My Approach

Evidence-Based Methods for Young People

I use proven therapeutic approaches adapted specifically for children and teens. I work collaboratively with families to ensure lasting positive change.

CBT for Kids/Teens

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy adapted for young minds—helping them understand and manage thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.

  • Age-appropriate techniques
  • Manage anxiety & worry
  • Build problem-solving skills

DBT Skills

Dialectical Behaviour Therapy skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness—adapted for youth.

  • Emotional regulation tools
  • Coping with big feelings
  • Better relationships with peers

Trauma-Informed

A safe, supportive approach that recognizes the impact of difficult experiences and creates space for healing at the child's pace.

  • Safe, non-judgmental space
  • Respects the child's pace
  • Involves family when helpful

Parent Involvement: I work with parents/caregivers as partners in your child's progress. The level of involvement is tailored to your child's age and needs.

FAQ

Common Questions

The consultation is a brief call with a parent/guardian where I learn about your child's needs, answer your questions, and we discuss whether therapy is a good fit. There's no pressure—it's just a conversation to get started.
It depends on the child's age and needs. For younger children, parents are often more involved. For teens, sessions are typically individual with periodic parent check-ins. We'll discuss the best approach during your consultation.
I work with children and teens of all ages. I have experience with young children, pre-teens, and adolescents, and I adapt my approach based on developmental stage.
Yes! I have experience supporting neurodivergent children and teens, including those with autism. I use approaches that respect and work with your child's unique neurotype.
Yes, all sessions are conducted virtually via secure video. Many kids and teens are comfortable with video calls, and it allows sessions to happen in a familiar, comfortable environment.
Most families can book their first session within 1-2 weeks of their consultation. I do my best to accommodate your family's schedule.
