Tracy Kennedy, Registered Social Worker & Trauma Therapist: Guiding You Towards Holistic Healing and Lasting Well-Being

Headshot of Tracy Kennedy, Registered Social Worker and Trauma Therapist, specializing in Trauma Therapy, EMDR Therapy, and Holistic Healing. virtual therapy for adults in ontario and british columbia canada.

My journey into this profession didn't start in academia—it began with life's unexpected twists and turns. Just like everyone else, I've faced some of life's hard challenges.  I know how nerve-wracking it can be to take that first step into therapy and how daunting change can feel. But I've also felt the power of setting boundaries, the freedom from challenging limiting beliefs, and the relief of less anxiety.

I'm someone who 'walks the talk', experiencing the very techniques I now offer. And let me assure you, I've witnessed and felt their profound impact firsthand.

Now, I'm here to share my insights with you. Let's rewrite your story together. Let's uncover the resilience, the bravery, the joy, the serenity—because I believe they're all within your grasp.

Beyond the Therapist:

In my own healing journey, I've learned to prioritize my needs and set healthy boundaries.  Discovering what work life balance meant to me has significantly shifted my life. While being a therapist is a significant part of who I am, it's also one facet among many.  As a recovered workaholic, I've reclaimed my time from the relentless hustle culture and I now find fulfillment in life's simple pleasures and intentional living.   These days you'll often spot me exploring the outdoors—whether hiking through forests, skiing down the slopes, or swimming in lakes.  Some of my current passions outside my work are running, vegetarian cuisine, yoga, being a dog mom, alpine skiing, learning, unscheduled time, and travel.

 

Expertise and Approach:

As a seasoned therapist with +15 years of experience I use many creative methods and therapeutic approaches to help guide you on your journey towards calm, connection and confidence.  My compassionate approach incorporates a commitment to the mind-body connection and holistic healing.

My expertise includes Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR), Flash Technique, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Emotional Freedom Technique (Tapping), and Safe & Sound Protocol (SSP).

 During sessions I provide practical tools and strategies for your journey to holistic healing—addressing your mental, emotional, and physical well-being.

Therapy with me is an active partnership, where you gain insights, tools, and unwavering support for your complete well-being.
