Ceilidh ('Kay-lee')

Owner and Founder of CMC Therapy

Ceilidh understands the weight that many men carry—the kind that’s often unspoken. With over 12 years of academic and professional experience in psychology, and a career deeply connected to the military community, she has worked alongside service members, veterans, and first responders, both in Canada and overseas. She knows that some of the strongest individuals are also the most silent when it comes to their own emotional pain.

Whether it’s from the battlefield, the pressures of a high-stakes job, or the echoes of early life experiences, Ceilidh recognises how trauma, suppressed emotions, and unresolved anger can shape how you show up—in your relationships, your parenting, and your sense of self. Having lived and worked in multiple countries, she brings a global perspective, cultural sensitivity, and first-hand understanding of the unique challenges that come with deployments, constant transitions, and family life under strain.

Men are often taught to bury their feelings, stay in control, and push forward no matter the cost. But when that cost begins to show—strained relationships, distance from your kids, irritability, or a constant sense of unease—change becomes necessary. That’s where Ceilidh comes in.

Her mission is to support the heroes who’ve spent years putting their own needs aside to protect others. She combines evidence-based therapy with a grounded, real-world approach, offering a safe and confidential space for men to talk openly, explore their emotions, and understand their triggers. With empathy, directness, and respect, she helps clients make sense of how past experiences—whether from service, work, or life’s many demands—are affecting them now, and works with them to build resilience, reconnect with what matters, and move forward with purpose.

Two people are seated on the floor in a small room with soft blue walls, carrying out a focused interaction. Natural light enters through a tall window. The floor is light-colored with small dark patterns. Above them, some boxes and books are stored on a shelf. A decorative ceiling light fixture is visible.
