Do you want to try one session to get a ‘life consult’ for yourself or someone you care about? I offer Single Session Therapy as well as ongoing counselling. Do you feel lost, overwhelmed, distressed, burdened or alone with your problems? I can help you connect the dots to see a bigger picture. Do you need help getting through a difficult time? Will it help to feel heard, supported and explore creative solutions to feeling better? I have extensive experience with relationships, work stress, student stress, trauma, abuse and families. Maya Angelou said, “be a rainbow in someone’s cloud”. That is what I aim to be.

The best child therapists in Kenmore build great relationships with the child and the parent.

Finally, a good therapist appreciates the child's culture and is sensitive to the values of the child's community.
