Aurora Therapeutics

 With over 20 years of experience as a nurse before becoming a clinical counsellor, Renee has seen firsthand how life’s challenges can affect health, relationships, and one’s sense of self. She brings this deep understanding to her work as a therapist, blending medical insight with a compassionate therapeutic approach to support meaningful growth and lasting healing.  

Renee offers a safe and inclusive environment, specialized trauma care, and an integrated holistic approach so you can move forward with hope, confidence, and empowerment. Helping you heal from trauma is her passion. You will work together to guide you to rediscover your inner strength, rebuild trust within yourself and others, and create lasting emotional wellness. 

Therapy with me focuses on understanding what is happening in your life and how patterns shaped by past experiences and relationships continue to influence the present. Our work is collaborative and reflective, with attention to both what feels easier to explore and what may be harder to face. Progress does not always follow a straight line, and part of the work is noticing when familiar patterns may be keeping you stuck.

In session, Afton shows up grounded, curious, and genuine. She believes therapy works best when it feels real, with room for honesty, reflection, humour, and thoughtful challenge. Whether you are navigating anxiety, low mood, relationship difficulties, or a sense of feeling stuck, Afton offers a space to speak openly, make sense of what is unfolding, and move toward meaningful change.
