About  
Does it feel like you’re always walking on eggshells? Like you’ve tried all the things, but nothing seems to stick? I provide specialized online parent therapy and skills development for caregivers of highly sensitive, emotionally intense children. Learn why big feelings and tricky behaviours happen, and how to use well-researched strategies to begin meaningful change. Virtual sessions are available throughout the GTA and Ontario through Pixie Parenting. Since 2023, I have also worked at the Roncesvalles Psychology Clinic, where I see children and families for in person therapy and parenting support, and for psychoeducational, autism, and complex diagnostic assessments.
