I come to this work with professional training and lived experiences that influence how I understand people, resilience, and the challenges that impact mental health. They shape my commitment to offering therapy that is respectful, clear, and grounding, and to creating a space where clients feel supported from the start. My clinical interests focus on neurodiversity, identity development, and the ways receiving a diagnosis can influence and shift a person’s sense of self.

I am particularly interested in working with neurodivergent clients, including those exploring new diagnoses, navigating masking and burnout, or making sense of longstanding patterns that were previously misunderstood. I am also drawn to work that examines how illness and caregiving dynamics shape family functioning, communication, and emotional regulation.

I work with teens and adults who are navigating anxiety, burnout, chronic illness, identity questions, relationship stress, grief, or major life changes. I have a strong interest in supporting neurodivergent clients, including individuals who are exploring new diagnoses or trying to make sense of longstanding patterns. I also pay close attention to how family roles, expectations, and stressors can influence someone’s well-being. I also have experience in educational and behavioural settings, supporting children and families through structured and strengths-based approaches.

In therapy, I focus on helping clients understand what they’re experiencing, identify patterns that are getting in the way, and build tools that support meaningful change. I aim to make sessions approachable and collaborative, focusing on strengths, small steps, and what feels realistic in everyday life. My style is warm, steady, and practical. You do not need to have the “right” words or a clear plan — wherever you are, I will meet you there.

I believe that therapy begins with feeling genuinely seen, and I look forward to supporting clients as they take their first steps into this work.
