It is Your Health, Your Wellness Day presented by J&M Memorials.
We are taking time to speak with Samantha Devereaux, co-founder at Läka Wellness.
Started in 2020, Devereaux said it was a tough time to open up a business, but in this case, it was one that was clearly needed.
Mental health came to the forefront during the pandemic, and they received incredible feedback.
Their goal is to be a one-stop-shop for mental health, serving all ages and issues from psychotherapy to social work.
They recently even started an outreach team so that they can go out and meet with seniors.
One thing that Devereaux is proud of is their connection to the community, having many community partners embrace them and help them reach people who may need their services, to the point that they were able to open up another site in Simcoe.
From joining the Rotary club to being invited to speak at schools, they want to help break the stigma of therapy and mental health and show it’s accessible for all.
