Shaunacy King, Registered Psychotherapist

Hello!  

I am a Registered Psychotherapist and the Clinical Director at Willow Path Therapy.

My therapy style is what I like to refer to as "relational."  

By pairing human-to-human relational vibes with the science of therapy I help clients, like yourself,  work through your concerns by offering the power of a grounded and affirmative experience.  

My background?

I earned a Masters of Philosophy from the University of Glasgow, Scotland and continued on to pursue a Doctorate in Canadian Studies at Trent University.  I love research and resources and diligently work to support my clients with materials that support their goals!

Following my initial graduate studies I went on to complete a Masters of Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University, where I focused on therapeutic modalities related to the support of trauma experiences, sexuality, midlife experiences, and relationships.  

My Modalities & Interests?
