We're a relational, trauma-informed psychotherapy centre rooted in compassion, curiosity, and the wisdom of body-mind-spirit connection. We believe great therapy starts with how we show up as humans--and that means doing our own work first.

Our team is made up of experienced therapists and support staff who genuinely care--not just about the work, but about each other. We're led by our

Who You Are

You are a grounded, self-aware therapist who values personal and professional growth. You work with integrity, offer depth to your clients, and thrive in a flexible environment.

You have done--and continue to do--your own deep healing work. You bring authenticity, self-responsibility, and embodied presence to your practice. You can hold space for others because you've done the courageous work of holding space for yourself.

You value honest, direct communication and are open to the process of relational repair with both clients and colleagues. You understand that conflict, when navigated with care and humility, can lead to deeper trust and growth.

You don't just use psychotherapeutic techniques--you embody them. You can clearly conceptualize client challenges through a grounded theoretical lens and are confident applying your chosen frameworks to clinical work.

You: - Are open to feedback and committed to self-inquiry - Embody trauma-informed, relational therapy - Communicate with clarity, care, and directness - Are available for relational repair and non-defensive reflection - Understand theory and use it to guide your clinical decisions - Enjoy independence but value team connection and learning - Feel aligned with a practice that integrates emotional, somatic, and spiritual healing.

Part of your journey to becoming the psychotherapist and person you are today--with all these gifts to share--is the work you have done to get here. We value what you have invested in yourself.
