I offer treatment intensives and day retreats. Depression, anxiety relationship concerns are often symptoms of trauma and we can explore healing further with EMDR and somatic therapies. I also support individuals and their family members struggling with stress, behaviour problems, communication difficulties, marital concerns, and co-parenting issues after separation and divorce. often a little help can change the direction to a more positive one.

I specialize in providing Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), which helps individuals become aware of negative thought patterns and behaviours. This approach helps to increase feelings of confidence, and positive thinking. CBT paired with Mindfulness allows for clients to become aquatinted with their thoughts, and moods, while simultaneously developing a new relationship with them. This approach can benefit those who suffer form depression, anxiety, other mood disorders, anger issues or anyone who desires to have a stronger sense of happiness in their daily life. The approach can be modified for all ages and cognitive abilities.

My background is in systems theory; the idea that everyone is connected to those around them, with influence between all those people, organizations, and cultures. My approach to therapy is primarily Cognitive Behavioral Therapy but I also see a need for insight into the meaning that we make/have made of things and how that impacts our present. Therapy then, involves opening space for a person to increase awareness of their own process and to see alternative perspectives, thereby empowered to make different life decisions. It is so exciting to see someone realize that they have the power to change their perspective and their life!

My goal is to connect with you in a safe, nonjudgmental environment. I work collaboratively with my clients towards finding relief and life changing solutions, recognizing that people have power and strength within them. Whether it's problematic relationships, parenting support, stress, family dynamics, mental health issues or trauma that is impacting your life, I have seen over and over that change can happen. I offer a warm approach to therapy and welcome any struggle, small or large. Although I work with a variety of adult clients I am known for easily connecting with children and adolescents.

For the past 14 years, I have worked and trained in a variety of settings, including children's mental health facilities, schools, hospitals, and private practice. I have enjoyed the rewarding challenges of treating children, adolescents and adults who are struggling with ADHD, autism, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, gender identity issues, personality disorders, substance abuse issues, anger management issues, low self-esteem, and social skills deficits.

Through strong alliances with my clients I believe that helping them recognize their strengths and develop options is key to resuming personal competency and wellbeing in their lives and relationships. My skill in brief focused therapy enables resolution of most concerns within 3-7 sessions. I have developed expertise in organizing highly distressed individuals in crisis situations and in treating trauma. I have experience in successfully resolving symptoms by helping clients develop a positive connection to their emotional world. I have specialized training in the area of marriage and family therapy. I bring to my work passion, commitment, focused skill and professionalism.

I collaborate with clients to help them pursue healing, growth, and change in their lives. I support clients as they work through trauma due to present and past events, and to form meaning and purpose moving forward. I combine EMDR, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and play therapy, depending on clients' needs. I offer family mediation for those experiencing separation or divorce, to improve communication and build a path forward. I work with individuals, couples, and children. My hope is that clients achieve personal goals, connectedness, resolution, and the ability to face life head on.

You’re feeling burnt out, on edge and depleted to the point where you don’t know how to stop feeling this way. You feel disconnected from the things that made you the best version of yourself. You may not be sure who that is anymore. You might find coping skills and strategies that used to be effective are no longer working. You are less able to juggle what you were once easily capable of and you feel frustrated. Cumulative stress can take a significant toll on even the strongest and most motivated individuals. When there are too many stressors over a period of time without sufficient relief, even small things feel overwhelming.

Hello! I am a Registered Provisional Psychologist with several years of experience in the mental health field. I currently work with adults, teens and children. I believe that strength is a characteristic that resides in all people. It can however, be difficult to see during times of hardship and vulnerability. I am committed to providing a non-judgemental safe space, in which clients feel empowered to make the positive changes needed to live healthy fulfilled lives.

Life is a journey and at times it can be complicated and messy. It might be that your child is struggling, your family has difficulty getting along, or it's you who needs support with the day to day stressors. We can help, things can change and you have already taken the first step.

I have over 15 years working with children, youth, and parents. My practice includes a collaborative and holistic approach to address issues of anxiety, depression, ADHD, behvaiour concerns, emotional regulation, and attachment. I use a variety of therapy techniques to best fit each client/family.

I'm Dr. Lisa Pascal and I'm a child psychologist who specializes in the treatment of moderate to severe mental health challenges including OCD, anxiety disorders, and challenging behaviours. Having suffered from anxiety, perfectionism, and obsessive compulsive behaviours myself, I understand the toll mental health challenges can take. Luckily I came across acceptance and commitment therapy and my whole life changed! Now I'm super passionate about helping children and teens live a meaningful life using these techniques. Although my passion is working with youth, I believe parents play a large role in the treatment process too.

I recognize that these can be trying times and that it can be difficult to reach out for support. As a result, I take care in ensuring that families feel safe, comfortable, and connected by providing a warm and empathic therapeutic environment. I specialize in clinical psychology and provide treatment to children, adolescents, and young adults. I work primarily from a cognitive-behavioural lens and integrate other evidence-based treatments into my practice to meet the needs of each individual client and family. I have training in attachment-based interventions and offer parent support for those who may feel stuck or overwhelmed.
