You can be successful on the outside and still feel there is more to discover, achieve, or experience. Perhaps you want greater confidence, deeper relationships, clarity about your next chapter, or a life that feels as fulfilling on the inside as it looks on the outside. You may be navigating a career transition, preparing for a high-stakes opportunity, or simply want more.

I'm Ilana (Lina) Kofman, a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) in Ontario and former Corporate Executive. I bring together evidence-based psychology, real-world leadership experience, and a warm, practical approach to help you understand yourself, unlock your potential, and create meaningful change.

Background & Experience

My experience spans both psychotherapy from Gladshteyn Psychology, AllHealth and LaylaCare and more than 15 years in Executive and Leadership roles at multi-billion-dollar North American corporations, including TD, RBC, and P&G. I understand firsthand the pressures of high performance, the complexities of leadership, the challenge of balancing career, family and kids and the uncertainty that accompanies career transitions or starting fresh in a new role or country.

My academic background includes an Honours BA in Psychology and MA studies in Psychology from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, BREM Ontario Mental Health Registration Program alongside an MBA from the Schulich School of Business at York University.

I also bring a dynamic, creative perspective to therapy. Through Second City improv training in Toronto and performing with TIV Theatre productions across Canada, I’ve seen how stepping outside our comfort zones opens up new possibilities. I draw on these experiential techniques to help clients practice difficult conversations, prepare for interviews and presentations, manage performance anxiety, and communicate with greater confidence and authenticity.

How We Can Work Together

Whether you are overcoming self-doubt, strengthening relationships, preparing for a major opportunity, or seeking deeper personal fulfillment, our work will focus on what matters most to you.

Integrating CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and spirituality, I combine psychological insight with practical strategies tailored to your unique goals. Together, we will uncover patterns that may be holding you back, leverage your natural strengths, and translate insight into lasting, meaningful change.

If this feels aligned, I invite you to explore the different ways we can work together.
