Services
Youth
Social isolation, emotional outbursts, suicidal ideation, other diagnoses (ODD, IED, GAD, MDD, SAD, LD's), family dynamics, academics, friends - you name it, therapy is a great place to talk, process, and gain strategies for navigating life's stressors.
Adults
If you aging out of autism services geared toward children and youth, it can be a challenging time navigating finding new services. This is also a unique transitional time neurodivergent youth as they become adults and learn to navigate post-secondary education, working, self-care, routines, and social relationships. Or maybe, you're an adult who suspects that you're on the spectrum or you're newly diagnosed with ADHD - let's chat!
Parenting
Parental burnout, overwhelm, difficulty with decision making (medication? consequences for behaviour? problem solving?). All while juggling your own relationships and work-life balance. Therapy is the place to unpack, breathe, reset, and move forward with more ease.
Common Themes
Unmet needs? Oh, just settling for a side of disrespect with a dash of misalignment—delicious! - Emotional dysregulation is like a rollercoaster ride: one minute you’re on a high, next you’re either shutting down or having a meltdown. Talking about the same topics over and over is like watching the same bad movie—lots of eye-rolling and no new plot twists, just a whole lot of resentment!
When it comes to intimacy, if your desires clash like two left feet on the dance floor, you’ll end up feeling insecure and wishing for a safety net. - Emotional affairs Just think of them as your partner’s quest for validation—like they’re on a treasure hunt for joy and connection in all the wrong places!
Toss in some people-pleasing, narcissism, and trauma, and you've got yourself a real-life soap opera! Women are out here trying to communicate, fix, and even go to therapy solo—like superheroes without capes! Some men may act like nothing’s wrong, lashing out or shutting down, as if they’re in a game of emotional hide-and-seek. Yet, through all the chaos, both parties still cling to each other like a couple of koalas—conflict and all!
And let’s not forget the financial stress—because nothing spices up a relationship like differing opinions on money management!
