About Sabrina

Hi there! I’m Sabrina, and I’m all about helping children, teens, young adults – and adults too! Life can throw challenges at us at any stage, and it’s my passion to guide people of all ages through life’s ups and downs with warmth, compassion, and a big dose of encouragement. Whether it’s building confidence, learning to manage emotions, or tackling tricky situations, I’m here to help your child, teen, or even you feel empowered and supported every step of the way.

With a Bachelor of Science (with a minor in Psychology) from Mount Royal University and a Master’s in Counselling from City University of Seattle, I bring both solid education and heartfelt experience to my practice. Working with young minds is my main focus, and I’m also dedicated to helping adults navigate their own paths to mental well-being. I am also trained in widely used assessment tools for identifying and diagnosing autism (the ADOS-2 and the ADI-R).

I get it – therapy might sound serious, but I believe it can also be engaging and even fun! When working with kids and teens, I create an environment where they feel relaxed, heard, and maybe even excited to show up. Using tools like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), I tailor each session to the unique needs of my clients. Whether it’s a child learning to manage big emotions, a teen navigating school stress, or an adult working through personal growth, my approach is flexible, evidence-based, and highly personalized. My proactive approach equips kids, teens, and adults alike with the tools they need to tackle life’s challenges and build lifelong resilience. We work together to not only address what’s happening now but also lay the groundwork for a happy, fulfilling future.

I know how important it is for people to feel understood, especially kids and teens. That’s why I take the time to connect with each client I work with, creating a safe, welcoming space where they can truly be themselves. I aim to be approachable and warm, and to really “get” people of all ages. From easing anxieties to managing big emotions or making important life changes, I’m here to be a guide, a cheerleader, and a trusted ally. Watching these transformations is the absolute best part of my work!

If you’re looking for a therapist who connects easily with kids, teens, and adults, brings positivity to every session, and uses proven strategies to help you or your loved one grow, I’d love to meet you! Let’s team up to build confidence, resilience, and the skills needed to shine – now and into the future.

How I work

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

Practical tools for noticing and shifting the thoughts and habits that keep anxiety and big emotions going, adapted to be engaging for kids and teens.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Learning to make room for hard feelings rather than fight them, and taking steps toward what matters most to you.

Attachment-based therapy

Understanding how connection and early relationships shape the way we feel and cope, and building a safe, trusting relationship to grow from.

Also:

Trauma-focused CBT (TF-CBT), play therapy, mindfulness-based, person-centred, strengths-based and humanistic therapy.

A bit more about me

When I’m not working, you’ll find me hiking, reading, or spending quality time with my dog (a great listener, by the way!). I also love exploring creative arts, which inspire my holistic and balanced approach to therapy. Life’s challenges can feel big, but together we can tackle them with curiosity, courage, and maybe even a smile.
