Healing Connections is a small counselling & psychotherapy practice based out of North Bay, Ontario, Canada. At Healing Connections Psychotherapy, our mission is to provide trauma-informed support to individuals of all ages, couples, and families. Our commitment also lies in nurturing healing and growth within our community, including schools, businesses, and organizations.

The Turtle Who Remembered the Sky

Long ago, before the moon learned her name,
the sea had no color.
It was made of forgetting
a vast silence swallowing everything that dared to dream.

In those waters lived a turtle
whose shell shimmered like obsidian,
etched with spirals no eye could read.

Each spiral was a memory
of something that once lived
a bird’s cry, a mountain’s shadow,
a mother’s song lost to the tide.

The Turtle carried them all,
for she was the Keeper of What Was.

When the spirits of the sky looked down
and saw how heavy her back had become,
they sent a single feather of light
a falling star
to rest upon her.

The Turtle looked up for the first time.
In her reflection, she saw the heavens
not as above,
but within.

She began to rise.
The waters parted around her.
Waves turned to glass,
revealing the bones of forgotten things.

When she reached the surface,
the star cracked open
and from it, the first dawn spilled.

It kissed her shell,
and the spirals began to glow,
each one awakening a memory of the world:
trees unfurling from silence,
fish learning the rhythm of motion,
winds remembering how to sing.

The Turtle whispered to the newborn light:

“Never let them forget again.”

From that day,
her shell became the map of the earth,
and her eyes the mirrors of the sky.

And when the people of the coast
look to the sea at sunrise,
they say the shimmer on the water
is her breathing
the memory of creation
still rising,
still alive.

Skateboarding offers a wide range of benefits that go beyond just physical activity. It helps improve balance, coordination, and core strength while also promoting cardiovascular health and burning calories.

Mentally, it provides stress relief, encourages mindfulness, and builds confidence through persistence and overcoming challenges.

Skateboarding also fosters creativity and a strong sense of individuality, as there’s no single “right” way to skate.

Socially, it connects people through inclusive and supportive communities, often forming bonds at parks and in shared public spaces.

Accessible and low-cost, skateboarding empowers individuals to engage with their environment in unique ways, making it not just a sport, but a lifestyle and form of self-expression.

Join Mason every Wednesday for an indoor skate session from 6:00pm-7:00pm.

Membership required.
Must have own gear
( board, helmet, pads )
Must have signed waiver.

🎉✨ Three Years of Healing Connections ✨🎉

Today marks 3 years since Healing Connections opened its doors. I honestly cannot believe how far this little vision has come.

They say the first five years of business are the hardest. You face the biggest barriers. You learn the most uncomfortable lessons. You stretch in ways you never expected. All of that is true. There were moments I wondered if I could keep going.

Yet here we are. Still standing. Still growing. Still showing up for our community.

The support has been incredible. Clients who trust us with their healing. First responders who let us walk beside them through trauma. A team that pours their heart into this work. Community partners who believe in what we are building. Family and friends who carried me on the days I ran out of steam.

I am so grateful. Deep down grateful.

Here is to the next year of growth, impact, and stronger mental health support in our community. Here is to resilience. Here is to healing.

Thank you for being part of this journey with me. 🩷
