Nicky Lightstone (she/her), Registered Psychotherapist

I provide an authentic, compassionate, collaborative and judgement-free space, which fosters feelings of connection, support and emotional safety with clients as they embark on their life changing therapeutic journey. Practicing from a lens of personal autonomy and respect, social and cultural safety, and anti-oppression, I strive to provide clients with unconditional kindness, and advocate for them inside and outside of the therapy room.

My Approach

I practice from a humanistic approach, seeing the people I work with as the experts in their own lives and offering each client a therapeutic experience that is unique to them, their needs and personal goals. Interweaving evidence-based behavioural approaches, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), I aim to provide clients both with the opportunity to process thoughts, feelings and experiences, in addition to equipping them with accessible and applicable coping mechanisms they can use outside of the therapy room.

My Challenge

I’m a chronic procrastinator! Diagnosed with ADHD at 37 and currently looking at different ways to manage lifelong symptoms.

My Superpower

Ongoing desire for personal and professional growth – always looking to learn about new topics, skills and hobbies.

My Personality


Campaigner (ENFP-A/ENFP-T)

I’ve been told I have a boisterous laugh and warm smile. I show up authentically in my own life and that extends to my time with clients; creating an environment of comfort, ease and connectedness. I tend to be extroverted and talkative, quick to laugh but adept at active listening and sitting comfortably in silence. My intuitive and empathic nature allows me to read a room and adapt appropriately. I am fiercely loyal in my personal and professional life, regularly advocating and volunteering for causes and clients alike.

My Passion

  • Dogs
  • Nature and the outdoors
  • Advocacy
  • Accessible and equitable mental health access for all Canadians
  • Safe drug supply and safe injection sites
  • Safe and accessible housing for all
