Young Adult and Adult Assessment
ADHD
Many of us grew up in times where difficulties with task initiation and sustained attention or impulsivity were simply labeled as "laziness", "unmotivated", and "oppositional." Our knowledge around neurodiversity has grown and many individuals, are identified as having ADHD later in life.
Autism
While self-diagnosis of autism in adulthood is widely accepted within the autistic community, especially for women and non-binary individuals, some individuals request a formal assessment as part of their journey of self-understanding.
Therapy
Individual child and adolescent therapy utilizing empirically supported approaches including cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and attachment based.
Targeting difficulties such as:
- Anxiety
- Depression
- Aggression
- Selective Mutism

With parent coaching, parents become co-therapists and co-regulators for their children. Parents are helped to identify their family values and to align their parenting approach with these and with what we know about child development.
