I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) offering trauma-informed psychotherapy, ADHD assessments (under clinical supervision), and neurodivergent-affirming support for adults, families, and parents.

My clinical work is grounded in the understanding that emotional and behavioural challenges often make sense when viewed through a trauma, attachment, or nervous-system lens. I work collaboratively with clients to build emotional regulation, self-understanding, and practical strategies for daily life.

In addition to individual psychotherapy, I provide ADHD assessments for adults under the supervision of a psychologist, as well as education- and support-focused services for neurodivergent children, parents, and families. These services focus on understanding neurodivergence, strengthening family relationships, reducing shame, and supporting functioning at home and school.

My work integrates emotion-focused and body-based therapies with structured, practical tools. Depending on the service, sessions may include psychotherapy, assessment, or skills-based support.

I integrate: Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT), Internal Family Systems (IFS / parts work), EMDR-informed trauma therapy, Somatic & nervous-system regulation strategies, CBT and DBT skills, and Psychoeducation and executive-function support for ADHD and neurodivergence.

For families and parents, I take a neurodivergent-affirming and strengths-based approach, focusing on understanding behaviour through regulation, development, and environment — rather than pathology or punishment.
