Find a therapist you
actually feel good about

I am currently completing my clinical residency at Yorkville University via True Self Counselling. I practice under supervision of a highly experienced therapist, and am scheduled to graduate in May 2026. I specialize in working with people who feel wired differently - highly sensitive, gifted, neurodiverse, or twice/thrice exceptional. You may see the world in ways others can’t, yet find yourself overwhelmed by sensory overload in a world that’s too loud. Therapy can help you honour your unique wiring, manage challenges, and create a life that truly fits.

Lia is a Registered Social Worker, Psychotherapist who supports individuals facing anxiety/depression, life transitions, parenting challenges, trauma and attachment difficulties. Whether you’re having trouble managing stress, understanding your emotions and behaviours, or want to develop coping skills, it is helpful to have a sounding board to support you. She provides a non-judgemental space to explore how your past experiences have influenced your current ways of coping. Through this process, she can assist you in developing new strategies to manage complex thoughts and feelings. Lia works from a trauma-informed, collaborative perspective to help you make the changes you want to make in your life

I offer therapy for adults who feel stuck in patterns with food, their bodies, or their relationships with themselves. Many of the people I work with are thoughtful and self-aware, yet still find themselves caught in cycles of emotional eating, body dissatisfaction, or feeling like they’re “never quite enough.” You might understand the why of your struggles, but still feel pulled back into the same patterns—and that can be frustrating and exhausting. My approach to therapy goes beyond surface-level strategies. Together, we’ll take the time to understand the underlying patterns that are shaping your experience—often rooted in earlier relationships, life transitions, or ways you’ve learned to cope. I draw from a relational, psychodynamic lens as well as Internal Family Systems (IFS), which helps us gently explore the different “parts” of you—like the part that criticizes, the part that copes through food, or the part that feels overwhelmed. I work from a weight-inclusive, non-diet perspective, meaning we won’t focus on changing your body. Instead, we’ll work toward building a more compassionate and sustainable relationship with food, your body, and yourself. I also support clients navigating major life transitions, including the shift into motherhood. Returning to work, changes in identity, and the emotional complexity of this stage can bring up feelings that are hard to make sense of alone. Therapy with me is collaborative and paced in a way that feels manageable. You don’t have to have everything figured out before you begin—we’ll make sense of things together.

I specialize in helping young adults with CPTSD symptoms like low self-worth, depression, substance misuse, and neglect. Honestly – everybody needs to be empathetically challenged. To see if we’re a fit, email me for a free 15-min consultation :).
