ABOUT LAH
Meet Lindsey Hutchings, BScN,
RN Psychotherapist
At LAH Counselling, I’m dedicated to transforming mental health care in Ontario. As a Registered Nurse Psychotherapist, my journey began in 2014 when I realized there’s no health without mental health. With a background in nursing and psychotherapy, I opened LAH Counselling & Psychotherapy in 2022 to provide accessible online therapy for women, parents, and communities across Ontario. My practice specializes in helping moms heal from trauma, break cycles of self-sacrifice, and build skills like assertiveness and emotional regulation, though my approach empowers everyone to navigate life’s challenges with resilience and grace.

My Journey in Mental Health
With over a decade of experience, I started as a resource nurse at a leading mental health center, later transitioning to telemedicine during the 2021 lockdowns. Witnessing the barriers to mental health care inspired me to open my private practice. My passion lies in offering virtual therapy in Ontario, particularly for those in rural and underserved areas, ensuring compassionate, evidence-based support for all.

Our Mission
LAH Counselling is committed to providing accessible mental health services across Ontario. I offer a safe, welcoming space to heal from anxiety, trauma, PTSD, and relationship challenges, using techniques informed by CBT, DBT, ACT, somatic experiencing, and parts work. As a Non-Insured Health Benefits (NIHB) provider, I proudly serve Indigenous clients with culturally sensitive care and direct billing. My services support diverse groups, including college students, parents, and older adults, fostering resilience and self-awareness through virtual counselling and wellness workshops.
Holistic Approach to Healing
My practice integrates evidence-based therapy with a focus on nurturing mind, body, and spirit. I help clients reconnect with their authentic selves, process emotions, and develop practical skills for lasting change. My upcoming self-directed online mental health courses will complement therapy, offering tools for emotional regulation, relationship building, and stress management, accessible globally with a focus on Ontario’s needs.
