Markham, Canada Fresh Insight Therapy Services Ltd. Full time

**Who We Are**

Fresh Insight is a wellness clinic that offers psychotherapy and nutritional counselling to individuals, couples, and families of all ages and backgrounds. In addition to offering virtual sessions, we provide in-person counselling out of our office in Markham, located at 305 Renfrew Drive.

Fresh Insight’s mission is to inspire hope, catalyze change, and foster a sense of personal empowerment. We value helping clients gain increased awareness about their thoughts, feelings, and behaviours through asking thought-provoking questions and providing psychoeducation when useful. We are also committed to teaching individuals, couples, and families practical skills that can be used in their day-to-day lives so they may become “unstuck” from unhelpful patterns that may prevent them from living fully and authentically.

Our clinic and its owner, Kristina Virro, have been featured in many media outlets, including Buzzfeed, CP24, Global News Live, Narcity, _Canadian Living_, and many others. For a full list of media appearances, visit fresh-insight.ca/media.
