I particularly enjoy working with young people, especially teenagers who may feel overwhelmed, disenfranchised or disconnected from themselves and others.
 
My approach is rooted in compassion and understanding, first focusing on establishing a profound sense of trust and connection and  by nurturing their inherent qualities such as presence, mindfulness, and playfulness.
 
I support them towards developing greater emotional regulation, employing  coping skills and being able to express their emotions in a healthy, constructive manner.
