Assessments
​We offer comprehensive diagnostic assessments designed to clarify your unique strengths, challenges, and treatment needs. Our assessment services include psychoeducational assessments, simple psychodiagnostic assessments, and Autism Spectrum Disorder assessments, all conducted with a compassionate, evidence‑based approach to support your next steps in learning, work, and wellbeing.
​
Comprehensive Diagnostic Assessments
We offer comprehensive diagnostic assessments to help you understand how your mind, emotions, and learning style are working together. Whether you’re seeking clarity about a diagnosis, support at school or work, or next steps in treatment, our assessments provide an evidence‑based foundation for your care plan.​
​
Psychoeducational Assessments
Psychoeducational assessments help identify learning strengths and challenges, including potential learning disabilities, ADHD, or other cognitive factors that may be affecting school or work performance. We use standardized tools alongside clinical interviews to understand how you process information, focus, and organize tasks, and then provide tailored recommendations for academic or workplace accommodations and supports.
​
Simple Psychodiagnostic Assessments
Simple psychodiagnostic assessments are designed to clarify common mental health concerns such as anxiety, depression, mood disorders, or adjustment difficulties. These assessments involve structured interviews and brief standardized measures to help confirm or rule out a diagnosis, inform treatment planning, and guide whether you may benefit from therapy, medication, or both.
​
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) Assessments
Our Autism Spectrum Disorder assessments are thorough evaluations that explore social communication, sensory experiences, and patterns of behaviour associated with autism. Using a combination of clinical interviews, standardized tools, and collateral information (e.g., school or work feedback), we help determine whether ASD is present and provide clear guidance on supports, accommodations, and next steps across school, work, and relationships.
Talk Therapy
Talk therapy at Lusana offers a safe, non‑judgmental space to explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences while building practical tools for everyday life. Our clinicians use evidence‑based, trauma‑informed approaches to help reduce anxiety, heal painful patterns, improve relationships, and strengthen your emotional resilience.
​
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
CBT helps you identify unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviours that contribute to anxiety, depression, or stress, and then replace them with more balanced, constructive ways of responding. In CBT‑based sessions, you’ll work on specific skills such as thought challenging, problem‑solving, and behavioural experiments to create lasting change in how you feel and act.
​​
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT)
DBT‑informed therapy focuses on building four key skill sets: mindfulness, emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. These skills are especially helpful for individuals who struggle with intense emotions, self‑criticism, impulsivity, or relationship conflicts, and they support you in staying present, managing crises, and communicating more effectively.
​
Mindfulness‑Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT)
Mindfulness‑Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) blends mindfulness practices with cognitive therapy techniques to help break the cycle of negative thoughts and mood relapse. Through guided meditation, body awareness, and gentle inquiry, MBCT supports you in noticing early warning signs of anxiety or low mood and responding with kindness and self‑awareness instead of automatic reaction.
​
​Solution‑Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT)
Solution‑Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) is a goal‑oriented, strengths‑based approach that focuses on what’s already working in your life and how to do more of it. Rather than dwelling on problems, SFBT helps you identify small, achievable steps toward your preferred future, making it ideal for clients who want focused, practical support in a relatively short timeframe.
​
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps you develop psychological flexibility by learning to make space for difficult thoughts and feelings while staying aligned with your values. Using mindfulness, acceptance, and behavioural strategies, ACT supports you to reduce the struggle with pain and anxiety and to take meaningful, values‑driven action in your life.
​
Relationship Therapy
​Relationship therapy at Lusana supports individuals, couples, and partners in understanding recurring patterns, improving communication, and rebuilding trust and connection. Our therapists help you explore attachment styles, emotional needs, and conflict cycles in a non‑judgmental space so you can create healthier, more secure relationships in your life.

Trauma-Focused Therapy
Trauma‑focused therapy at Lusana is designed to help you safely process painful experiences, reduce symptoms of PTSD, and move toward healing. Our trauma‑informed approaches address the impact of past trauma on your emotions, body, and relationships, supporting both symptom relief and deeper emotional recovery.
​
Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART)
Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) is a brief, evidence‑informed therapy that uses guided imagery and rapid eye movements to help reprocess distressing memories and reduce their emotional intensity. ART is often effective in just a few sessions and can be especially helpful for symptoms of PTSD, anxiety, nightmares, or unresolved emotional pain tied to past experiences.
​
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
EMDR is a structured, research‑supported therapy that helps the brain reprocess traumatic or disturbing memories using bilateral stimulation (such as guided eye movements, taps, or tones). Through EMDR, clients often experience reduced emotional charge around past events, fewer intrusive thoughts, and improved sleep, mood, and sense of safety.
Sleep Therapy
Sleep therapy at Lusana helps you restore healthy, restorative sleep patterns and reduce the impact of insomnia and other sleep disturbances on your mood, energy, and daily functioning. Our evidence‑informed sleep program is led by a registered sleep technologist and offers both structured group options and flexible individual sessions tailored to your lifestyle and needs.
5‑Week Sleep Therapy Program
Our 5‑week Sleep Therapy Program is designed for people struggling with insomnia, nighttime awakenings, poor sleep quality, or difficulty winding down. Each week you’ll learn practical strategies grounded in sleep science, such as sleep‑window scheduling, stimulus control, relaxation techniques, and sleep‑related habit change, all supported by gentle guidance and progress tracking.​​
Individual Sleep Therapy Sessions
If a structured program isn’t right for you, we also offer individual sleep therapy sessions. These one‑on‑one appointments allow you and the registered sleep technologist to create a personalized plan that addresses your specific sleep challenges, daily routines, and any underlying stress or health concerns that may be affecting your rest.​​​​
Grief Counselling
Grief counselling at Lusana offers compassionate support as you navigate the complex emotions that come with loss, whether from death, relationship endings, or other significant life changes. Our grief‑informed approach creates a safe space to process sadness, anger, guilt, or numbness, while helping you find ways to hold your loss alongside meaning, connection, and healing.
​
What Grief Counselling Can Offer
Grief counselling helps you make sense of your feelings, memories, and thoughts about the person or situation you’ve lost, rather than “moving on” in a rushed way. You’ll have the opportunity to tell your story, explore rituals or creative ways of remembering, and discover coping strategies that honour your unique grieving process.
​
Who Can Benefit
Grief counselling can support individuals, adults, and older teens who are experiencing prolonged sadness, difficulty concentrating, changes in sleep or appetite, or a sense of isolation after a loss. It’s also helpful for those who feel “stuck” in grief or unsure if what they’re feeling is normal, and who want gentle, non‑judgmental guidance to help them move forward at their own pace.

Hypnotherapy
Clinical hypnotherapy at Lusana is a highly effective, evidence‑based therapeutic tool that uses a natural state of deep relaxation and focused attention to gently access the subconscious mind. Far from the misconceptions of stage hypnosis, it is a safe and collaborative process where you remain fully aware and in control throughout the session.
How Hypnotherapy Works
By temporarily bypassing the critical, analytical part of the brain, hypnotherapy helps you identify and reframe deeply rooted negative beliefs, process unresolved emotions, and build new, healthier neural pathways. In a calm, guided state, you can explore patterns that keep you stuck—such as anxiety, self‑doubt, or unhelpful habits—and replace them with more empowering thoughts and responses.
What Hypnotherapy Can Help With
Hypnotherapy can support reductions in anxiety, stress, and insomnia, as well as help with habit change (such as reducing over‑eating or reliance on substances), managing chronic pain, and improving confidence and focus. Sessions are tailored to your goals and can be integrated with other talk‑therapy approaches to create a holistic treatment plan.​​​​
Physiotherapy
Physiotherapy at Lusana supports your physical health, mobility, and recovery through evidence‑informed assessments and targeted treatments. Our physiotherapy services focus on relieving pain, improving movement, and helping you return to daily activities, work, or sport with greater strength, stability, and confidence.
​
Physiotherapy Assessments
Our physiotherapy assessments begin with a thorough evaluation of your movement patterns, posture, strength, range of motion, and any areas of pain or restriction. This assessment helps identify the underlying causes of your symptoms and allows us to create a personalized treatment plan that aligns with your goals and lifestyle.
​
Physiotherapy Treatments
Physiotherapy treatments may include therapeutic exercise, stretching, posture and movement re‑education, and home‑based strategies to support your recovery between sessions. Whether you’re healing from an injury, managing a chronic condition, or working to prevent future pain, our treatments are designed to be practical, progressive, and integrated with your overall wellness plan.​​
Therapeutic Yoga & Meditation
Therapeutic yoga and meditation at Lusana offer a gentle, body‑mind approach to calming the nervous system, releasing tension, and cultivating inner awareness. These practices are designed to support your mental health journey by reducing stress, improving sleep, and helping you feel more grounded and present in your daily life.
​
Therapeutic Yoga
Therapeutic yoga uses modified, mindful postures and breathing techniques tailored to your body’s needs, limitations, and nervous‑system state. Rather than focusing on performance or flexibility, sessions emphasize safety, self‑compassion, and nervous‑system regulation, making them especially supportive for those living with anxiety, trauma, or chronic stress.
Meditation & Mindfulness Practice
Meditation and mindfulness sessions guide you in developing moment‑to‑moment awareness of your thoughts, emotions, and bodily sensations without judgment. Regular practice can help reduce rumination, increase emotional regulation, and create a sense of inner stability, so you feel more equipped to respond thoughtfully rather than react impulsively to life’s challenges.​​​​
Holistic Nutrition
Holistic nutrition at Lusana supports your mental and physical health by identifying the root causes of imbalances in the body and guiding you toward food‑based healing aligned with your unique needs. Our services focus on nourishing your nervous system, improving digestion, boosting energy, and supporting long‑term resilience through personalized recommendations and evidence‑informed lab‑supported assessments.

​
Delayed Food Allergy Assessment
If you’re unsure which foods support your healing and which may be contributing to inflammation, fatigue, skin issues, digestive discomfort, or mood swings, a Delayed Food Allergy Assessment (IgG panel) can offer clarity.​​
​
Food allergies, intolerances, and sensitivities can impact digestion, respiration, the immune system, skin, weight, hormones, and even mood and sleep. A delayed food allergy test (IgG blood panel) identifies your body’s immune response history to specific foods and the degree of that response, helping us personalize your nutrition plan more precisely.

A detailed analysis report from the Holistic Nutritionist explaining your lab results and what they may mean for your body.
-
A 60‑minute session to review the report, discuss which foods may be triggering or healing, and outline immediate dietary adjustments.

​
​Cost & Lab Note:

The Delayed Food Allergy blood test is purchased directly by the client at their own cost.
