When I was young, I wanted to be a writer. I went into journalism and that’s where I figured out why I was so obsessed with stories. True stories heal us. I have spent the last 30 years, both personally and professionally, in the field of addiction. I became increasingly sad as I witnessed the suffering that goes along with substance abuse and behavioural addictions. I learned as a volunteer and mentor that helping people uncover their true story also creates healing. So, I went to Yorkville University and obtained a master’s degree in counselling psychology.

Do you feel stressed, anxious or have ADHD, AuDHD, autism or low mood? Are you a child, teen, post-secondary student or young adult that feels like everyone else seems to have the answers but you feel lost? Do you have a quirky personality? Are you tired of not being able to control your anxiety or emotions? Do you struggle with conflict or with making friends? It can be really scary navigating these issues but there is hope. If you struggle with anxiety, social anxiety, self-esteem, ADHD, autism, organization, studying issues, relationship issues (including peers), reach out today.

Here’s what I do to help. I integrate key therapeutic principles drawing on a wide range of psychodynamic, cognitive behavior and dialectical behavior modalities, in which I invite you to sit down with me in a relaxed, safe, informal way, and talk. If you've never been in psychotherapy, it can be hard to believe that "just talking" can be helpful. But if you’re depressed, anxious and feeling bad about yourself, you can be profoundly helped by an in-depth conversation in which you come to create greater self-understanding, discover insights and meanings, recognize patterns, and explore options and skills.

Hi, My name is Lisa and I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) in Ontario. I completed my Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology through Yorkville University. I believe everyone can benefit from talking about life’s triumphs and challenges. Therapy can be a wonderful option, no matter the level of need. To maintain normalcy, control, and comfort in one’s life or to work through some of life's most difficult experiences. Early childhood development is also very important, and I enjoy helping families develop positive, supportive relationships with their children and their partners.
