About Us
Core Connections Psychology Centre is a psychologist-led practice providing psychotherapy and assessment services in Collingwood, Newmarket, and virtually across Ontario.
While we work with children, adolescents, adults, and families, couples therapy is a core specialty of our practice. We are passionate about helping couples repair attachment injuries, improve communication, strengthen emotional connection, and navigate life's most difficult transitions.
Our clinical philosophy is grounded in systemic, relational, and attachment-based approaches, with Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT) serving as the foundation of much of our work. We welcome clinicians who integrate other evidence-based modalities—including Gottman Method, CBT, ACT, DBT, EMDR, IFS, and Narrative Therapy—to provide individualized care.

- Weekly consultation groups
