Our Story
“The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.”
Melissa Kroonenberg (RP, RMFT) Co-Founder of New Roots Therapy
New Roots Therapy was founded 12 years ago by Melissa Kroonenberg and Corinne Carter. Drawing on their foundation rooted in conscious, collaborative, relational psychology, Melissa and Corinne joined forces to bring quality psychotherapy services to individuals, couples and families in the Durham Region. Since it was planted in 2010, New Roots Therapy has grown into a thriving multidisciplinary counselling and wellness clinic serving the Durham Region and beyond.
In 2022, Melissa became the sole owner of New Roots Therapy. She is excited to continue providing quality counseling and wellness services to our community in line with the clinic’s mission and values.
