My ideal client is anybody who needs a safe space to talk. My general goal with a client is to get them to a place of acceptance, congruence, or comfort with who they are.
Some clients have complex or deeprooted challenges, and come to be to engage with those, others need a space to mull things over or simply check in with themselves to see how they are doing, and the rest do both. We take therapy at your pace; I don't set the agenda.

Maybe you’ve tried therapy - the worksheets, the apps, the coping tools that promised to help. If you’re neurodivergent or living with trauma, it’s no surprise those didn’t stick; survival mode needs more than a strategy. You might be here after a diagnosis, burnout, loss, or just years of masking that finally caught up with you. Either way, we start where you are - not where you think you’re “supposed” to be.

Many of my clients are high-performing individuals who live with ADHD, often caught in a cycle of overworking, burnout, and self-criticism.
My approach is clinical, caring, and collaborative. Many of my clients begin therapy when they’re feeling stuck, anxious, or after experiencing a significant life event. In a safe and supportive space, we explore their current difficulties understanding what has happened, what might be maintaining the problem, and how we can begin to reframe or change the situation.
Often, clients come to therapy saying, “I just want to be happy” or “I want to feel like myself again.” Together, we unpack what happiness and self-connection truly means for you and explore why these feelings may feel out of reach right now.

ADHD Counsellors
When should I seek treatment for ADHD?
You should seek treatment for ADHD if you consistently have difficulty with attention, hyperactivity, or impulsivity that interferes with your daily life. Symptoms of ADHD include the inability to sustain attention during tasks, difficulty organizing tasks and activities, being easily distracted, frequent fidgeting or squirming, and talking or interrupting excessively. If these symptoms interfere with your career, academics, or relationships—for example, consistently failing to complete professional projects on time—you should seek an evaluation for ADHD.
How does treatment for ADHD work?
Effective treatment for ADHD often consists of medication, behavioural therapy, and lifestyle changes. Stimulant medications such as Adderall and Ritalin work by altering levels of neurotransmitters in the brain; higher levels of dopamine and norepinephrine are known to improve attention and focus. Therapy works by helping people with ADHD understand the condition, discuss their areas of difficulty, and develop behavioral strategies to manage their symptoms. In some cases, modifying one’s diet and exercise can also help improve symptoms.
How long does treatment for ADHD take?
It’s tough to give an exact time frame because everyone varies. In terms of medications, stimulants begin to work very soon after you take them, generally within the hour. It may take time to identify the right medication and dosage, but the medication itself is fast-acting. In terms of therapy, it takes time to develop skills and put them into practice, but you will likely see improvements within a few weeks or months.
