This is the little girl who sits beside you and lovingly encourages you to take care of yourself. She is the little girls knows what it feels like to navigate through hard things and once over-exercised and under-ate to cope and now helps others nourish without restriction and move with intention. She brings humour and deep loyalty to her work with you and never hesitates to go above and beyond.

Tracey, your beautiful heart shines through everything you do. You care big, love hard and this little girl would be so proud of the person she grew up to be 🙏

May is designated as ‘Mental Health Awareness Month’, and we are taking this opportunity to reflect as a team on our own mental well-being and celebrate the shared human experience that motivates us in this important work. Starting with Tracey Harper, our nutritionist and all around hype women at the office.

Tracey celebrates her 3-year anniversary with CCP this month. In her 3 years with us at CCP, she has supported the implementation of our Eating Disorder programs and co-designed our Menopause transition workshops and co-lead many of our workshops. Along with supported countless clients, she has been an anchor for our therapists and an overall joy to be around.

Thank you for helping us all build more awareness and strength around our mental health.

Some of these are 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Many of our clients struggle with asking for help and/or knowing when it’s okay to set a limit with someone they care about.

It’s normal to need a little bit of help with this and It’s never too late to start.

Try one of these before the months over 👏👏

August 2018 the first post on this account was made.

April 2026 the 1000 post was made on this account.

Sometime in 2009 I started my first blog.

From 2009 to sometime in 2020 I wrote newsletters for my clients weekly with reflections and words of motivation and validation.

I wrote a lot in my undergrad. Representations of health and illness with professor Sinding was one of the most life changing classes I took. It was there I discovered the healing power of reflection and it allowed me to process things I hadn’t yet understood.

I love words of affirmation and ensuring those around me feel appreciated.

The Pisces in me loves the creative element of design and the creative self care that comes with the aesthetic part of this platform.

This platform is not an accurate or reliable place to learn about our clinicians work. I’m not trying to be or ever was trying to be an influencer (although, people really do enjoy a good dancing vid).

A huge component in my personal healing and my business’ longevity and sustainability means connecting to things that align with my values. This is why I’m here and why I will continue to post, write and take photos. As it states in our bio, unless otherwise credited, these views are mine. It’s my place to rant, appreciate and bring awareness to things I love and am passionate about.

I’ve always wanted to write a book and maybe one day I will. For now, this will do.

Judgment is often a mirror, not a magnifying glass. Sorry to say but the moments we feel most reactive can point to something vulnerable, unresolved, or deeply human within us.

When we pause long enough to get curious instead of critical, we shift from blame to insight, and that’s where real growth begins.

I see this on this platform, lots of opinion laced with judgement.

I see this in my office, wounded hearts activated reasonably so.

I see assumptions being made constantly breaking down relationships and effective communication.

Ask questions, get curious, pause and take care of what gets activated in you. It’s not easy, not everyone responds well and it will help eventually 😉

This week we navigated,
Grief.
Divorce.
Anxiety.
PTSD.
Binge eating disorder.
Stress.
Hopelessness.
(And more)
New clients.
Clients taking a pause.

We used modalities like:
EMDR
ACT
DBT
ERP
Narrative
Emotion Focussed Individual Therapy
Emotion focussed couples therapy.

We collaborated by:
Meeting with each other today to review our ED specific programs.
Reaching out to other clinicians to effectively refer clients.
Brainstormed how to make our space accessible for a client in need.
Talked to several clients on the phone who are considering therapy.
Had 3 one on one meetings with therapists on the team.
Welcomed back clients who started their work with Remi again.

There are many days in this field of work that can feel like we aren’t a making a dent in the pain that people are facing. Sometimes I need to take a moment to reflect to quiet the part of me who fears it’s not enough.

I know some of you can relate.

Take a moment to recognize your efforts this week. Whether it’s getting out of bed or completing a task on your to do list. When we move to fast we miss the beauty in the details.

Happy Friday ✌🏼

Thank you Tracey, Sasha, Shelagh, Luisa, Marcia, Paula, Andrea, Jennifer, Lindsay and Remi for bringing so much to this work, you’re all amazing.

Thank you .photo for shooting our favourite candids

“It may be rare in the world, but there are genuinely people who want to see you win in life and these are some of them.”

If only I could publish a newsletter sharing all the amazing things I see my clients “winning” at. It’s truly wonderful doing this work and being surrounded by clinicians who care so deeply about each of you.

Thanks again for capturing these moments.

Welcome back, Remi!

Remi is starting back in the office today after taking some time off to be a mom. We are grateful to have Remi with us in-person and online on Wednesdays and Thursdays. She brings a passion to her work that is infectious. Her clients have all been eagerly awaiting her return and we can’t wait to see you back in the space.

“There is something profoundly human about telling your story and having someone stay. Not to fix it. Not to rush it.
Just to understand it with you.”

That’s where therapy begins, in the space where you are no longer alone with your thoughts. It takes courage to sit with yourself, to say things out loud you’ve barely let yourself think.

Therapy is courage practiced quietly.

And we love helping you get there.
