cues or emotional meltdowns? Wish someone who "gets" your child’s unique rhythm? Or perhaps you're an adult feeling burnt out, overthinking, and seeking a creative outlet to express. My ideal clients need a therapist who adapts to them—whether through traditional talk therapy or creative expression, managing ADHD/ASD challenges, anxiety, or caregiver stress. They want to be understood in their own language and find tools to regulate emotions, build confidence, and navigate life with more ease and resilience.

You love your child more than anything, but some days, it feels like nothing you do is enough. The meltdowns come out of nowhere, simple transitions turn into full-blown battles, and routines that seem easy for other families feel impossible in your home. Teachers don’t always understand, family members offer unsolicited advice that doesn’t help, and you're left constantly advocating, explaining, and holding everything together even when you're running on empty. Maybe you feel like you’re failing your child because you don’t have the answers.

How effective is treatment for learning disabilities?
When initiated early and tailored to a child’s specific needs, learning disability treatment can be quite effective at helping a child cope with their disability, though its exact efficacy may depend on the severity of symptoms and whether comorbid disorders exist. Less is known about treatment initiated in adulthood, but it is certainly possible that an adult with a learning disability will see some improvement—or at the very least, identify workarounds and accommodations that could make symptoms less burdensome in day-to-day life.
When should someone seek treatment for learning disabilities?
It’s best to seek treatment as early as possible. Because learning disabilities often go unnoticed until a child starts school, or even until they’re a few years along, regular check-ins with teachers and doctors can help parents determine whether children are meeting milestones and keeping up with peers or whether an evaluation for learning disabilities may be warranted. And although earlier is always better, it’s never too late to be evaluated for learning disabilities and to seek treatment.
What happens if learning disabilities are left untreated?
Undiagnosed and untreated learning disabilities can be a source of significant frustration and shame for a child, who may feel that their challenges stem from a lack of intelligence or willpower. Such feelings can trigger low self-esteem, depression, or anxiety, which may push a child toward risky behaviors, including substance use. In adulthood, untreated learning disabilities can interfere with career success, and lingering feelings of self-doubt and shame can negatively affect someone’s mental health.
Are there medications for learning disabilities?
Currently, there are no medications designed to treat specific learning disabilities such as dysgraphia or dyscalculia. However, someone with a learning disability may be prescribed medication for a comorbid condition, such as anxiety, depression, or ADHD, which may have positive downstream effects on their learning disability; for example, a child with both ADHD and dyslexia may find that they’re better able to focus on their reading exercises after being prescribed a stimulant medication.
