Description
I am a Registered Counselling Therapist in Dartmouth, NS, with 14 years of therapy experience. I specialize in providing mental health services for individuals with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), among other mental health concerns, such as anxiety, stress, relationship issues, and difficulties with life's transitions. I also provide animal assisted therapy with my therapy dog, Wendell (upon request).
