meet your counsellor

 Lora's sessions are about building strengths, managing stress, and helping participants thrive — both in their daily lives and within Atypical’s programs. 

 If you or your child are looking for support with emotions, confidence, or everyday challenges, Lora offers a caring and practical approach 

Understands complex needs – supporting people through anxiety, depression, stress, behavioural challenges, and conflict.
 

Strong yet compassionate – with experience in correctional and community services, she helps people find positive pathways forward.
 

Inclusive and welcoming – fluent in multiple languages and confident working with diverse cultural backgrounds.
 

Collaborative and empowering – works side-by-side with clients to build independence, confidence, and resilience.
 

Sees the whole picture – her background in social work, criminology, and psychology means no challenge is looked at in isolation.
 

Safe and non-judgemental – creating a space where participants feel respected, heard, and truly supported.
 

Part of the bigger journey – counselling can link into Atypical’s farm programs, social skills, and group supports, turning learning into real-life growth.
