Look deep into your SELF,

where awareness and deeply felt expression align for the purpose of creation!

Donna Lee Zmenak MSc. Reg. CASLPO

Cultivating awareness, communication and connection through the authentic SELF.

I help empower individuals, who are ready, to discover and experience a deep innate connection with their natural state of being, a state of feeling whole, peaceful and confident.
Words cannot impart what the indelible lesson of experience can provide. As you discover, feel and maintain alignment of heart, mind and emotion, you become a co-operating component with all of life where healing, productivity, and creation happen. Your heart, your mind, your way!

Donna is a pioneer in sharing the potent message of "Connection First" as a therapist. Her recognition that the "Therapist's" own relationship with their "self" impacts the outcome of therapy, is both ancient and progressive. Donna believes that we cannot give what we do not own. As human at our core, Donna teaches the "helper/healer' to show up authentically, to call forward the wholeness in themselves and others and to provide a richer more compassionate experience for all. The natural benefit of which is improved satisfaction at work and in life. (Virtual or In Person)

“Donna Zmenak is one of the most courageous and authentic people I know. As in her personal, triumphant journey with illness, so in her healing work and teaching she channels truths that emanate from a deeply genuine place, offering guidance rarely to be accessed."

Donna's healing story is predominantly featured in Dr. Gabor Maté's  book above.

Dr. Zoltan Rona M.D. - Thought Leader, Author, Natural Health Educator, Expert in Nutritional Biochemistry and Clinical Nutrition

 “Donna walks the talk and created results in her own personal health journey. She effectively shares her knowledge and healing vibes with all her loved ones as well as clients. Here is a truly unique and inspirational individual that has defied convention and triumphed over illness and adversity. Listening to her is what the world needs to do.”

“Donna was an integral part of our family journey through a difficult time. With her help I was able to understand the greater and more subtle aspects and impact of trauma as a family. I was very grateful for her professionalism and personal touch. We have known Donna for 24 years. I reached out to her as a Coach for personal guidance and found again that her skills and wisdom have evolved through her own challenges bringing her deeper into her journey of service and truly living the personal empowerment she teaches. Having visited her tranquil Healing Centre in Bancroft, I see that Donna lives life as a testament to her being the qualities that she wishes to share with others.
