As a counsellor, life coach and ADHD specialist, I draw on extensive experience to customize treatment that address each client’s mental, emotional, spiritual, relational and social needs. Unlike many counsellors who only focus on life issues, my expertise in life coaching is an additional specialty that benefits clients. My proven counselling techniques and practical life coaching tools provide quick results and equip clients with the know-how to self-manage their lives more effectively. I found that the majority of people need life skills training, whether it’s dealing with stress, anger or looking to improve their relationships.

Hello! I'm Anna Lukomsky (she/her), a registered social worker and trauma therapist with over 15 years of experience helping individuals navigate their mental health challenges. Throughout treatment I emphasize safety above all else; guiding people to learn to feel safe in their lives, in their bodies and in sessions with me. I create a supportive environment that fosters personal growth through warmth, humour, compassion, and gentle patience; letting clients set a pace that works best for them; from the very start showing them they have everything they need to heal already within them, waiting to be acknowledged and seen.

Feeling overwhelmed by all that’s happening around you can lead to burnout as you try to take care of everything and everyone. You may be a queer recent grad stepping into a new job or exploring a new relationship and as much as you’re excited about these changes, there's a disconnect between your wants and needs. Or you may be a mom who feels guilty or ashamed for not doing or being enough, which is starting to show up in ways that are hurting you and those you care most about. If you are someone feeling stuck in patterns of resentment or disappointment, I am here to support you in bringing more balance and joy back into your life.

When your past lives on, you aren’t being fair to your future! You may feel like you are reliving the same old story and stuck in a repetitive pattern of negative thoughts, behaviour, and emotions with no way out. As a therapist, I walk with you to revisit these old stories and guide you to change this pattern. We will have an open conversation where you bring the knowledge of your life and I bring the knowledge of how a change can happen. My experience as a therapist has taught me that people need to be understood in an open, nonjudgmental, supportive and nurturing environment. Part of my job is to provide this environment.
