Welcome to the journey of self-discovery and healing.
I’m Dr. Cedric Benning, a dedicated and passionate provisional psychologist with over five years of experience in the field of mental health. My professional journey has taken me across borders, allowing me to gain valuable insights and cultural perspectives that enrich my practice.
My approach to therapy is rooted in empathy, compassion, and a deep understanding of the human experience. I specialize in providing clinical psychological services for individuals of all ages, from children and adolescents to adults. My therapeutic toolbox includes an eclectic and integrative blend of modalities with a focus on trauma-informed care. While I draw from various therapeutic approaches, including cognitive-behavioural therapy and clinical hypnotherapy, I tailor each treatment plan to meet the unique needs and goals of my clients.
Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of working with diverse populations in a variety of settings, including clinics, rehabilitation centers, and research institutions. The insights generated during my clinical experience have reinforced my belief that mind and body are parts of a greater complex interrelated system, and in order to reach optimal levels of health, we will, together, venture to address both the psychological and physical aspects of your life. Whether it’s supporting individuals coping with trauma, anxiety, chronic pain, depression, or life transitions, my goal is to create a safe and nurturing space where healing can unfold.
My commitment to ongoing learning and professional development ensures that I stay informed about the latest research findings and therapeutic techniques, allowing me to provide the highest quality of care to my clients.
Whether you’re seeking support for yourself, your child, or your family, I invite you to embark on this journey of growth and transformation with me. Together, we can navigate the challenges you’re facing and uncover the strength and resilience within you.
Thank you for considering me as a partner on your path to healing.

With more than a decade of experience, I’ve made it my mission to train and acquire the best possible tools. I do the utmost to serve my clients with expertise, and propose strategies that are adapted to their individual needs, so that they can rediscover a sense of purpose, direction and satisfaction. My strategy is to explore a person’s lived experience, so that together we can gather a better understanding of why we do what we do, and feel the way we feel. This knowledge creates opportunities to embrace who we are authentically, while letting go of what no longer serves.
I believe emotions to be a full-bodied experience. There is a powerful healing that occurs when we allow ourselves to not only feel what we need to feel, but also to shift our relationship with our internal experiences. Contact me, and start your journey of empowerment. Innovative Therapy Solutions: Life… Empowered.

Feeling overwhelmed by daily challenges and obstacles? Finding it difficult to navigate relationships, career choices, and personal identity? You are not alone, many individuals struggle to navigate these hurdles. Take a moment in a safe space to explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences without any judgment. Therapy isn’t about perfection and having all the answers; but instead having someone by your side who listens to you, supports you, and identifies past trauma and triggers that you may not be aware of.
