I am extremely passionate about working with teens, as they are a population that demonstrates remarkable resilience and capacity for growth. Some of the common areas I work with include anxiety, Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), autism spectrum disorder, and behavioural and emotional regulation challenges. I also have a strong interest in supporting young people involved in athletics and performance-based activities. Having been an international athlete myself, I understand the pressures, expectations, and emotional challenges that come with competitive sports, and I am committed to helping young athletes build resilience, balance, and self-confidence.

Finally, as someone who has spent most of her life as an international student, I am particularly sensitive to the challenges teens face when adjusting to a new country or culture, and I am passionate about supporting them through the stresses of displacement and adaptation. When working with teens, I use elements of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Acceptance & Commitment Therapy, and developmentally appropriate, strengths-based strategies, selecting approaches that best meet each individual’s unique needs. I aim to create a safe, supportive environment where teens feel heard, empowered, and confident in their growth.
