I work with children, young people and parents.

Therapy looks different for different ages and is suited to the specific needs and developmental stage of my client.

Children -

With younger children, I pay close attention not only to words but also to play. Through observing and engaging with their play I can help them make sense of the feelings they may not have words for. When children feel understood, they begin to find their own voice, process feelings more easily, and move forward developmentally.

Adolescents -

Adolescence is a tumultuous stage of growing up. With so much changing inside and out it can help to have someone who is not a peer or family member to talk about some of the challenges, pressures and stresses that make adolescence so difficult.

Young Adults (up to age 25) -

This period of life is full of transitions, independence, and big decisions. It can feel exciting, but also confusing or overwhelming. I work with gap-year students, university students, and young professionals, including many who have recently made Aliyah or other significant life changes. We work together to begin to make sense of what feels difficult, develop a more grounded sense of self, and open up new possibilities for growth and change.

Parents -

With parents I offer a space to think about your child, understand what might be behind the behaviours or difficulties and support you in finding a way forward together.

Starting therapy can feel like a big step. After an initial consultation, we will arrange one or more assessment sessions. The first few sessions are simply an opportunity for us to get to know each other and to see whether therapy feels like a good fit for you and your child.

These early sessions form part of the assessment, during which we explore what has brought you or your child to therapy and what might be happening beneath the surface. During this stage, I observe, listen, and begin to develop an understanding of the difficulties and the factors that may be contributing to them. Together, we start to think about your goals and what kind of therapeutic support might be most helpful.

At the end of the assessment, we agree on a plan for how to move forward.

Once we decide to begin ongoing work together, we will schedule a weekly session at the same time and place each week. This consistency helps build a reliable and containing space for the therapeutic process.
