1. Can Lydia help with anxiety, overthinking, or perfectionism?

Support for anxiety, overthinking, and perfectionism.

Yes. Anxiety is one of the most common concerns Lydia has worked with. She supports people dealing with general and social anxiety, perfectionism, people-pleasing, self-criticism, and the exhausting mental loops that can make it hard to relax or feel confident in your decisions.

2. Does Lydia work with couples?

Support for communication, connection, and relationship repair.

Yes. Lydia works with couples dealing with communication difficulties, repeated conflict, emotional disconnection, trust concerns, infidelity, intimacy issues, and other relationship stress. Her couples work is informed especially by Emotionally Focused Therapy and the Gottman Method.

3. Can Lydia help with depression or feeling emotionally overwhelmed?

Support for depression, overwhelm, and difficult emotions.

Absolutely. Lydia works with people experiencing depression, low self-worth, emotional dysregulation, anger, shame, guilt, loneliness, or simply feeling stuck and unlike themselves. Therapy can help make sense of what is happening while building more effective ways to cope and respond.

4. Can Lydia help with alcohol or substance use concerns?

Nonjudgmental support for alcohol and substance use.

Yes. Lydia is comfortable working with mild alcohol and substance-use concerns and also has hands-on experience through her work at the Detox Centre at Hotel Dieu. Her approach is practical and nonjudgmental, with attention to what the substance or behaviour may be doing for you as well as what you want to change.

5. Will Lydia just listen, or will she give me practical tools too?

Insight paired with practical tools you can actually use.

Lydia sees therapy as a collaborative process. She listens closely and helps clients understand patterns, but she also draws heavily from CBT and DBT, which means sessions can include concrete skills, strategies, and ways of responding differently between appointments.

6. Is Lydia a good fit if I am struggling with relationships, boundaries, or people-pleasing?

Help with boundaries, relationships, and finding your voice.

Very often, yes. Lydia works with relationship concerns both individually and with couples, including communication, conflict, attachment patterns, boundaries, people-pleasing, trust, emotional intimacy, family stress, and difficulty speaking up for yourself.

7. Does Lydia offer evening or weekend appointments?

Daytime, evening, and weekend appointments may be available.

Yes. Lydia has daytime, evening, and weekend availability, which can make therapy easier to fit around work, school, family responsibilities, or other busy schedules. Availability changes as her caseload fills, so the admin team can let you know what is currently open.
