In K9A 3P9 - Nearby to Lindsay.
We believe in providing a comfortable and safe setting for children to connect with the therapist using hands-on and play modalities. Once we have earned the child's trust, we can then assist the child with developing awareness of how their thoughts and feeling influence their actions. In turn, a little bit of awareness can help a child make significant and lasting changes.

I work with each child at their own pace, using creative, playful and meaningful strategies to understand and address their emotional and behavioural needs. If appropriate or necessary, I might also incorporate parents/guardians into the therapeutic work. I can also suggest resources and strategies alongside the individual work with the child to assist parents in supporting the child's therapeutic process and personal growth.

Registered Psychotherapist/Registered Canadian Art Therapist/Certified Play Therapist
In K9L 1M4 - Nearby to Lindsay.
I have a deep respect for children. I work from a basis of compassion and honoring each child for who they are. I offer play and art therapy. These modes are well suited for children as it is through play that children find a way to sort out their experiences and find new ways to orient themselves in their lives. Art can offer a similar approach to play in that they both access the creative intuitive parts of the brain allowing children to heal and grow through their natural modes of being. There are many types of play therapy and which type is used depends on what the child needs, and what situation they are dealing with.

When doing therapy with young children, my primary goal is to first make them feel safe and comfortable. I use Play Therapy and Emotion Focused techniques to address concerns and help them regulate their emotions to be able to navigate significant changes in their lives. I find that it is helpful to collaborate with parents for a smoother transition of therapy tools into their lives at home. These younger years can greatly impact their adulthood, which makes therapy a useful tool in building long-term resilience. Call today to see if your child’s needs and my expertise are a good fit.

Social Confidence Life Coach
In L0B 1A0 - Nearby to Lindsay.
Is your child bullied or isolated from others? Is your child reluctant to go to school, has trouble making friends, or seems withdrawn and lonely? Many children have trouble with self confidence, anxiety or social skills. Improving self esteem, emotional regulation, and social skills deficits in the younger years reduces difficulties later. We all want the best for our children, and as a parent myself I know how it can hurt to watch your child suffer and not know how to help. Find out how your child can be helped by in-person counselling, online coaching, or online educational programs.
