1/3 Emotional Manifestor | Libra I Registered O.T.
Clinical Foundation. Human Presence.
I don't look at you or your child as a problem to be fixed, and I don't believe in bad habits. I am simply here to walk with you when you're ready to look beneath the surface, trust your gut, and rewrite your family story.
Bridging Science and Spirituality
For over two decades, I have worked as a registered paediatric Occupational Therapist (O.T.). My practice is evidence and strengths-based, rooted in relational neurobiology and trauma-sensitive care. At its very core, Occupational Therapy has always been about spirituality, meaning, and purpose—helping individuals connect to what matters most. I operate as a behaviour detective, but I don't look at individuals through a rigid clinical lens. My work is built entirely on seeing the whole person, validating their strengths, and understanding the unique nuances and heart of every family.
Whether a family is navigating a formal diagnosis or simply trying to understand a highly sensitive child's unique wiring, I get in there with you to support everyday life, practical coping, and real-world skills.
This is where the science meets the deeper, spiritual side of my work. Alongside my clinical background, I rely on my deep intuition, my decades of experience, and a quiet, clear inner knowing to read the reality of what is happening in a room. I use tools like Human Design to help us look beneath the surface and understand how your family naturally interacts.
My work is anchored in essentialism, deep rest, and restoring your own internal agency. I help you cut through the loud cultural noise of "constant doing." When you sit with me, you are stepping into a quiet, completely safe place where we can look at the bigger picture together, free of judgment.
The Journey Behind the Work
From her early years as a sensitive child to traveling through Southeast Asia, Nepal, and India, Lynne's path eventually led her into clinical paediatric treatment. Personal challenges—including navigating infertility, her husband's stage 4 cancer diagnosis during her third pregnancy, a wrongful dismissal lawsuit, postpartum depression, and supporting her eldest daughter's nervous system regulation—deeply shaped her perspective. She expanded her traditional training to include birth doula work, grief studies, Wilderness Walk training, shadow coaching, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT tapping) and Human Design.
The Perspectives I Bring
to Our Sessions
I maintain a high standard in everything I do. I am here to serve those who learn best from stories—the highly conscious parents, therapists, and educators who are actively working through their own blindspots. When we sit together, I take a birds-eye view of your life. I scan the field to see what is missing, look for the hidden stories and ask: What is the most essential piece right here?
I have the rare capacity to sit with you when there are absolutely no guarantees, helping you re-orient so you can find your way forward:
-
I am a mother, a paediatric Occupational Therapist (O.T.), and a guide here to help you get back into the present moment.
My message is simple: be present and live a life with no regrets. Life is short. Facing the reality of my husband’s stage 4 cancer diagnosis taught me that we cannot find safety by trying to control the timeline, but we can completely choose how we show up for the moments we are given. -
I believe that true healing happens when we let go of the pressure to control every variable and instead learn to trust our own path.
I believe family life is a living connection, and that our deepest work is to help parents see and hold the highest frequency of their children through all the chaotic ups and downs.
I believe that our children—whether they are our clients, our students, or our own flesh and blood—are our mirrors. They teach us so much about ourselves, if we are simply curious and open. True strength isn't found in a rigid plan; it's found in learning to trust your own gut. -
I have a deep capacity to walk alongside with you, holding space for your deepest thoughts and emotions without judgment and without running away from it.
Everything I teach has been tested in the fires of my own life—through infertility, pregnancy losses, medical crises, and packing up our lives to move across the country from Toronto to British Columbia using astro-cartography to align our lifestyle with our values.
I know the massive influence a healthcare professional can have. We encountered practitioners who were rigidly black-and-white, who spoke from judgment, and who recoiled from our grief. I have built my practice to be the person who sits with your reality and helps you move through it. -
I remember the unkind words left behind by others and yourself—and I know how to help you heal them.
I know the power of the shadow side: the tendency for caring, sensitive people to blame themselves for everything that goes wrong in their lives.
Through deep shadow work and emotional release, I guide you to be softer, kinder, and gentler with yourself.
Together, we untangle the false guilt, dissolve the pressure to fit into a box, and practice the necessary art of surrender so you can finally feel okay in your own skin.

the impact of working together
Our conversations cannot change your immediate physical circumstances. They won’t erase a hard diagnosis, undo a complex life transition, or magically fix a heavy season.
But they do help you drop out of survival mode.
When we work together, you find a steady space to slow down, catch your breath, and realize you are no longer carrying the weight entirely alone. Real shifts happen not because we rush to “fix” your life, but because you are supported to see the bigger picture, trust your gut, and take small, intentional, and completely doable steps forward.
