I do not diagnose Autism/ASD nor do I provide formal assessment services.
People with Autism Spectrum Conditions (ASD)/Autistic people experience the world differently. There is great diversity in those who are 'on the spectrum'. However, there are also challenges that are uniquely experienced by those with ASD. Our counselling service is tailored to serve Autistic people with specific modifications to address individual learning and communication styles. We serve individuals 10 years of age and older, as well as their families. To benefit from counselling, individuals must be able to talk about their thoughts, feelings, and experiences.

Welcome! My sole purpose in choosing to work in this field was to help children and families navigate the complex needs surrounding an ADHD, ASD ( Autism) or ODD Diagnosis. Soaring Heights strives to help both children in developing lagging skills, as well as families learn about these difficulties so they can work towards a more cohesive family unit. We work with FSCD funding (Specialized Services & DBS contracts) as well as as private healthcare accounts. Sessions with the child are conducted primarily through play-based learning; however, dependent on the child's needs, can include concepts of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA).

In my private practice, I specialize in diagnostic assessments particularly for autism spectrum conditions/disorder.
I enjoy using my expertise to help children, adolescents, parents, and adults explore neurodevelopmental differences through supportive psychological assessment. The clients I work with are neurodiverse themselves, and/or have neurodivergent children. They are exploring this diversity to better understand themselves or their child, their needs, and how they can thrive at home, in school, in the workplace, and in their broader community. Diagnostic assessment can help to support appropriate interventions, access supports, clarify aspects of personal identity, and help people develop the story of who they are.

I can diagnose Autism, ADHD, Learning Disabilities, Anxiety, Depression, Bipolar Disorder PTSD, Personality Disorders and so on.
Specialized Assessments: Do you require a psychological assessment to give you insight into you or your child’s psychological functioning and to provide you with information on how you or your child could be supported? Are you struggling with issues related to trauma, depression or anxiety? Do you difficulty with learning, inattention or poor memory? I am a doctoral level psychologist and I provide neuropsychological, psychological/mental health and psychoeducational assessments to children, youth and adults.

Assisting individuals with various challenges such as Autism, ADHD, Sensory overstimulation, Depression, Anxiety, Substance use and abuse, Grief, etc.
As a qualifying Dance/Movement Therapist (ADTA), I work somatically with the body as a bridge to understanding emotions and internal processes, as well as using movement as an outlet for expression. Mindful (or 'bodyful') awareness is at the root of our work together. My goal is to assist you to find your most authentic self and find comfort in expressing from that place. I am a compassionate and embodied professional who works with adults, teens, and groups.

Do you want to explore your differences? Perhaps you are a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP), neurodivergent ( Autism, ADHD, etc.), gifted, 2slgbtqia+, intense, a parent of a high needs child, or different in some other way. Your challenges may include dealing with intense feelings, being over-critical of yourself, being easily overwhelmed by life, stress-related physical conditions, feeling alone, or a tendency to put your own needs last. I offer a safe and accepting space to explore who you really are, and what you need to survive and thrive in a world not designed for you.
