“Play is the highest form of research"
― Albert Einstein

Life can often feel busy, overwhelming, and full of ups and downs for the children and families I work with. My passion is supporting children, teens, and families in feeling understood and equipped with tools to navigate life’s challenges and big emotions. I strive to create a warm, safe, and non-judgmental space where everyone feels seen, heard, and supported.

I specialize in working with children and youth experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, attachment difficulties, low self-esteem, and challenges related to family transitions such as separation or divorce. I often use play, art, sand tray, music-informed activities, and other creative approaches to help children and teens express themselves in ways that feel natural and meaningful. Together, we can focus on building skills in emotional regulation, social interactions, executive functioning, self-esteem, and confidence, while developing healthy coping tools for navigating complex social and family dynamics.

My therapeutic approach is attachment-based, child-centred, and trauma-informed. I draw from a variety of modalities, including Play Therapy, Sand Tray Therapy, creative arts-based approaches, Animal-Assisted Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy.

My goal is to provide a safe and encouraging space where children, teens, and families can experience moments of connection, discover their strengths, and develop tools that help them thrive together.
