Therapists in Kitchener, ON

I specialize in working with children, youth, and families who experience symptoms of anxiety, depression, Autism, ADHD, ODD, and learning disabilities. My clients often struggle with self-esteem, difficult family events, bullying, navigating peer relationships, social skill development, and emotional regulation. I also work with caregivers to help them manage their children’s behavior. My focus is on teaching caregivers skills that will create spaces and lifestyles geared towards fostering positive development.

It takes courage and insight to ask for help! If you are a student or international student who is frustrated, challenged with schedules and deadlines, maybe have learning disabilities, struggle with priorities, need help navigating school, educators, schedules, and relationships - I am here to help! I am an immigrant and worked with college/university students as a faculty, clinical educator, and program coordinator. Coaching, culturally sensitive, and using strength-based counseling coupled with CBT and mindfulness I can help to get passed the frustration, struggles, and how going to school can be done with ease and enjoyment!

My clients often describe the experience of “feeling stuck or trapped” when their inner resources become either depleted or no longer effectively assist them with moving forward in life. If this sounds familiar, I invite you to a shared relational learning experience that is uniquely tailored to your inner journey of self-exploration and provides you with important tools to re-discover yourself. Resilience and hope are results of serious, repeated efforts to overcome life’s challenges. I am here to work through them with you, every step of the way…within a client-centred, non-judgemental, anti-oppressive, and sex positive framework.
