*Not currently accepting psychotherapy clients
Elisa Makadi is a Registered Psychotherapist and Clinical Supervisor working with youth and adult individuals, and the owner of Levity Counselling Services. She obtained her Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology from the University of Ottawa, where she focused her research on self-compassion and mindfulness for those experiencing social anxiety disorder. She loved providing therapy to university students while completing her Masters, and still continues to enjoy working with this age range.
Elisa describes her work as helping people learn what the heck their brain is doing and finding ways to hold their “stuff” differently. Past clients have commented on her authenticity and humour, and how these traits help them feel safe enough to do deep work.
You can expect therapy with Elisa to be gentle and at your own pace. She particularly enjoys long-term therapy work focused on fostering a harmonious relationship with yourself. We will discuss your early life experiences, the parts of you that make you who you are, and ways of relating to yourself in more helpful, kind ways.
