I help people better understand and work in harmony with their neurodivergent brains. I support children (8+), adolescents, and adults by tailoring evidence-based interventions to fit a neurodiverse affirming framework. I believe therapy is a collaborative partnership, and I will walk along side you with empathy, openness, and a bit of humour, to gently challenge unhelpful patterns to facilitate meaningful change. I am equipped to treat the diagnoses you are living with and/or exposed to, such as: ADHD, ASD, depression, anxiety, PTSD, personality disorders and interpersonal struggles.

You may feel the weight of anxiety and self-doubt, overwhelming both your mind and body. It's not just the constant worrying, but the physical toll it takes—the tightness in your chest, your heart racing, sleepless nights, and a lingering exhaustion that doesn’t seem to go away. You might find yourself caught in a cycle of questioning whether you're good enough or capable, and it becomes harder to manage the pressure to perform. On the outside, you try to keep up, but internally, something doesn’t feel right. It’s as if you’re simply going through the motions without fully engaging in life.

Hi, I'm Annie. Some people spend years being called lazy, careless, too much, or not applying themselves, when the truth is that their brain has been working twice as hard as anyone realised. Maybe you were diagnosed in your twenties, thirties or later, and you look back at old report cards and old jobs with a strange mix of relief and grief. Maybe you have never been assessed and simply recognised yourself in something you read. Either way, tasks that look small to other people cost you an enormous amount, and the effort never shows on the outside. I work with teens, young adults and adults who are tired of carrying that alone.

I conduct comprehensive assessments of ADHD, Autism, Learning Disorders, and mental health.
Both my assessment and therapy work are grounded in a deeply collaborative approach; I know that my clients come to our conversations with a wealth of experiences and self-knowledge, and I see my role as one of meeting them there with as many tools as I can offer to help with continuing to move forward in ways that they value. I am interested in demystifying the diagnostic and therapy process so that clients can be active participants both in our work and in their next steps.

I help women feel heard, supported, and understood. You might be living with anxiety, or struggling with expressing emotions. You’re probably looking for support so you can process the past, focus on personal growth, and navigate relationships with more ease.

I'm a huge advocate for seeking help through challenging phases in our life. It is normal to experience complicated emotions, feel lost and disconnected sometimes. It is monumental to understand that struggling with mental health does not make us weak but makes us normal! If you have a mind- you have mental health, and we all struggle with mental and physical health at some point. I am a firm believer in the mind-body connection- our body ascertains and embodies the signs when we are struggling. Therapy can be a catalyst for developing lifelong skills and a gateway to becoming a more mindful, resilient and aware version of yourself.
