Liliana Gonzalez, M.C.

Liliana appreciates the power of listening to and understanding people's unique stories and worldviews; she creates a safe space for clients to share their story. Liliana believes that through helping clients to identify and maximize their strengths and self-knowledge, they can become empowered to achieve personal growth.

Bilingual in Spanish and English, and with a multicultural background, she approaches counselling with an empathetic and non-judgmental mindset. Liliana works collaboratively with her clients to identify their concerns and to tailor counselling interventions to meet their specific needs. Liliana combines strategies from solution-focused, cognitive behavioural, mindfulness, narrative and acceptance and commitment therapies into her practice. She is also completing training in Gottman Couples Therapy.

A continuous learner, she has completed training on a variety of topics, including intercultural communication, self-compassion, happiness psychology, mindfulness, Indigenous worldviews and narrative assessment.

She also holds certificates in human resource management, career education, advanced sports and exercise nutrition, digital media design, and graphic design. Her professional experience and knowledge allow her to support a diverse clientele in a holistic way, and to help her clients overcome challenges to achieve their personal goals.
