Coming Back to Wholeness
Because what you’re seeking for exists within.
Integrative trauma therapy — to reconnect with your body, your story, and your life.
THERAPY AND COUNSELLING SERVICES IN NORTH YORK, ONTARIO.
If you’re struggling to create changes despite knowing all the patterns and ways you show up in the world, you’re not alone. Perhaps you’re feeling disconnected, shut down or overwhelmed internally but, appear put together to everyone around you. Many of the people I work with are self-aware and already doing their own work, yet something still feels stuck. My approach is integrative and I use nervous system based modalities to go beyond talk therapy to reach the places that often have no words.
I work with adults who are navigating through the lasting impact of trauma in their present-day lives and have a passion for supporting first responders, individuals who don't feel like they can have a voice, and individuals transitioning into retirement.
"The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change."

Welcome! I’m Renée.
It’s nice to meet you and I’m so glad you’re here.
I know you’re here because you believe what I believe - that change is possible and that we can live a life that’s more authentic to who we are.
Perhaps you’re motivated for something different and ready to take that next step. You already know the patterns of what’s happening inside but now you’re looking for what to do with that knowledge. Yet, despite your awareness, you notice still feeling stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected or shut down. You’re not alone.
In my work with clients, I integrate nervous system-based approaches that support long-term meaningful change in a way that is unique to you. I specialize in working with clients who’ve experienced trauma in any stage of their life and have found its ongoing impacts in the present day. Trauma isn’t often only about what happens on the outside - it’s often about what gets impacted within us.
My practice focuses on anxiety, depression, PTSD, developmental and attachment trauma, people pleasing tendencies, relationship difficulties, life transitions and grief.
