$0.00

Therapist specializing in children’s therapy, play therapy and autism specialist. 

"Your child can thrive, with the right support."

Your child is overwhelmed by big emotions, and traditional approaches aren't working. Whether they're neurodivergent, struggling with anxiety, or having behavioral challenges, you want someone who truly understands how they experience the world.

Watching your child struggle with emotional regulation, developmental differences, or autism-related challenges can feel isolating. You're doing your best, but you need someone with expertise who can help your child build the skills to thrive. As Donald Winnicott said, "It is in playing and only in playing that the individual child or adult is able to be creative and to use the whole personality."

With over 10 years of clinical experience as a researcher, play therapist, early childhood educator, clinical psychologist, and behavioral coach, Hadis brings comprehensive expertise to supporting neurodivergent children and their families. She understands ASD, ADHD, developmental delays, anxiety, trauma, and emotional regulation challenges.

Hadis specializes in early childhood through adolescence, using child-centered and play-based approaches to create a safe, nurturing space where children can express themselves, build emotional resilience, and grow through therapeutic connection. She also supports parents through early childhood concerns like sleep, behavior, and developmental milestones.

Known for her warm, collaborative style, Hadis works with your child to build emotional tools and with you to feel confident and empowered in your parenting. She offers practical strategies and deep respect for the unique strengths within every family.

Ready to help your child build resilience and emotional skills? Contact InnerWorks Counselling today to take the first step with Hadis. InnerWorks offers services in person in our Lambeth (London, Ontario) office, and online for clients across Ontario.

Frequently Asked Question

  • Neurodivergent-affirming therapy honors how your child's brain works rather than trying to make them fit neurotypical expectations. Hadis focuses on building on your child's strengths, teaching regulation skills that work for their nervous system, and helping them thrive as their authentic selves. Play-based approaches are especially effective because they meet children where they are developmentally.

  • Play therapy for autistic children focuses on building communication skills, emotional regulation, social understanding, and coping strategies, all through play, which is a child's natural language. Hadis adapts play therapy techniques to honor your child's sensory needs, communication style, and interests, making therapy both effective and enjoyable.

  • Hadis works with children from early childhood through adolescence. Her extensive background includes early childhood education, so she's experienced with very young children, as well as older children and teens navigating more complex developmental and emotional challenges.

  • Absolutely! Hadis believes parents are crucial partners in therapy. She'll teach you practical strategies for supporting your child's emotional regulation, managing challenging behaviors, and fostering their development between sessions. You'll feel more confident and empowered in your parenting.

  • While Hadis can identify areas of concern and provide therapeutic support, formal diagnostic assessments for developmental delays or autism are typically conducted by psychologists or developmental pediatricians. Hadis can help connect you with appropriate assessment resources if needed and provide therapy and strategies regardless of diagnostic status.
