Supporting teens and young adults through emotional challenges, risk-taking behaviours, and healing

Leighton is a warm and grounded psychologist who works with teens and young adults, with a particular passion for supporting youth navigating high-risk behaviours, addictive patterns, and intense emotional struggles.

She also supports youth and young adults working through relationship trauma, attachment wounds, and challenges with self-worth.

Using a thoughtful blend of CBT, DBT, ACT, and solution-focused strategies, Leighton helps clients better understand themselves, develop emotional regulation tools, and create meaningful change in their lives. She brings steadiness and compassion to her work—meeting each client exactly where they are at. .

Leighton offers in-person and online sessions, and is committed to walking alongside teens and young adults as they build resilience, insight, and a stronger sense of self.
