About Andrea
Their own wordsHi, I am Andrea (she/her)!
I am passionate about working with children age 6+ and families. I believe that engaging in a collaborative therapeutic process helps individuals live happier, healthier, and more rewarding lives.
In my work with individuals, families, and schools, I apply a collaborative, trauma-informed, solution-focused, and strength-based perspective that informs my approach.
I help children with a variety of needs to better comprehend and deal with oppositional behaviour, anxiety, ADHD, school avoidance, and problems with challenging situations. I also work with neurodivergent children, youths and their families.
I offer young people with a supportive space to explore their strengths and challenges. I also provide a warm, safe, accepting and free-of-judgement setting.
I look forward to connecting with you!
