Hi! I'm Emily.

​

I'm a passionate, life long learner and I believe in creating inclusive spaces for children where they can explore the world in safe and supportive environments. I focus in working with young children with complex needs and have been supporting families for nearly 15 years in both community and clinical settings.

​

After completing my degree at Carleton University in Linguistics and Psychology, I continued pursuing further education and training to better support the children and families I work with. I am a Certified Children's Yoga Teacher, specializing in making yoga inclusive and accessible, and am a Certified Therapeutic Riding Instructor. For the past eight years I have supported families working in Early Intervention programs for Autistic children while providing parent consultation and collaborating as part of multidisciplinary teams. 

​

I am registered with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario as a Qualifying Registered Psychotherapist. I have a comprehensive approach to therapy and believe the therapeutic relationship with a child is the most important piece for our success together. I use approaches based in play therapy, attachment theory, mindfulness, psychoanalysis and body-based regulation while supporting children's emotional and sensory needs. I work alongside parents to help them become the most reliable co-regulator for their child.
