As a Clinical Social Worker with over ten years of counselling experience, I have helped children, youth, and adults navigate the ups and downs of their emotions. Whether you or your child are experiencing feelings of depression, anxiety, self-harm, obsessive thoughts, or attention difficulties, I can tailor my therapy to fit your needs. I pull from a variety of evidence-based approaches, such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Theraplay, and play-based techniques. I have experience working with 2SLGBTQIA+ communities, not only providing gender-affirming care, but also helping parents with any questions if they are new to this world.
