Hi, I'm Lydia Kienge
I am a Registered Psychotherapist with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario, dedicated to providing a confidential and supportive environment where clients can engage in meaningful healing. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and Communications from Carleton University and a Master’s degree in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University, which have equipped me with the knowledge and expertise to deliver effective therapeutic care.
​
My approach is grounded in trauma-informed, emotionally-focused, anti-oppressive, person-centred, and feminist frameworks, allowing me to offer a comprehensive and inclusive service that addresses the unique needs of each client. I also incorporate creativity, mindfulness, and self-compassion into my practice to empower clients in recognizing their strengths and resilience, while supporting the development of adaptive coping strategies.

I'm absolutely thrilled to be able to support you on your journey towards growth and restoration. Whether you're struggling with depression, anxiety, social isolation, loneliness, lack confidence, self-esteem issues, burnout, or any other challenges, I'm here to help! I also specialize in providing support for individuals processing relationship issues with partners, family, friends, and with themselves. It takes great strength to reach out for help and begin the therapy process, and I'm honored that you want to go on this journey with me! Let's work together to achieve your goals!
