The Wellness Counselling Group consists of professional and qualified Psychotherapists and Counsellors who provide an empathetic, proactive environment for personal empowerment.

Director Of The Wellness Counselling Group

Liana Renwick-Palmerio, B.A., C.T.C.,(C)OACCPP – has been in practice since 1994. Initially her focus was with adolescents and children however, her expertise and interests have lead her to an additional specialty with Anxiety Related Disorders (Agoraphobia, Panic Attacks, Phobias, Generalized Anxiety, and Trauma).

Liana Renwick-Palmerio has made it her goal to find other therapists that are genuine, empathetic and empowering individuals in order to motivate clients in a positive direction with their lives.

She believes that good therapists / counsellors do not have to have the highest degree, diploma or certification possible with top grades. Therapists must be people who are qualified but with outgoing, enthusiastic personalities and a genuine concern for their clients well-being. Customer Service is a key concern for the this Director and The Wellness Counselling Group, something she thinks has been forgotten in the field of Mental Wellness.

The key to personal satisfaction is through
hard-work, optimism, and reflection

For the past several years Liana Renwick-Palmerio has worked with not only individuals and their families, but with such organizations as the Halton School Board, Halton Regional Police Services, the Ford Plant of Oakville, IKEA, the Royal Bank and BD to name a few
