SunLife Therapists in Belleville, ON

Are you noticing some ongoing challenges in your relationships to others and yourself? Do you ever feel a void, an emptiness or even a cloud following you wherever you go and you can't seem to fully get why? That can be an extremely difficult and painful experience, especially as you are trying to navigate through the world. Unfortunately, most of us don't set enough time aside to tune into ourselves, heal some of our wounds and navigate through our complex layers. This avoidance can lead to some long-term affects in our intimate relationships, at work, with our kids, and more.

I am all about authenticity. I want clients to feel comfortable and accepted by me. I believe the goal of therapy is to help clients create the best version of themselves. If you want a therapist who validates and understands your concerns then look no further. I have a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Grant MacEwan University and an After Degree in Elementary Education from the University of Alberta. I graduated with a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University.

My name is Jo-Anna Steele-Kiley and I am the owner and founder of Rising Warrior Psychotherapy & Neurofeedback Clinic. Our group practice is conveniently located in Belleville and Kingston, ON. From your very first contact with our clinic, our intention is for you to feel heard, connected, and supported. As a group therapy practice, we appreciate your story, your strengths and your struggles. We anchor ourselves in trauma-informed care; we create a compassionate and nurturing environment to foster healthy relationships with our clients. Healing happens when we can hold both the pain and the joy. We are here to help you do both! ​

I am a Registered Psychotherapist and Certified Hypnotherapist providing short and long-term Counselling/Psychotherapy services; practicing in child, youth and adult Mental Health and Hypnosis. I provide In-Office and Online, private/encrypted Telehealth Psychotherapy. For people requiring a Mental Health diagnosis, medication or treatment recommendations, I can help to arrange Online Consultations with a Psychiatrist (in my office; typically within 2 months of the referral). *NOTE: I am also available for Equine Assisted Psychotherapy at the Charmed Horse Assisted Wellness Centre (www.charmedhawc.com - Enterprise, ON).

C.Psych.Assoc (Supervised Practice) and Registed Psychotherapist. I am a unique therapeutic service dedicated to recovering what I believe is the essence of psychological treatment: holistic treatment of the entire person. We are not made of bits and pieces; we are not divided into sections and we deserve to feel whole. I work with adolescents, adults, and veterans/first responders. I have extensive experience working with depression, anxiety, PTSD, anger, & relationship/attachment issues, however, I can assist you with a variety of other struggles. I am also able to conduct assessments (e.g. VAC, WSIB, & some Psychoeducational).

Many of my clients seek relief from issues they find painfully disruptive as they struggle to manage or change their circumstances. They have difficulty developing healthy coping mechanisms for their situation, and it is now manifesting in faulty perspectives, assumptions or values. My person-centred approach to counselling focuses on the client by looking at coping skills for immediate relief and then heavier issues to understand the source of pain. If you are struggling to take the first step on your therapy journey I will walk you through some of the uncertainty and help ease your worries during your consultation session.

Currently unable to take new clients. Will revisit in July 2024. I want to welcome you warmly to considering services of psychotherapy. When people are having a difficult time, or looking for ways to improve their lives, choosing a therapist can be a difficult process. My approach aims to identify, clarify and resolve issues in a supportive, collaborative, and caring way. During these very challenging times my clinic continues to provide support to clients via telephone and virtual video sessions. Any inquiry is welcomed. Service fees are 100% covered for eligible Veterans and Indigenous people across Canada.

If you've been powering through, staying strong and carrying on, but now you're barely getting by and you're tired of feeling like you're not really living your life, it might be time for outside support. The benefit of therapy is that it's a time where you get to focus on yourself, to look at your life, and to get an outside perspective on how it could be different. You don't have to just endure, with the right support, you can heal from the past, and move forward towards a better future.

Reaching out is a challenge - you've made it to this point, which is a big step! I tailor sessions to each individual's needs/goals - no one fits into a box - my job is to provide you with the resources and coping skills you are looking for and provide a safe and comfortable environment to do so. Being vulnerable is difficult, but it does get easier!

Currently accepting new clients and offering the flexibility of weekend appointments! My goal as a therapist is to ensure individuals to find their way to greater wellbeing when facing challenges. I aim to collaboratively create a safety space for us to work towards self-discovery throughout each session. My passion is supporting individuals in all walks of life live their truth, because you deserve it.

My practice specializes in working with youth, couples, and families. I support clientele who need support with anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, and self-esteem. Many of my clients are experiencing mental health struggles related to their life transitions such as divorce/separation, death of a loved one, and work-related challenges. I can provide you, and your partner, single sessions, brief therapy, and long-term psychotherapy. I offer my services through my office, at your home through Zoom (video therapy), or any location convenient for you. I will ensure that you feel comfortable with the process of starting therapy.

Are you feeling disconnected to yourself, loved ones, or society? Do you question whether you are a good father, son, or partner? Do you feel angry, stuck, overwhelmed, powerless, guilty, or "not normal". Many men struggle with their mental health without seeking help or reaching out for support. Often, this struggle may lead to addiction, anxiety, depression, shame, guilt, suicidal ideation, poor relationships, grief, low self-esteem, or low self-worth. First Step Men's Therapy offers a safe, warm, and inviting space for men to heal, learn, and grow. Book a free consultation today by clicking the "Website" button to learn more.

Do you feel like you're stuck? Are you noticing habits you want to change? Perhaps you’ve tried, and you just keep finding yourself back to where you started. Painful experiences can create this vicious cycle, sometimes leaving us with a version of ourselves that we no longer recognize. Are you noticing intense emotions? Or do you feel like you’re numb to your emotions? Either can be the aftermath of painful and stressful experiences that changes the way we see ourselves, other people, and the world around us. The good news here is, you’re human, you’re not alone, and lasting change is possible.

Many individuals can experience symptoms associated with painful and traumatic circumstances. Anxiety, fear, low self-esteem and hopelessness are a few emotions that can linger after post traumatic events or in life in general. I will work with you in processing these emotions and guide you through the process of grief and healing. Through counselling and treatment, I am able to help you move towards the motivation, perspective, and joy that you once had in your life, or perhaps is something you have never experienced and is something you would like to explore.

It's not just you, life HAS gotten harder in the last few years. If you've been powering through, staying strong and carrying on, but now you're barely getting by and you're tired of feeling like you're not really living your life, it might be time for outside support. The benefit of therapy is that it's a time where you get to focus on yourself, to look at your life, and to get an outside perspective on how it could be different. You don't have to just endure, with the right support, you can heal from the past, and move forward towards a better future.

Feeling disoriented, deflated and just tired can make it hard to experience joy. How can I walk alongside of you? Are you ready to regain balance? To break cyclical behaviours and thoughts? Or to grow in deeper intimacy in your relationships.

With a focus on childhood traumas, ADHD and OCD, as a multicultural and multilingual RP(Q) Canadian with a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology, I'm deeply committed to supporting individuals of all ages and backgrounds. Including LGBTQ2S+, teens, adults, and couples facing these issues, especially within the context of multiculturism, which often carries unique expectations and influences on our self-perception and worldview.
