Lindsay Parkinson

My communication style

I create a light atmosphere, allowing for safe emotional spaces to talk about your most vulnerable feelings. I speak in a natural tone that matches where you're at, without bringing too much clinical language unless there's interest. I believe it's important to experience groundedness before touching on trauma or painful memories.

My journey to mental healthcare

I've always felt called to support others, and I bring empathy, cultural awareness, and compassion to my work. Through art and talk therapy, I've supported clients facing depression, anxiety, grief, family conflict, identity exploration, and major life transitions.

My goals for you

Therapeutic goals need to be discussed and agreed upon in therapy. The goals you want to prioritize are the goals I will prioritize with you, checking in on progress on a regular basis.

Our first session

I begin by introducing myself and my approach, highlighting your existing strengths, goals, and resources. I address any questions from the assessment process and establish a pace that feels appropriate before moving into deeper work. While some initial anxiety is natural, my focus is on creating a safe and supportive environment.
