Lisa is a Registered Psychologist with the College of Health and Care Professionals of BC, the College of Alberta Psychologists, and has a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology.

​

Lisa’s assessments are comprehensive, strengths-based, and intended to provide helpful, clear recommendations from a holistic lens. She has worked in private practice and with the public sector, with 10 years of experience in therapy and psychology.

 

Lisa offers psychoeducational assessments and has specific training with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) assessment tools.

 

In her counselling practice, Lisa holds a special interest in working with Indigenous and 2SLGBTQ+ clients and those navigating complex trauma and personality disorders. Lisa is also an instructor at St. Stephen’s College at the University of Alberta and is part of the Trans Affirming Network. She’s currently working on her doctoral degree.
