Description
Thanks for stopping by! I help people (age 12+) to navigate the ups & downs that come with life, including issues related to stress, ADHD, negative self talk, emotion regulation, self-esteem, and other emotional and/or mental health challenges. My style supports gentle curiousity about the roots of an emotion and/or behaviour, building internal resources, and increasing resiliency. After all, life isn’t always easy and I want people to trust that they have the understanding, capabilities, and skills to get through (and even thrive!), especially when things get rough.
