Liz Toth, MA, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)

I am Liz: curious, compassionate, and striving to find joy in the little things.

Liz uses a relational style in therapy, meaning that she honours you as the expert of your experience. She centres the therapeutic relationship as a trusting and non-judgemental place to bring change. As this is your therapy, and connectedness is important, feedback and honest conversations about how you feel within sessions is encouraged and considered a gift. To Liz, building trust ensures that you feel safe and comfortable being vulnerable.

Liz’s main specialties:

  • Anxiety

  • Depression

  • Personal Relationship Issues (managing manipulative, narcissistic, and abusive relationships)

  • Self-Growth including self-esteem, self-confidence

  • Grief

  • Managing Emotions

In addition to Liz’s specialties, you will find that her ability to connect with clients through genuine compassion and empathy are just one of her special strengths in helping clients get to where they want to be. For interested clients, Liz can bring a spiritual element into your psychotherapy sessions to aid in your psychotherapy journey.
