Life can be overwhelming - it can help to have a safe, supportive space to talk things through. I help people make sense of their thoughts, feelings, and relationships. My approach is warm, empathetic, and non-judgemental. Together we will create meaningful goals, build on strengths, and develop tools and strategies to feel more grounded and in control. I take an integrative and collaborative approach to supporting with a variety of challenges and ages including kids, teens, young adults, parents, and families. I believe finding the right fit for you, or your child, is important to support with meaningful steps toward your goals
I am a registered psychologist in Calgary offering psychoeducational assessments and counselling services to all ages. I specialize in working with kids teens, and young adults experiencing a variety of challenges (e.g. anxiety, depression, ADHD, developmental disorders, learning difficulties, emotional regulation, relationship challenges, life transitions).
Above all, I aim to create a space that feels safe, supportive, and even fun - where yourself, or your child or teen can feel seen, heard, and empowered. If you’re looking for compassionate, evidence-based support, I’d be happy to connect. You don’t have to face life’s challenges alone!
