Lisa McManus

Social Worker, mom of three teens & forever chasing her next travel adventure

 

Lisa is the kind of therapist who makes you feel like you’ve known her forever — grounded, deeply present, and genuinely invested in your story.

 

She creates a space where you can show up exactly as you are, knowing you’ll be met with empathy, honesty, and just the right amount of humour.

Before becoming a social worker, Lisa spent years as a Life Coach, helping people navigate life’s twists and turns. That experience sparked her love of walking alongside others through big transitions — whether that’s parenting challenges, shifting relationships, perimenopause and life transitions, or simply figuring out what’s next.

With three teenagers of her own and a few life chapters under her belt, Lisa gets what it means to juggle family, career, identity, and everything in between. She’s especially passionate about supporting parents, individuals navigating anxiety, ADHD, perfectionism, relationship stress, and women moving through the wild ride of perimenopause.

Lisa brings a blend of concrete tools, evidence-based strategies, and the kind of wisdom that only comes from lived experience (plus a healthy dose of humour when it’s needed most).

Working with Lisa feels like sitting down with an old friend — one who really sees you and helps you make sense of it all.
