Long Bio

Rennet Wong-Gates, I’m a Clinical Social Worker MSW, RSW, RP. I arrived in Canada at the age of 17. As a teen in a new home, my life was filled with uncertainties and challenges. I realized the importance of seeking support and the positive impact it can make in our lives. I truly believe we can all benefit from quiet guidance at times to help keep our lives on track. We need to find a sense of connection with ourselves and others to build environments where we feel supported.

 

I have over twenty years of experience in the social service field providing individual and group therapy to children, youth, couples, families and adults. I have worked with two school boards, various community agencies, both at in-patient and out-patients’ programs and hospitals. Both as front line and in management positions. I am currently a lecturer at the University of Toronto Factor Inwentash School of Social Work.

 

My degrees are BA (Sociology) from the University of Toronto, BSW (Social Work) from the University of Victoria, and MSW (Master of Social Work, Dean’s List with a specialization in Health and Mental Health) from the University of Toronto. I also hold several certifications in therapy modalities including Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, Certified Compassionate Inquiry Practitioner and Somatic Experiencing.

I am a member in good standing with the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers and a Registered Psychotherapist with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario.
