Life has the tendency to throw us curveballs and sometimes we have the capacity to dodge them on our own, but other times we may be carrying too much and our ability to navigate it all begins to feel unmanageable. I firmly believe that therapy is for everyone. Whether what brought you here was situational or long-term, seeking the help of a professional is the first step in healing. I provide clients with a safe and inclusive space to be vulnerable about the challenges they are facing. With your commitment to and trust in the process, we will work collaboratively to set goals and create positive and sustainable changes in your life.

I firmly believe every child and parent has an inherent desire to do well, and when they aren't, they just need a little help getting there. Together, we can do that. In my practice, I work alongside children, youth, and families to support them through life's challenges so they can build the skills to thrive. While I bring my knowledge as a psychotherapist, each individual is ultimately the expert in their own lives. In therapy, I hope to be able to co-create a space in which I can act as a guide to help your young person explore, reflect, and move toward growth.

The decision to access counselling is a personal one. Whether you've been to a counsellor before, or you are just starting to explore the options, thank you. Not just for reading this - but for taking the time to look into what is available and what may be right for you. People generally come to therapy for a reason, such as a specific event that they would like to discuss, or to work through uncomfortable emotions. Together, we can prioritize goals, explore and work through issues, develop new coping strategies, and create a plan to determine next steps.
