I am a dedicated Educational psychologist with a deep passion for helping children, adolescents, and young adults navigate their emotional and developmental journeys. I have a particular love for working with children under 5, as I believe these early years are pivotal for laying a strong foundation for emotional well-being and growth.
Working psychodynamically, I believe in the transformative power of vulnerability, as Freud said, “Out of your vulnerabilities will come your strength.” In my practice, I create a nurturing space where children and young people feel safe enough to explore their vulnerabilities, knowing that from these very challenges, their greatest strengths can emerge.
I understand that seeking support for your child can feel overwhelming, but I’m here to walk alongside you. Whether they’re facing emotional, behavioural, developmental, or family challenges, I approach each situation with empathy and care. My goal is to help your child discover their inner strengths, fostering resilience, confidence, and healing.

I primarily use psychodynamic therapy. In sessions, we'll explore how past experiences and unconscious processes influence current behaviors and emotions. With this approach, we aim to gain deeper insight into patterns, fostering emotional growth and lasting change. For younger clients, I incorporate play therapy to help them express and work through feelings in a developmentally appropriate way.
