Meet Alison

MSW RSW

​

Welcome! I'm a Social Worker with over 10 years of experience supporting children, adolescents, and families. I hold both a Bachelor's and Master's degree in Social Work. I currently provide individual therapy to youth ages 12 and up, as well as adults, offering a space that is relaxed, supportive, and grounded in respect and privacy. I have extensive training and experience in Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), which helps youth build practical skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, mindfulness, and interpersonal effectiveness. I also integrate tools from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Unified Protocol, and mindfulness practices using a trauma-informed lens. I support youth who are navigating challenges like mood fluctuations, depression, anxiety, relationship stress, and internalized emotional struggles. 

​

 

My goal is to create a safe and collaborative space where young people feel heard, understood, and empowered to grow. If you're looking for a counsellor who’s approachable and skilled, I’d be happy to connect!
