About
I’m a Registered Social Worker with over 20 years of experience supporting people in community mental health, schools, healthcare, hospitals, and private practice. I offer flexible and secure virtual therapy.
I specialize in supporting neurodivergent clients (ADHD, Autism, learning differences, and gifted/twice-exceptional individuals). I work with adults on concerns such as anxiety, sleep difficulties, life transitions, perfectionism, burnout, sensory processing sensitivity, and adjusting to a new diagnosis or self-diagnosis. I also help clients build practical strategies for organization, time management, masking, and navigating social expectations, while fostering self-acceptance and self-compassion.
I offer a neurodiversity-affirming approach grounded in empathy, clarity, and structure. That means we focus on what works for your brain and not trying to mold you into something you’re not. I believe in an approach that is empathic, strength-based, accepting, and affirming. I will work with you to help you let go of the things that no longer serve you. I believe in the importance of a collaborative relationship in order to help you achieve your desired outcome. I will take my time to listen carefully to ensure I fully understand your needs and situation. I bring my genuine, non-judgemental self to our sessions, at times using humour as appropriate. I also provide practical strategies and techniques to face your challenges, while helping build your own strengths and resources.
If you’d like to learn more, you’re welcome to book a free consultation to see if we’re a good fit to work together.
