Is your child struggling with school drop-offs, bedtime, missing someone special, parental separation, or loss? 💛✨

The Invisible String by Patrice Karst gently supports secure attachment by reminding children they’re always connected to the ones they love. It strengthens your relationship through shared language and offers a calming tool for regulating big feelings during moments of separation.

A simple story that builds security, connection, and comfort - no matter the distance.

❗So grateful for all the messages and interest I've received since starting in private practice in June - thank you 🤍

I am currently at full capacity and not accepting new individual clients. I will be sure to share an update here when that changes.

In the meantime, some of my wonderful colleagues do have availability, and I’m always happy to help connect you.

🌟 What does group counselling for kids and teens look like?

All group counselling programs are unique. I recently announced three different groups for children and teens! Each of the groups I am running will follow a general format to help participants feel safe and supported.

All groups will co-create group norms and expectations, giving participants a sense of ownership and belonging.

Each session includes:

1️⃣ Relationship Building and Check-Ins
2️⃣ Psychoeducation – learning new concepts and skills
3️⃣ Application – practicing skills in a fun, interactive way
4️⃣ Closing – reflecting on the session, connecting with peers, and grounding before leaving

Interested in learning which group might be the right fit? Reach out for details!

🌟 Group counselling helps kids and teens grow, connect, and thrive!

From learning with and from their peers, to realizing they’re not alone, group sessions give young people a safe space to express their feelings, practice coping skills, build confidence, and try out new strategies.

Support, connection, and growth - all in a welcoming group setting.
