I understand the courage it takes to enter in to therapy. My initial aim is to make a connection with you. My practice is non-judgemental, confidential and safe. My belief is you have the answers, as you know your "self" best. With my support and guidance you will start to make changes and feel the benefit of change. I listen well and at times I do not answer, I simply listen so you are heard. We will discuss your issues and look at what needs you wish to have met. We will then look at your goals, figure out how to get their and find out what's stopping you right now. Along the way we will review the positive changes you are making.

I offer online and in-person therapy sessions to adult and adolescents.
Seeking help during a challenging time can be difficult. Be confident that it is your inner strength that has guided you to reach out and seek support. In my experience, I have come to see that no issue is too big or too small; the difficulty comes in trying to overcome it alone. Allow me to provide a safe, confidential, supportive, non-judgemental space for you to talk about and explore the issues which you may be finding challenging or painful.

I work with adults and adolescents navigating anxiety, ADHD, life changes, and relationship challenges.
Life can be unpredictable, and sometimes it feels like you’re just trying to keep your head above water. Anxiety, loss, relationship struggles, or the challenges of neurodiversity can make it hard to see a way forward. Maybe self-doubt keeps creeping in, or familiar patterns leave you feeling stuck. You don’t just want to talk—you want something that helps. A space that feels safe but also gives you the tools to move forward. You need therapy that’s both structured and flexible, practical yet deeply understanding, helping you gain clarity, build confidence, and create real change.

Things never have a way of working out in life as to how we thought it would. Life throws many obstacles in our path, which can be very challenging. These can cause us to question ourself, our lives and our beliefs. These can create anxiety or depression, feelings of not being able to cope. It can leave us feeling broke and feeling that there is no way forward. We loose someone we love or a relationship or job, which can lead us to grieving for what we have lost. Sometimes we just need to find the right direction for our life.

FAQ - Teenage and Adolescent Therapists
What does therapy for teenagers look like?
When a therapist works with a teenager, the pair will talk about what the teen is struggling with and explore solutions, which may involve interpersonal skills, coping strategies, medication, or lifestyle changes related to sleep, diet, and exercise. Different therapists employ different modalities, but most involve a combination of conversation and skill building.
How long does therapy for teenagers generally take to work?
There’s variability in teenagers’ experiences and challenges; some may begin to improve from therapy within a few weeks while others may take several months or longer. Teens can discuss their progress with their therapist periodically to assess how they’re improving and any changes to the treatment plan that could potentially accelerate that progress.
How do you encourage a teenager to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express your concern and love while framing therapy as an opportunity to explore a tool that could help improve their life; just like they practice baseball or dance, now they can practice their emotional skills. Give your teen control over the process where you can—maybe by weighing in on choice of therapist and signaling that therapy involves confidentiality, so a parent need not know all that is discussed in sessions.
How do you prepare teens for therapy?
You can prepare your teenager for therapy by describing what the process will look like and setting expectations for timeline, if requested. You can explain that the first session may begin with an assessment phase, that they can describe their experiences but that the therapist will ask questions too, and that it may take time to feel comfortable opening up. Ask how they’re feeling about the process and answer any questions calmly and supportively.
