    Our Story

    Jason Koenigbaur and Jodie Lindley saw a vision for a “healing community,” in the heart of Newmarket. This vision became a reality when the centre opened its doors in March of 2018 at 436 Queen Street, in historic downtown Newmarket. Jason, a Registered Psychotherapist, had been practicing for over 15 years in York Region providing counselling and psychotherapy services to adults, couples, and teens. During his career he saw many people suffering from unresolved distressful emotions based in past painful memories.

    Only the truth of who you are, if realized, will set you free.
