Welcome to My Practice

I’m Juliana Villabona, MSW, RSW, RMFT, and it’s my life’s work to support individuals, couples, and families on their own paths toward healing and self-discovery.

My practice in Kitchener-Waterloo is more than a therapy office. It’s a welcoming space where growth, understanding, and positive change can take root.

My Approach


I believe therapy should be as unique as the person seeking it. Everyone’s story is different, and so is their way forward.


My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and paced to meet your needs. I draw from a variety of evidence-based, body-based, and talk-based therapies to help you explore, understand, and heal in ways that feel right for you.


I’m also trained in Havening, a gentle technique that helps reduce trauma symptoms and supports emotional regulation.

My Experience and Qualifications


I am a:

  • Registered Social Worker

  • Certified EMDR Therapist

  • Certified Advanced Practitioner in Sensorimotor Psychotherapy

  • Registered Marriage and Family Therapist

For more than twenty years, I’ve been developing a trauma-focused practice that brings together the best of scientific research and compassionate presence.


My academic and professional training includes a Master of Social Work from Wilfrid Laurier University and certification as a Marriage and Family Therapist through the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy (AAMFT).


I continue to learn and grow in my practice, always seeking new ways to help clients build safety, resilience, and connection.

My Journey


My curiosity about what helps people heal and find balance naturally led me to the field of psychotherapy. I began my career in Colombia, where I practiced as a registered psychologist.

After immigrating to Ontario more than 25 years ago, I’ve had the privilege of working extensively with women and children affected by intimate partner and sexual violence.


I’ve also worked as part of a Family Health Team, collaborating with physicians and other healthcare professionals to provide integrated, holistic care. In addition, I work closely with veterans and first responders, supporting them through the unique challenges that come with service, trauma, and recovery.

Working Together


Whether you’re seeking support for yourself, your relationship, or your family, I would be honoured to walk alongside you on your path to healing.
