Lavinia Hoff

Lavinia Hoff holds a Master of Social Work from the University of Windsor and a Bachelor of Indigenous Social Work from Laurentian University. She is registered to practise social work in Ontario and is approved for electronic practice in Newfoundland & Labrador and Nova Scotia.

As a Registered Social Worker, Lavinia supports adults navigating trauma, psychological injury, chronic stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and the emotional impact of life‑altering experiences. She frequently works with individuals affected by motor‑vehicle accidents, workplace injuries, disability, and service‑related events.

Lavinia’s practice is grounded in compassion, clinical integrity, and deep respect for each client’s unique history, strengths, and rehabilitation goals. She takes a collaborative, individualized approach, creating a supportive space where clients feel heard and understood while working toward recovery and improved functioning. Her work is guided by cultural humility, honouring each person’s lived experience, values, and intersecting identities.

She integrates evidence‑based therapeutic modalities, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT). Lavinia also incorporates mindfulness and somatic approaches to support mind‑body awareness, emotional regulation, and resilience.

Outside of her clinical practice, Lavinia enjoys being in nature, exploring new places on day trips, reading, and painting. She especially cherishes time spent with her family and her mini poodle.
