Rebecca Medcalf, SE (Intermediate - In Training), Reiki, CYT- 200
Somatic Practitioner
Rebecca Medcalf completed her undergraduate degree in Psychology at York University and went on to attend Teachers College, becoming a certified teacher. She taught for 14 years in elementary schools, with a focus on special education, emotional regulation, and social-emotional learning; she is a certified Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) facilitator. Rebecca later transitioned into the mental health field, where she now provides Somatic Experiencing (SE) sessions, yoga, and Reiki. She offers these services at Victoria Wellness, a residential mental health facility located on Rice Lake, as well as at Core Therapy.
In her current practice, Rebecca supports clients in healing from trauma and managing stress. She takes a holistic approach, recognizing that our bodies and nervous systems carry experiences of stress and trauma, and that unresolved energy can remain trapped in the body long after an event has passed. Using Somatic Experiencing, meditation, and gentle movement, she helps clients release these energy charges, regulate their nervous systems, and restore balance. Rebecca’s work focuses on helping individuals reconnect with their bodies, increase self-awareness, and build resilience, confidence, and emotional well-being.
Rebecca is especially passionate about working with teens, supporting them in building confidence, setting healthy boundaries, and developing emotional resilience. She also works with adults navigating the lasting effects of trauma, including heightened anxiety and stress. Rebecca takes a collaborative approach, partnering with each client to create a plan that respects their individual needs, pace, and strengths, ensuring that the work is empowering, supportive, and tailored to their unique journey.
Outside of her professional work, Rebecca enjoys spending time with her two children. She practices meditation and yoga, and makes time to get outdoors daily—whether hiking, walking along the beach, or playing in the snow.
Rebecca has expertise in multiple areas, some of which include:
Trauma and PTSD
Narcissistic abuse recovery
Nervous system regulation and stress management
Increasing self-worth & confidence
Mindfulness, meditation, and gentle movement practices
