It's not where you start,
or where you are,
but rather where you're going
and how you will get there.
Individual Therapy
Life is not always easy and has natural ups, downs, bumps, and boulders. We encounter struggles, disappointments, and can get stuck, regardless of our age or our accomplishments. Climbing out of that hole or up that hill is much better with help. That’s why I am here! There is always a path to where you want to be, but it’s not always so easy to figure out. Together we can find your path and develop strategies to tackle the obstacles that are blocking your way. It's not where you start or where you are, but rather where you are going and how you will get there.
Parent Consultations
Parenting can be stressful and draining at times. We have all been there! We want our children to be happy and do well, whether they are at home, at school, or out and about in the community. This isn’t always the case, though. If your child is neurodivergent, or has been diagnosed with ADHD, ASD, or learning challenges, this can add another very stressful layer. This is why I am here! It’s not easy to see things clearly or objectively when we are emotionally involved. It’s helpful to have an experienced, skilled, and knowledgeable person to guide you through solving these challenges.
College Students
This is an exciting time as you transition into adulthood and have new freedoms, but it is also a time of change which can sometimes cause stress and anxiety. Maybe It's the first time you are living away from home and there is no one to do your laundry or ask if you finished your homework. Are you having a hard time trying to figure out how to balance your new found freedoms with your school work and other responsibilities? Are you feeling lonely or isolated? Are you struggling with friendships or relationships? Are you feeling sad but not sure why?
