About me

My practice
I’m Lit McCarthy, a neurodivergent, trans non-binary counsellor, eco-psychotherapist, and Creative Arts Therapist. My practice is trauma-informed, neuroaffirming, and gender-affirming, grounded in lived experience and collaborative care.
I offer a creative, inclusive space for healing and self-expression, with a nature-integrated approach that honours the wisdom of nature and acknowledges our interdependence with each other and the Earth. I respectfully acknowledge the ongoing healing practices and knowledge systems of First Nations peoples.
Sessions are available outdoors, via Telehealth, or in person at my home studio on the NSW Central Coast.
I work primarily with:
LGBTIQA+ community
Neurodivergent and disabled adolescents and adults
Older people, including those living with dementia and at end-of-life
Together, we co-create gentle, meaningful pathways toward connection, resilience, and expression.
