As the owner of Quinte Mind & Body, I want to welcome you to the clinic and what we have to offer. I have created this clinic to provide alternative health care in a way that is much needed, combining physical treatment and mental health care under one roof.

I have been a practicing Registered Massage Therapy, (RMT) for many years in the Belleville area. Through my love of learning and providing results for my patients, I have added modalities from my knowledge of the body and medical treatment. Some modalities are Contemporary Medical Acupuncture, Kinesiolgy/medical tape, Pelvic floor health, and becoming a Certified Meditation Teacher and Facilitator.

As a graduate of an advanced course of Massage Therapy at Georgian College, I take great pride in treating my patients with many different manual techniques and tools. After a year in practice I received my certification from McMaster University for Contemporary Medical Acupuncture. I continue to study treatments as medical studies continue to evolve and improve, this a great passion of mine. Making sure my patients understand their pain and feel involved in their treatment is incredibly important. This is part of providing treatment with a difference.

Over many years of being in Practice, I have developed a passion for treating the following:

• High stress / Anxiety


• Pregnancy and Postpartum


• Pelvic Floor Care


• Neurological Conditions and Symptoms (Sciatica, Carpel Tunnel, Numbness/tingles, etc.)


• Headaches / Migraines


• Deep Tissue Work

Quinte Mind & Body is something I take great pride in bringing to Belleville and the Quinte area. I hope you will come and experience what we have to offer and take advantage of alternative health at its finest.

Registered Psychotherapist

Ann is a mental health professional who is trained to listen to your problems, get to the root of what's causing them and help find you solutions. I am a Registered Psychotherapist (RP) with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO) and a Certified Spiritual Care Practitioner (CSCP) with the Canadian Association for Spiritual Care (CASC) and I have years of training and work experience as a Psychotherapist in multiple settings. I treat sessions as confidential.

I also hold dual Masters Degrees with an emphasis on counselling from the Lincoln Christian University, Illinois. My education and professional background have provided me with extensive professional experience in providing competent psychotherapy to clients in any setting. I have the ability to perform individual and group counseling. I am a dynamic, goal-oriented person, a team player, and a good listener. I am a great communicator with suitable problem-solving skills. I have experience working with Motivational Interviewing, Trauma Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution Focused Therapy with different clients such as children, adolescents, adults and couples.

Here is what a couple of Ann's Patients wanted to share about their experience working with her:

- 'Our experience with Ann has been absolutely wonderful. Her soft voice, warm and welcoming manner, immediately puts us at ease. We know we’re received in a safe, accepting, and compassionate space. Each session, Ann is always present, and actively listening. We can literally tell her anything, because she is truly sincere and approachable. She really cares. Ann is so easy to talk to, and engaging in her brilliant, yet simple methods of communicating her experience and knowledge. She helps strengthen our family in ways we haven’t been able to achieve on our own. We highly recommend her!'

- “Attentive listener and practical guidance would best describe my experience with Ann. A caring therapist with extensive experience that could lead me through the many challenges that faced my family and my journey. The right person at the very right time, so grateful.”

Christina Barrett, RRPr, is a Registered Reflexology Practitioner (RRPr) with the Reflexology Registration Council of Ontario (RRCO). Her path into holistic health began with her own wellness challenges, which led her to discover the restorative benefits of reflexology. As a dedicated practitioner, Christina continues to expand her knowledge through ongoing education and training. She offers a calm, compassionate space for clients seeking gentle, healing support.


Reflexology is a deeply supportive therapy that works with the body’s natural healing processes. By stimulating specific reflex points on the feet, it helps reduce stress, improve circulation, support lymphatic flow, encourage hormonal balance, and promote overall equilibrium within the body. Many clients experience a sense of grounding, relaxation, and renewed energy following treatment.


Christina specializes in advanced clinical Foot Reflexology and Reflexology Lymph Drainage (RLD), a gentle, targeted approach that supports lymphatic flow, reduces swelling, and enhances the body’s natural detoxification processes. She also offers Holistic Head Massage and Relaxation massage using Swedish massage techniques (non‑RMT), both of which complement her reflexology work by easing muscular tension, calming the nervous system, and supporting deep relaxation. Together, these therapies provide a nurturing, integrative approach to wellness - ideal for those managing lymphedema, navigating perimenopause or menopause, experiencing chronic tension or stress, or simply seeking a peaceful place to reset.

Christina’s approach is always client centred, meeting each person with care, comfort, and a genuine belief in the body’s innate ability to heal.

I believe healing begins when you feel safe enough to be truly seen, heard, and understood. Reaching out for support can feel difficult, especially when you’ve been carrying things on your own for a long time. My role is to offer you a calm, compassionate, and non-judgmental space where you don’t have to do that anymore. Here, your story is honoured with care, and we move at a pace that feels right for you.

A key part of my work is EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), a powerful, evidence-based therapy that helps the brain process and heal from distressing or traumatic experiences. Sometimes, painful memories remain “stuck,” continuing to affect how we feel, think, and respond in the present. EMDR gently supports your brain in reprocessing these experiences using bilateral stimulation (such as guided eye movements or tapping), helping to reduce emotional intensity and create a greater sense of calm, clarity, and control.

I support individuals and couples navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship challenges, and overwhelming life experiences. Whether your struggles feel recent or deeply rooted, we work together to gently understand what you’re going through and find ways to help you feel more grounded and supported. My approach is trauma-informed, solution focused, culturally sensitive, and grounded in evidence-based care.

I have completed formal training in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) through Wilfrid Laurier University, and I integrate CBT alongside Emotion-Focused Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and mindfulness-based approaches. Together, we explore how thoughts, emotions, and behaviours are connected, while also building practical tools to support healing and everyday functioning.

I have also completed training in Couples Therapy through the Gottman Institute, which supports my work with partners navigating communication challenges, conflict, and rebuilding connection.

I work with a wide range of concerns, including trauma, PTSD, anxiety and mood disorders, postpartum challenges, addictions, emotional regulation, and relationship difficulties. I also support individuals experiencing grief and loss, intimate partner violence, workplace stress, bullying, and the impacts of narcissistic abuse.

I have a particular interest in supporting first responders, immigrants, refugees, and individuals navigating major life transitions, racial trauma, or palliative experiences. My work often includes a focus on the mind-body connection, helping your nervous system move from overwhelm toward safety and balance.

At the heart of my work is a simple belief:

You are not broken, you have been doing your best to cope.

With the right support, healing is possible. You can feel more like yourself again, with greater clarity, strength, and a renewed sense of hope.

It is truly a privilege to walk alongside you in that journey.

I am a Registered Social Worker (RSW) with the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers (OCSWSSW), holding a Master’s Degree in Social Work with a specialization in Medical and Psychiatric Social Work. I bring extensive experience in mental health and healthcare settings, supporting individuals through anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and significant life transitions.

My practice is grounded in compassion, respect, and genuine collaboration. I draw on evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and Crisis Intervention, while also integrating holistic and cognitive-focused modalities including Cognitive Stimulation Therapy, Reminiscence Therapy, and Reality Orientation Therapy. I am also a certified Montreal Cognitive Assessment provider, with specialized experience supporting cognitive health and functioning.

I strive to create a safe, warm, and non-judgmental space where you feel truly heard, understood, and supported at your own pace. Together, we focus on building practical coping strategies, strengthening emotional regulation, and restoring a sense of stability and resilience; especially during times that feel overwhelming or uncertain. I deeply believe that healing is possible when people are met with empathy, consistency, and the right support.

Fluent in English, Malayalam, and Tamil, and with an understanding of Hindi, I am committed to providing culturally responsive and inclusive care that honours each person’s unique story and background.
