*Amy offers virtual therapy only*
Do you find yourself wondering what’s wrong with you or why you don’t fit in? As someone who is not-so-ordinary myself, I’m invested in providing you with a safe, non-judgmental, and compassionate space. My favourite part of my job is helping people recognize that there really isn’t anything wrong with them and that they can thrive by understanding and accepting who they are.
I’m a Registered Social Worker with over a decade of experience in the mental health field working with both adults and youth. Over the years, my passion has grown for the evidence-based therapy, Comprehensive Behavior Intervention for Tics and Tourette’s Syndrome (CBIT). It is a privilege to support individuals in developing a healthier, more confident relationship with their tics.
Often an increase in tics can show up in combination with Autism, Anxiety, OCD and ADHD; as a result, I’m also well-versed with therapeutic strategies to treat these symptoms. If this is your experience, we will explore strategies that help you manage both. Calm and focused brain and bodies tic less.
I work with all ages and tailor the therapy to your needs. This therapy is both engaging and insightful and at the end of each session you leave with concrete tools that move you forward. I’ve also developed a play-based virtual program for children ages 6-12 that keeps therapy fun!
I look forward to getting to know you and being a part of this important chapter!

In my spare time, I enjoy being with my village of family, friends, and pets. I love exploring new hiking trails, cheering for my family members, and taking moments to appreciate the simple, yet lovely, things in life.
