Let's Connect (226) 806-0492
I have been honoured and dedicated to work with children, youth and their families for over 27 years. I offer a safe, non-judgmental environment where clients are heard and valued. My easygoing and practical approach allows me to effectively connect with children, youth and their families. Within the therapeutic process, children and families feel understood and develop the tools they need to manage "life's storms". I believe that it is essential to view children and youth within the context of their family and as such, I regularly provide parental guidance and strategies.
My areas of specialty include anxiety and school issues in children and youth. I use a collaborative and goal focused approach that fits the needs of the child, youth and caregivers. I also offer immediate support after a traumatic event to help individuals of any age cope with the situation.
