Sheilagh McGlynn, Registered Psychotherapist and JourneyDance Facilitator
My name is Sheilagh McGlynn. My journey to wellness started many years ago. I trained at the Toronto Institute for Relational Therapy (TIRP) in 2008. I started in private practice shortly after that as a student therapist. I am a member of Canadian Association for Psychodynamic Therapy (CAPT) and a Registered Psychotherapist with the Ontario College of Psychotherapists.
In 2010, I trained as a JourneyDance leader. Since then, I’ve complete all three Modules and am a JourneyDance Facilitator. This dance process has been deeply nourishing for me. It operates by using the physical body to connect with the emotional body. Getting out of the head and into the body is exactly what some clients need to get out of the stuck spaces in their lives.
I work from a client-centred model of therapy. I am eager to work with you and what you are dealing with at your pace and on your terms. I am an empathetic listener and will be ready to meet you where you are at.
I use the pronouns she/her.
Land acknowledgement
I work on the lands of the southern shore of Lake Simcoe. These lands were originally used and occupied by the First Peoples of the Williams Treaties First Nations and other Indigenous Peoples.
The Chippewas of Georgina Island First Nation are close neighbours.
I also recognize the unique relationship the Chippewas have with the lands and waters of this territory. They are the water protectors and environmental stewards of these lands, and I join them in these responsibilities.
