Andrea Thrift

I provide therapy for children (4+), teens, adults & families who have experienced struggles with, ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), trauma, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), school avoidance, parenting, anxiety, social anxiety, depression, panic attacks, confidence and self-esteem. I also work with perinatal and postpartum.

My hope in individual therapy and  family therapy is to help you and your family find relief from your suffering and feel empowered to make a change in your life. I believe we all have our own journey, and that healing can look different for everyone. I will hear your story, connect with you and collaborate with you to live a healthier and more peaceful life. You will be heard without judgement and I will work with you and your family from a curious standpoint to help you transform, heal and live the life you want.

I have over 15 years of experience working with families and young people. My counselling process is warm, strength based, collaborative and without judgement. We are all unique individuals & families and I may draw from various therapies including Play Therapy, Emotionally Focused Family Therapy (EFFT), Solution Focused Therapy (SFT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to best fit your individual and family needs.
I offer one-on-one support. I support children, teens, and families with ADHD, neurodiversity, Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), trauma, oppositional behaviour, school avoidance, parenting, anxiety, social anxiety, depression, panic attacks, confidence and self-esteem. I also have a specialized interest in working with Perinatal and Postpartum.

I understand how hard it can be to find the right therapist for you, your child or family. I offer a 15min no fee consultation to ensure it is a good fit. If it is not I encourage you to have consultations with others on the team to find the right fit for you.
Therapy can have a lasting positive effect on how we show up in the world, for ourselves and for the people around us.

As a Child & Family Therapist, my areas of focus include:

Parenting Support | ADHD | ASD | Trauma | School Avoidance | Self-Esteem | OCD | Panic Attacks | Communication | Perinatal & Postpartum Confidence | Social Anxiety | Depression | Anxiety | First Responders & Veterans | Healthcare Providers

If you’re ready to get started, I offer a 15-min consult to see if we are a good fit or you can book a full initial appointment.
