Lisa has been providing compassionate and evidence-based counselling support to individuals since
2015. She believes that everyone is capable of finding joy and meaning in their lives, and strives to work

Lisa specializes in perinatal mental health, recognizing the tremendous impact of pregnancy, birth, and
the postpartum period on parents. She works with mothers, fathers, and non-binary parents to manage
perinatal mental health concerns including low mood, anxiety, and trauma, and helps them find health,
well-being, and meaning in parenthood.
Lisa also works with people outside of the perinatal period who are struggling with stress, anxiety, low
mood, depression, trauma, challenging relationships, and more. She helps clients to overcome
challenges, find purpose, and form habits to support their mental health. She integrates aspects of
evidence-based psychotherapeutic approaches into her work, including Acceptance and Commitment
Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and mindfulness. Lisa practices with a trauma-
informed lens and aims to provide inclusive care to all.

friends. She is a proud mom of two.
