About Aaron
Every child deserves to be understood.
Maybe your child has been having big feelings, shutting down, becoming anxious, or acting in ways you don't quite understand.
Maybe you've tried talking, explaining, comforting — and you're still wondering:
“What does my child need from me?”
Or perhaps you're the one who has been holding everything together, but underneath, you feel overwhelmed, stuck, or simply tired.
You don't need to have everything figured out before coming to therapy.
Hi, I'm Aaron.
I'm a Registered Canadian Art Therapist (RCAT) with a background in social work, child development and early childhood education.
For more than 10 years, I've worked alongside children, adults and families through difficult emotions, relationships and life experiences.
What I've learned is that sometimes words aren't enough.
A child might show us how they feel through behaviour.
An adult might know something feels wrong, but struggle to explain it.
Art gives us another way in.
A space to slow down and be understood.
In our sessions, there is no pressure to create “good art” or know what to say.
We can draw, create, play, talk — or simply take some time to settle in.
I pay attention to what is happening beneath the surface, while helping you or your child feel safe enough to explore it.
With children, I also believe supporting the relationship around the child matters. When helpful, I work with parents and caregivers to better understand their child's emotions, behaviour and ways of communicating.
The goal isn't to create a perfect child or a perfect parent.
It's to help things feel a little more understandable, a little more connected, and a little less overwhelming.

Seeing Through the Grey
Sometimes what we see on the outside isn't the whole story.
Behind anger may be overwhelm.
Behind silence may be something difficult to express.
Behind behaviour may be a child trying to communicate.
My work begins with curiosity — not judgment.
Together, we can slow things down, understand what is underneath, and find another way forward.
