During our time together, you can expect consistency, warmth, honesty, and a good laugh when needed. I work with folks of all ages, and specialize in providing counselling and play therapy for children (3+), teens, and families. If you or your loved one are experiencing emotional turbulence, disconnection, conflict, anxiety, relationship difficulties, attachment challenges, or grief/loss, counselling can help. I provide developmentally appropriate mental health care that is neurodivergent-affirming and honours you or your child's unique strengths and needs.
Before becoming a counsellor, I worked for 12 years as a restorative justice facilitator and trainer in K-12 education, supporting children, youth, and adults to build healthier relationships and heal in the wake of violence and harm. The hundreds of young people I have worked with over the years have been my greatest teachers.
If things are feeling chaotic, confusing, or painful right now, know that you don't need to go at it alone. If you'd like to chat and see if we'd be a fit, please get in touch for a free consult. I look forward to working with you or your family member, or simply helping connect you to the kind of support you're looking for.
