Meet Lara Pierre

Child and Family Therapist | Connected Parenting™ Coach | School Social Worker | Speaker and Supervisor

Hi, I'm Lara Pierre, MSW, RSW

I'm a Child and Family Psychotherapist, Certified Connected Parenting™ Practitioner, School Social Worker and Supervisor with nearly 20 years of experience supporting children, teens, and families.

I specialize in:

  • Parent coaching – especially for early years and adolescence

  • Family and individual therapy

  • Training for educators and school teams

  • Clinical supervision for therapists

  • Public speaking and workshops for parents and caregivers

My work blends evidence-based strategies with empathy and real-life parenting experience. Whether you're dealing with toddler meltdowns, school struggles, or teen pushback, I help you build stronger, calmer connections with the kids in your care.

I'm also a School Social Worker, which gives me deep insight into the challenges children face in educational settings—and how parents and educators can best support them.

I also provide professional training for educators, deliver keynote talks and workshops for parents and caregivers, and offer clinical supervision for fellow therapists.

I'm registered with the OCSWSSW and a member of the Ontario Association of Social Workers. My services are covered by many extended health benefit plans.

Let’s work together to bring more clarity, connection, and confidence to your parenting journey.
