Are you looking for therapy for yourself, your family, your child or teen? Would it be helpful to have someone to touch base with in a private, safe space? Is your child or teen struggling to manage overwhelming emotions, or are you dealing with outbursts of aggression or anger at home? My experience includes supporting individuals who have experienced trauma(s), attachment difficulties, ODD, ADHD, ASD, anxiety, depression, ABI/TBI, self-harm and difficulties with emotional regulation.
I am a registered social worker, secondary school teacher, and am in the process of completing a specialization in play therapy. I bring to my work an understanding of disability, neurodiversity, anxiety, ADHD, ODD and trauma that clients tell me is different from other experiences they have had. I also offer canine-assisted therapy (limited clients only).
I believe that we all thrive when we feel supported, valued and welcomed. I am not interested in 'fixing' anyone, as we all have things we do well, and things we'd rather change about ourselves. I am here to support you, your child or family, and can offer resources, strategies and a supportive environment to facilitate positive growth and change.

Sessions are tailored to individual needs, age and abilities of clients. Play is the language of communication for children so a play room, and play therapy interventions, are incorporated in all sessions. Teens can self select play, canine-assisted or more traditional talk therapy approaches. And for adult clients a traditional talk therapy approach is often the preferred choice.
