About Us

Serving clients in Belleville, Kingston, and across Ontario through virtual therapy, the clinic is grounded in the belief that healing is possible and that no one should have to navigate trauma alone. Through evidence based therapies and advanced neurofeedback technology, Rising Warrior helps clients strengthen resilience, process difficult experiences, and reclaim a greater sense of stability, purpose, and wellbeing.
A Founder’s Story Rooted in Service and Understanding
Rising Warrior was founded by Jo-Anna Steele-Kiley with a mission shaped by both clinical expertise and personal experience.
Service related trauma is something Jo-Anna has witnessed up close. With family ties to policing, firefighting, and military service, she has seen how the demands of service can affect not just the person wearing the uniform, but also the family standing beside them. She also grew up with the lasting effects of war related trauma in her own family, at a time when those struggles were often minimized or simply labeled differently. Those experiences gave her a deep understanding of how trauma can echo across generations and why meaningful, specialized support matters.
That understanding became the foundation for Rising Warrior: a trauma focused clinic created to support veterans, first responders, their families, and others seeking thoughtful, specialized care. Jo-Anna’s goal was to build a practice where people feel seen, where their experiences are met with respect, and where treatment is guided by both compassion and clinical excellence.
What makes Rising Warrior different is not only the training behind the work, but the heart behind it. Jo-Anna’s drive to help others comes from a very real place, and that is reflected in the care, the culture, and the purpose behind the clinic every day.
