Support for Kids, Teens & Families Navigating Life’s Challenges

Therapy for children (10+), teens, and families -in English and American Sign Language (ASL)

Growing up isn’t always easy and parenting through it can be just as challenging. Whether your family is navigating big changes like divorce, dealing with conflict, or your child is struggling with emotions, behaviour, or other challenges, you’re not alone. As a social worker specializing in working with older children, teens, and families, I provide a safe and supportive space where young people, their parents, and caregivers feel understood, respected, and empowered. I work with:

Children (10+) and teens dealing with anxiety, big emotions, anger management, low self-esteem, identity questions, or peer and school challenges

Parents and caregivers seeking tools and support to strengthen relationships and improve family dynamics

Families in transition — including separation, divorce, co-parenting, blended families, and grief

As your therapist, I take the time to understand each person’s unique background, including how your culture, identity, and life circumstances shape what you are going through so that therapy feels respectful, relevant, and truly supportive for your unique situation. Whether I’m helping a teen explore who they are, supporting a child in managing their emotions, guiding parents through difficult transitions, or working with families navigating grief, I work collaboratively, always centering compassion, growth, and practical tools that make a difference in daily life. I offer therapy in both English and American Sign Language (ASL) to make sure communication is never a barrier to feeling seen and heard. If you’re looking for meaningful support for yourself, your child, or your family, I’m here to walk alongside you
