Our Services
Life brings challenges that can feel overwhelming – from the transitions of pregnancy and parenting, to navigating anxiety, depression, or the impact of trauma. My passion is creating a safe, down-to-earth space where you don’t have to go through it alone. I specialize in supporting individuals through perinatal and postnatal mental health, working with youth and families, and walking alongside those facing big emotions or difficult thoughts. Together, we’ll explore what you’re carrying, find tools that fit your needs, and move toward healing in a way that feels supportive and real.
Individual Therapy
I offer individual therapy to children, youth and adults. Some common treatment areas for individual counselling include anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, self-harm, grief, trauma, life transitions, burnout, low self-esteem, emotional dysregulation, and infertility support. When working with children and youth, I use art and game-based activities in sessions to make content more engaging.

Family Therapy
Trying to navigate family dynamics can be challenging. When working with families, I focus on trying to build understanding between members and teaching skills around perspective-taking, communication, and conflict resolution.

Caregiver Coaching
When working with children and youth, I believe it’s important to provide skills and resources to caregivers. These supports can be tailored to your child’s unique circumstances and are especially helpful when a youth may not yet be ready to engage in treatment themselves. Parenting can be a tough job, and it’s normal to need support for your own emotions along the way, helping caregivers build skills, confidence, and self-care is an essential part of the process.

Peri-Natal Therapy
Perinatal counselling offers support during pregnancy and postpartum, creating a safe space to navigate the many changes of this season of life. Whether you’re adjusting to parenthood, recovering after a difficult or traumatic birth, struggling with intrusive thoughts, or simply needing extra support, counselling can help. To make sessions as accessible as possible, you’re welcome to bring your baby along, and we can also offer walk-and-talk sessions with the stroller if that feels easier and more natural for you.
$140 per 50 minute Session
To help make therapy more accessible, I also offer reduced rates for individuals who do not have benefits or the financial means to pay the full price. Please feel free to inquire about this during the intake process.
Important Client Information
Sessions
Sessions can vary from 45-60 minutes. Sessions for younger children tend to last a bit less due to some struggling to focus for longer than 40-45 minutes.
Registrations
I am registered with the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers (OCSWSSW).
Insurance
At this time, I do not direct bill. Once payment is received, I can send you a receipt that can be submitted to your insurance company for reimbursement.
Frequency
The frequency of sessions can change depending on a few factors. The first is the need. Some people are needing/wanting to meet on a weekly or biweekly basis to have more consistency for goals Another variable is fees and coverage. Some people have a limited amount of coverage from insurance. I do my best to discuss this limit with clients and determine what would make the most sense for your situation.
Payments
Lemons Into Lemonade Counselling accepts e-transfers (EMTs) and credit cards for payments.
Cancellations
I currently require 24 hours’ notice for any change or cancellation of an appointment. I do realize that situations and life can get in the way and therefore the first time an appointment is missed, I do not charge the fee; the second time I charge half of the session fee; and, the third time I charge the entire session fee.
