Meet
Lara Williston, RP (Q)
Psychotherapist (qualifying), massage therapist & animal lover
Calm, compassionate and completely in your corner - Lara is your steady ally as you navigate the path toward mental well-being.
She knows that asking for support isn’t always easy, and she’s here to make sure you never feel like you’re doing it alone. With a warm presence and a grounded, body-based approach, Lara creates a space where you can exhale, show up as you are, and begin to move toward healing - one step at a time.
Lara’s work is rooted in somatic and attachment-based practices, honouring both the wisdom of the body and the power of human connection. Whether you're navigating anxiety, emotional regulation, relational trauma, or the complexities of neurodivergence, Lara meets you with curiosity, care, and acceptance.
She works with individuals across all ages and stages — from little ones to grown-ups, couples and families - always tuning in, holding space, and gently guiding you back to your own strength.
She has a special place in her heart (and practice) for children and youth. Her playful, down-to-earth vibe helps kids feel seen and at ease, and teens find her easy to talk to. Whether it’s big feelings, tricky transitions, or family dynamics, Lara meets her clients where they’re at - with humour, empathy, and a grounded presence that helps them feel understood and at ease. She works closely with parents and caregivers too, offering guidance and support so the whole family can move forward together.
