Growing up can be challenging. Whether it’s navigating school pressures, managing big emotions, or coping with difficult family changes, children and teens benefit from a safe, supportive space where they can explore their feelings and develop healthy coping skills.

Counselling offers a confidential, non-judgmental environment where young clients can:

• Understand and express their emotions

• Build resilience and self-esteem

• Develop healthy coping strategies

• Improve communication and relationships

• Navigate transitions such as divorce, grief, or moving

• Manage anxiety, depression, or behavioural concerns

What to Expect

I use a variety of evidence-based and creative techniques, including play therapy, art, narrative approaches, and skills-building exercises. Therapy sessions are designed to be engaging, age-appropriate, and paced to meet each child or teen’s unique needs. Parents and caregivers are invited to be part of the process as appropriate, fostering a supportive environment both in and outside the therapy room.

I support children and youth facing challenges such as:

• Anxiety and stress

• Depression and low mood

• Social difficulties and peer challenges

• Trauma and loss

• Attention and behavioural concerns

• Life transitions and family changes

My practice is a welcoming space for all children and youth, regardless of background, identity, or ability. I prioritize inclusivity, respect, and cultural sensitivity in every session.
