If you’re noticing changes in your child, more withdrawn, more reactive, or struggling with something they won’t quite talk about, you’re not alone in wondering how to help. I work with children and adolescents on issues like bullying, behavioural challenges at home, and device or internet addiction.
Every child is different, and so is what brought you here. This is a space for your child to be heard, and for you to feel supported through the process too.
Sessions are tailored to your child's age and comfort level.
This is a partnership between you, your child, and me.
Your family's privacy is respected throughout the process.
Supporting your child through bullying, behavioural challenges, and more.
Generally, generally you as the parent will attend the first session alone if your child is under 14., so I can see the full picture: your child’s history, what’s been going on, and what you’re hoping to see change.
From there, you’ll stay involved and informed throughout treatment depending on your child’s age. This isn’t a process that happens without you, it’s one we work through together.
Screens are a normal part of life now, but when device use starts affecting sleep, mood, schoolwork, or relationships, it’s worth a closer look.
If your teen becomes withdrawn, irritable, or anxious when they’re away from their device, that’s often one of the clearer signs worth paying attention to.
Late nights on a device, dropping grades, or a noticeable dip in energy and focus can all point to device use that’s become harder to manage.
When hobbies, friendships, or family time start taking a back seat to screen time, it’s often a sign your teen could use some extra support.
We'll work to understand what's actually driving the behaviour, not just react to it.
Your child will build real skills for handling bullying, conflict, and difficult emotions.
You'll get guidance too, not just your child, since these challenges affect the whole household.

Reaching out is often the hardest step, and the most important one. Let’s talk about what’s going on and find a path forward together.
I work with children and adolescents on a range of issues, most commonly bullying, behavioural challenges at home, and device or internet addiction. If what your child is going through doesn’t fit neatly into one of these, reach out anyway, we can talk through whether this is the right fit.
For children under 14, parents attend the first session to share history and context, and stay involved throughout treatment. You’re not just dropping your child off, this is a collaborative process.
After the first session, most sessions are one-on-one between me and your child. That said, how involved you are day to day is something we’ll figure out together, based on what’s most helpful for your family.
Yes. Device and internet addiction in children and teens is something I work with regularly, and it’s addressed with the same care and confidentiality as any other concern.
