My therapeutic approach centres on being with individuals as they explore identity and meaning in an increasingly complicated world. I work with a broad range of clients navigating transitions, the stresses of modern parenthood, sociocultural and bicultural identity, and the impact of historical and present-day family constellations.

Though my therapeutic focus is not exclusive to the neurodivergent community, my practice is neuroaffirming and supports late-identified/high-masking autistic, ADHD, and gifted adults, as well as parents/caregivers raising neurodivergent and/or greater support needs children. I also care for mixed-neurotype couples and families learning to understand and support each other's different ways of being. Burnout and advocacy fatigue — particularly the exhaustion that comes from ongoing explaining, adapting, or fighting to be understood — are common presentations in my practice.

Beyond the therapy space, I am actively involved in teaching, advocacy, and facilitating parent/caregiver support groups, and I bring the same grounded, culturally-curious approach to community and educational spaces. I am deeply committed to being an ally to marginalized communities, including 2SLGBTQ+, disabled, and racialized identities, and I engage in ongoing work to ensure my practice is a space where all identities are heard, respected and affirmed.

My professional experience as a journalist and media contributor also shapes how I show up in my work, with a commitment to making complex ideas and concepts accessible to a broader audience as part of shifting beliefs and dismantling harmful systems.

Consultation/Advocacy for Neuroaffirming Spaces

I deliver neuroaffirming advocacy and education seminars across large-scale, high-impact corporate, regulatory, and healthcare audiences, translating clinical and lived-experience insight into practical, systems-level guidance for organizations.

Beyond institutional seminars, I facilitate ongoing caregiver/parent support group series for parents raising neurodivergent children by creating a space where families are recognized as the leading authority on their own child(ren), while also providing affirming support for the realities of advocacy fatigue.

I also serve as a Board Chair and Committee Chair for two national non-profit organizations that support youth and their families.

I offer peer consultation to fellow clinicians through presentations, in-person group consultation, and one-on-one sessions, sharing clinical frameworks and tools developed across my neurodivergent-affirming, trauma-informed, anti-oppressive practice .

I am currently working towards meeting the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario's supervision requirements, building on this consultation work as a foundation for offering formal clinical supervision beginning in 2027.
