In 2023, Tessa was one of the founding partners who established The Well Body Group, where she spent three years building and developing a collaborative, community-centered clinic model. Through that experience, she further refined her commitment to interdisciplinary care and recognized a growing need for more dedicated maternal, pediatric, and family-focused services within the community. After contributing to the development of that clinic, she chose to step back in order to pursue a more specialized avenue of care — one centered on early intervention, maternal support, and comprehensive family wellness. Foundations Family Wellness Centre was created to help fill the gap in pediatric and family-centered healthcare within the Kawartha Lakes region. Tessa’s clinical approach emphasizes early identification of structural and functional imbalances, addressing root causes rather than symptom management alone, and working within a coordinated interdisciplinary team. Tessa collaborates closely with local physicians, dentists, midwives, lactation consultants, physiotherapists, chiropractors, and mental health providers to ensure families receive comprehensive and continuous care.
