Clinical Focus Areas
Select a specialty to learn how I navigate these challenges with you.
ADHD & Neurodiversity
As a neurodiverse therapist, I understand firsthand the executive dysfunction, burnout, and emotional fatigue that come with living in a neurotypical world. Together, we discard shame and build sustainable self-advocacy and coping tools that align with your unique brain.

Anxiety & Depression
When worry, physical tension, and low mood take over, daily life can feel like an uphill battle. I use Cognitive Behavioural (CBT) and Mindfulness approaches to help uncover the roots of your anxiety, soothe your nervous system, and restore inner peace.
