Areas of
Specialization

I work with adult clients (individuals, couples, parents) who want help with this neurodivergence, whether they (or their loved one) have a formal diagnosis or not. I offer a variety of therapeutic modalities with a strength, acceptance, and mindfulness based perspective. This work is collaborative, individualized, and aimed at creating positive change and personal empowerment. ADHD is not something to be "cured", it is a neurotype that brings great strengths and challenges. I help clients set up systems to address the challenging bits and help them release any shame and grief that may hinder their progress.

If you are struggling to moderate or stop using a substance or engaging in a troubling behaviour (e.g., binge eating, compulsive eating, cannabis, alcohol, nicotine, excessive online activity, infidelity, hyper sexuality, and so on), I offer talk and behaviour therapy and an individualized, collaborative plan customized for you. Increasing your awareness, acceptance, and capacity to engage in ongoing positive action-steps to help you meet your goal is often part of this work. Together, we get the monkey off your back and strive to prevent others from hopping on.

People tend to seek help for emotions when they begin to interfere with their ability to manage some aspect of their lives (e.g., going to work or school, driving, leaving the house, managing relationships). Anxiety can be so intense, it causes panic attacks. Intense anger can derail relationships and erode self-esteem. Grief and sadness can weigh very heavily on us and make us feel like we're walking through mud. When people feel stuck, I use different techniques to help release the emotion(s), including Emotional Freedom Techniques which I describe in greater detail
