I identify as a white, cisgendered, queer woman from Ontario. I originally planned to work in theatre, and I still have a deep love for the arts. As I was studying theatre and trying to understand different characters’ choices through an empathetic lens, I realized how much I had a desire to do this work with real people going through real life experiences.

“I have a background in the arts, crisis counselling, and sex education. I believe that everyone deserves to feel safe in their own body, and I am honoured to support people as they process their experiences and find that safety.”

I am a therapist-in-training in my second year of the Masters of Psychotherapy program at the University of Guelph. As an emerging therapist, I seek to provide a non-judgemental, curious space for clients to explore themselves, one another, and their stories.

“I look for peace in the outdoors, inspiration in stories, and philosophy in other people. I believe in the transformative power of human and more-than-human relationships to return us to ourselves and widen our horizons of meaning.”

Laura McNeilly is a Registered Psychotherapist and Clinical Supervisor working in the field of wholistic healthcare since 1994. She is a trained Massage Therapist, Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine, Chartered Herbalist, Psychotherapist, and Spiritual Director, and holds a Bachelor of Science degree from McGill University and a Masters degree in Spiritual Care & Psychotherapy from Wilfrid Laurier University. Her work stands on three foundational pillars: 1) wholistic-informed therapy centres the complexity and multiplicity of the lived experience, inviting exploration of racial, social, environmental, and historical experience in addition to the mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual work; 2) self-reflection allows for the cultivation of awareness necessary for navigating one’s inner and outer landscapes; 3) relationality centres relationships, including the therapeutic relationship, in any quest for healing. She is a lover of the natural world, a perennial student who seeks knowledge and truths wherever they may be found, and an explorer of the self and the Self.

I am a South Asian, BIPOC-identifying, Integrative, and depth-focused therapist. I draw inspiration from movement, contemplative practices, nature, and art to learn the fundamentals of creativity, inner wisdom, and interconnectedness. Having my roots in India, I bring an intersection between the Eastern and Western approaches to therapy and healing. I adopt a trauma-informed, culturally sensitive, and whole-person approach- incorporating mind-body, spirit and earth connection, Somatic therapy, Jungian psychology, attachment work, internal parts work, neuroscience, mindfulness, and insight-oriented practices into my work with clients.
