Description
Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) Welcome! I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma, fertility, compulsions, stress, coping skills, suicidal thoughts, disordered eating, body image, and ADHD, with a focus on complex trauma in adults and youth. I've supported victims with Hamilton Police Victim Services, worked at a youth mental health facility, and focused on maternal mental health during my graduate studies. If you're feeling overwhelmed, let's work together to find peace. I offer empathy and warmth in our journey to understand and overcome your challenges. I work with anyone 6+
