Something brought you here today. Maybe it's anxiety that won't quiet down. The weight of trauma you've been carrying too long. Struggles in your relationship or family that need more than good intentions. Or simply knowing you deserve to feel more like yourself again.

That instinct is worth listening to. At Aurora Village Therapy & Wellness Centre, we help people in Aurora and across York Region find real relief — not just from symptoms, but from the deeper patterns keeping them stuck.

Our Aurora therapy clinic is located at 15017 Yonge Street, Suite 200, inside the Aurora Medical Centre at Yonge & Kennedy. We provide individual therapy, couples therapy, family therapy, and trauma therapy in Aurora — alongside somatic therapy, wellness services, and group programs. Our registered Aurora therapists are Master's-level Registered Psychotherapists and Social Workers. Because lasting change requires the mind, heart, and body to heal together.

"This space was built with one intention — to create a place in Aurora where people feel truly safe to heal."

Couples therapy in Aurora — Aurora Village Therapy & Wellness Centre

"Between you and the person you love, there is a field. Our work is tending to it — together."

Featured Program · Couples Therapy in Aurora

Real healing happens
in contact.

Relationships are living things. They hold our deepest longings for closeness — and the places we've been wounded in the reaching for it.

Our couples work begins with a different question than most therapy asks. Not "what is wrong with this relationship?" — but "what is trying to happen between you, and what is getting in the way?"

We work in the moment, with what is alive between you in the room. When those attachment wounds are met with care — in real time, in each other's presence — something begins to soften. Contact becomes possible again.

Present-moment awareness

Restoring real contact

This is the work of building something both people can trust — a relationship where both of you can be fully seen, and still chosen.

Signature Program · Trauma Therapy in Aurora

Trauma lives in the nervous system — that's where we go to heal it.

A comprehensive, multi-modal program for adults carrying the weight of unprocessed trauma — PTSD, complex trauma, childhood wounds, attachment injuries, and nervous system dysregulation.

Most people come to trauma therapy after they've already tried talk therapy and found it didn't reach deep enough. That's not your fault — and it's not a failure of therapy. Trauma is stored in the body and the nervous system, not just in the thinking mind.

Our trauma healing program is a staged, integrative approach. We begin by carefully assessing what needs to be processed, build your capacity to stay present with difficult material, then move into the deeper nervous-system and attachment work that creates lasting change.

Stage 01
Assessment & Mapping

A careful look at the traumatic memories, patterns, and triggers that need processing.

Stage 02
Grounding & Regulation

Tools for safety first. Grounding, resourcing, and nervous-system regulation practices.

Stage 03
Somatic Bodywork

Working directly with the body to release the physiological charge of trauma.

Stage 04
LENS Neurofeedback

A gentle, evidence-based approach that helps the brain shift out of chronic stuck states.

Stage 05
EMDR Therapy

One of the most researched trauma treatments, used to reprocess specific memories at the root.

Stage 06
Auricular Acupuncture

Ear-based acupuncture that calms the vagal nervous system — gentle and deeply regulating.

Stage 07
ETT Light Therapy & Attachment Repair

Healing the wounds beneath the symptoms, where early relational injury lives.

Stage 08
Parts Work & IFS

Meeting the protective and wounded parts of you with compassion and bringing them into integration.

◈ Now Offering
One-Day Therapy Personal Intensives
