Mindful Connections Therapy
Registered Psychotherapist
Living with chronic pain or illness means grieving the life you planned while building one your body can hold, often while feeling dismissed or unseen. The frustration, the isolation, the identity questions that come with a changed body: these deserve real attention, not just symptom checklists. You'll find a warm, nonjudgmental space here to process what illness has changed, work with the anxiety and low mood that often travel with it, and reconnect with what still brings you meaning. The goal isn't just to endure, it's to genuinely understand your relationship with your body, build habits that nourish rather than deplete you, and find fulfillment within your reality. Together we'll work toward feeling more grounded, more at peace with your body, and more equipped for the life in front of you.

Heal(ing) Trauma Therapy
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), HBA, MPsy
From a trauma-informed perspective, chronic-pain and illness are both symptomatic of unresolved trauma, both physical and mental. The work we can do will include helping you better understand your health and how your mind and body impact each other. It can include helping you learn how to better cope with your condition, while also doing the processing work to resolve your trauma. It can also include helping you develop stronger self advocacy to better navigate through the health care systems.

I work with clients living with chronic pain or illness to support their emotional well-being and overall quality of life. My approach blends stress management techniques, gentle mindset shifts, and practical coping strategies to help reduce overwhelm and improve daily functioning. Together, we focus on what you can control—such as pacing, self-compassion, and healthy routines—while honoring your body’s needs and limitations. My goal is to help you feel more empowered and supported in managing your health journey.

I am certified in Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT) and have completed extensive training in other evidence-based mind-body approaches to overcoming chronic pain, fatigue and other neuroplastic symptoms. I am also a person with lived experience of chronic pain and ME/CFS, who has seen profound improvements through the use of Pain Reprocessing Therapy and other mindfulness-based techniques. Because of this, I have strong foundation of knowledge and tools to support clients navigating similar challenges.

Joel Mayer
Registered Psychotherapist, MDiv
By learning ways to make space for the difficult emotions, thoughts, and sensations that come with chronic pain or illness, we can learn to be more mindful compassionate towards ourselves rather than fight so much against what is the reality of this moment. With compassion and an understanding that progress has to be made at your pace, I look forward to working with you to help you pursue meaning and fulfillment amidst chronic pain and illness.
