When people experience life stressors or trauma, it is not uncommon to stumble, become immobilized, or even unravel. My great passion is walk alongside people in dark chapters of their lives, to help them to dismantle obstacles, to move towards healthier functioning and healing. I help my clients, who include children, teens, adults and families, to find healthy perceptions of themselves and strengthen their relationships so they can accept and know themselves as whole, peaceful, and complete.

Are you tired of strained relationships? Do you find yourself fighting about the same things repeatedly, constantly needing reassurance from others, and distancing yourself from loved ones to cope emotionally? Is this causing feelings of sadness, anxiety, anger, disconnection from yourself and others as a result? Are you struggling with overthinking and negative self-talk, leading to a breakdown in communication? As a therapist specializing in individual and couples' support, I can help you and your partner understand that these behaviours are commonly used coping mechanisms that are rooted in past emotional wounds.

The children and adolescents I work with present with a variety of mental health issues such as anxiety, depression, autism spectrum disorder, ADHD, or self-harming behaviours. They might be struggling to manage their emotions and behaviours and may want assistance in achieving their therapeutic goals. I also support parents who want to learn ways in which they can best support their child during these difficult times. The parents I work with often struggle to manage their child's outbursts or meltdowns. I help them be more in tune with their child's emotions and provide strategies that help facilitate a secure attachment.

I have extensive experience working with couples, families and individuals looking to improve their lives in the areas of life skills, ADHD coping, ASD coping and trauma.
I am happy to work with an extensive range of clients and organize my practice around providing Client-Centred Therapy grounded in empirically-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). Additionally, I have lived experience as a first responder and am passionate about addressing the unique challenges associated with fulfilling such roles. In my experience working with people over the last 10 years, I've found that often their challenges are best addressed first and foremost by being heard; this act of listening is a gift that unlocks the resources hidden within.

ADHD, autism, and learning challenges were often missed or undiagnosed earlier in life. Do you think you have adult ADHD? Do you or your child have difficulty with learning? If you have trouble completing tasks, are disorganized, and have a busy mind, you are showing signs of attentional difficulties. You may also notice difficulties with relationships, work, academics, understanding, and memory. We provide assessments (ADHD, autism, psychoeducational, Return to work, personality, and psychodiagnostic). Validated questionnaires are used to identify mental health symptoms and assess emotional and intellectual functioning.

Do you find yourself consumed with stress and worry? Are you feeling trapped by, and out of control of, your thoughts and emotions? Although experiencing emotional pain is a natural part of being human, it can make life feel overwhelming and unmanageable. When life becomes hectic, it is easy to forget how to take care of ourselves, which is one of many areas that therapy can help. Connecting with a therapist who is emotionally attuned to your needs and provides you with individualized care is necessary to address your concerns and achieve your goals.

I work from the firmly rooted belief that all people make sense. From this lens, I believe all of our parts and patterns have a purpose and that more often than not this purpose is to protect us. But why do these ways of protecting ourselves sometimes feel like they are doing the opposite? Together we will bring curiosity and compassion towards this question while adapting new perspectives and reorganizing patterns within yourself, your nervous system and your relationships.

When should I seek treatment for ADHD?
You should seek treatment for ADHD if you consistently have difficulty with attention, hyperactivity, or impulsivity that interferes with your daily life. Symptoms of ADHD include the inability to sustain attention during tasks, difficulty organizing tasks and activities, being easily distracted, frequent fidgeting or squirming, and talking or interrupting excessively. If these symptoms interfere with your career, academics, or relationships—for example, consistently failing to complete professional projects on time—you should seek an evaluation for ADHD.
How does treatment for ADHD work?
Effective treatment for ADHD often consists of medication, behavioral therapy, and lifestyle changes. Stimulant medications such as Adderall and Ritalin work by altering levels of neurotransmitters in the brain; higher levels of dopamine and norepinephrine are known to improve attention and focus. Therapy works by helping people with ADHD understand the condition, discuss their areas of difficulty, and develop behavioral strategies to manage their symptoms. In some cases, modifying one’s diet and exercise can also help improve symptoms.
Are there specific medications for ADHD?
Medications to treat ADHD are generally stimulants, the most common are Adderall and Ritalin. There are two categories of stimulants: Amphetamines include Adderall, Dyanavel, Vyvanse, and Dexedrine, and methylphenidates include Ritalin, Concerta, Daytrana, Focalin, Quillichew, Quillivant, and Metadate. Non-stimulants and antidepressants may be used as an alternative if stimulants aren’t effective or viable for a particular patient.
How long does treatment for ADHD take?
It’s tough to give an exact time frame because everyone varies. In terms of medications, stimulants begin to work very soon after you take them, generally within the hour. It may take time to identify the right medication and dosage, but the medication itself is fast-acting. In terms of therapy, it takes time to develop skills and put them into practice, but you will likely see improvements within a few weeks or months.
