Karin Lawless, M.C.
Registered Provisional Psychologist
“Every story we tell ourselves is a reflection of the resilience and a pathway to re-authoring our lives.”
-Michael White
Welcome! I'm Karin, a registered provisional psychologist and I'm dedicated to supporting individuals and families in navigating life's complexities. My approach is deeply rooted in collaboration and empathy, reflecting a commitment to meet you wherever you are on your journey. I aim to understand the significance of your cultural experiences, ensuring a holistic and inclusive approach to therapy, and offering a safe space for exploration and growth.
I have experience addressing concerns such as ADHD, anxiety, depression, life transitions, self-esteem, trauma, stress, relationship issues, and grief. I don't believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. Instead, I tailor interventions to suit your needs, employing evidence-based practices while valuing ongoing learning and refinement.
My aim is to provide a supportive environment where children (8+), adults, and families can foster healthier dynamics and feel heard, respected, and empowered to embark on their journey toward healing and self-discovery. Together, we'll work towards crafting a narrative that honours your strengths and aspirations, fostering resilience and well-being.
I invite you for a 15-minute free consultation to ensure we are a good fit to embark on this journey together. I look forward to hearing from you!

A few things about me:
I love movies, TV shows, and books, anything with a good, cozy story.
Walking is my favourite form of movement, especially if it takes place in a forest or the mountains.
Though I have a wonderful husband, my cat is the true love of my life.
I have recently started dabbling in a yoga practice and am amazed by its benefits!
