I’m Kevin, a social worker & clinical counsellor, specializing in play therapy for kids (4-10 years old) and trauma-healing approaches for both kids and adults (e.g., EMDR), particularly within the LGBTQ2S+ community.
I understand that embarking on the journey of seeking therapy for your child can be a big decision. You may have concerns, questions, and moments of uncertainty. Your dedication to support your child’s well-being and emotional growth is a testament to your love and care as their parent.
As a child therapist, I am here to accompany you on this journey, offering a space for both you and your child to heal and grow. I work collaboratively with parents always. Therapy is a team approach and your kids needs you. Together, we expand understanding and addressing your child’s needs, fostering resilience, and promoting positive development
We go beyond talk therapy, using interactive methods (e.g., LEGO) and a relationship-based approach. I have worked in the mental health field for over a decade, and as a proud queer social worker & clinical counsellor you’ll find a welcoming space where all identities are celebrated.
For children & families facing challenges (e.g., navigating neurodivergence, trauma survivor, oncology patients, etc.), I create a nurturing environment through play. I am an Autism Funding Unit (AFU) and First Nations Health Authority provider.
Therapy is more than healing; it’s about finding joy, understanding, empowerment and meaning in your life. Here, you’ll notice how EMDR & play are incredible tools for healing. Curious? Schedule a chat and let’s see if this approach is the right fit for you.
