Coming Soon to Kemptville: The Second Nature Multidisciplinary Clinic – Healing, Learning, and Belonging—All in One Place

We are thrilled to share something that’s been growing quietly behind the scenes—something that has been shaped by years of listening, dreaming, and responding to the real needs of the families we serve.

Coming Soon to Kemptville: The Second Nature Multidisciplinary Clinic – Healing, Learning, and Belonging—All in One Place
Anastasia Machanby Anastasia Machan29 Apr 2026

Second Nature’s Multidisciplinary Clinic is coming to Kemptville. And with it, a new way to access neuro-affirming, trauma-informed support in a setting that feels warm, grounded, and connected to the rhythms of nature.

Because healing doesn’t happen in silos. And learning doesn’t live in just one lane. At Second Nature, we bring it all together—under one roof, and under the canopy of trees.

Why a Multidisciplinary Clinic?

Families raising neurodivergent children or navigating mental health challenges often find themselves bouncing from place to place, retelling their stories, and trying to coordinate care across disconnected systems. It’s exhausting, confusing, and too often ineffective.

Our response? A holistic, integrated clinic where families can access a range of services—seamlessly, compassionately, and in one place. A place where the right supports come together in the right way, at the right time, for your child and your family.

What We Offer

Our clinic will bring together a thoughtful team of professionals who work collaboratively to support the whole child, including:

  • Mental Health Therapists

  • Occupational Therapists

  • Speech-Language Pathologists

  • Social Workers and Family Support Workers

  • Educational Therapists & Learning Strategists

  • Somatic Practitioners and Creative Arts Therapists

  • Equine- and Nature-Based Specialists

These services will be available individually or in coordinated care plans, depending on what your child or family needs.

We are here for:

  • Children and youth navigating anxiety, trauma, ADHD, autism, and more

  • Parents and caregivers seeking guidance, regulation, and connection

  • Families needing collaborative care that respects their pace and priorities

  • Educators and professionals looking for consultation, workshops, or wraparound support

And true to Second Nature’s roots, all of this will happen in a space designed to soothe—not

overstimulate. A space with soft light, natural materials, sensory-friendly rooms, and a view of the trees.

A Clinic that Feels Like Coming Home

Our Kemptville clinic won’t feel like a clinic at all. It will feel like a nest—a place to land, be held, and find your way again. It will feel like forest and breath and relief.

Because the environment is part of the therapy. Because relationships are the foundation of growth. And because every child deserves to feel safe, understood, and celebrated—not just tolerated.

This clinic is more than a location—it’s a reflection of our deepest values: Connection over compliance. Collaboration over hierarchy. Compassion over hurry.

Rooted in Kemptville

We chose Kemptville for our hub because it mirrors who we are: a community that values nature, heart-centered care, and working together to support families.

Located within the beautiful Kemptville Campus Agroforestry Centre, our clinic will be surrounded by walking trails, trees, and open skies—creating a seamless link between indoor and outdoor healing.

We are building not just a clinic, but a community of care. And we can’t wait to welcome you.
