I have worked in diverse settings over my 10 years as a Social Worker, but my focus and passion has always been on lifelong holistic family wellness. I believe that in order to heal, process, or explore oneself, a safe, compassionate, empowering, and authentic environment must be created. I strive to do this by bringing my whole perfectly imperfect self into session and want you to come as you are. This way we can work together to create a partnership where what you want, need, and believe is valued foremost. I also identify as a Highly Sensitive Person and enjoy working with kids, adults and parents that relate to feeling deeply.

Hello! I’m Jenn and I’m a registered psychologist. I have been working with teens and adults who have been coping with the impacts of addiction and trauma. Trauma can impact us in a variety of ways, including depression, anxiety, sleep difficulties, relationship stress, and chronic pain. I’m here as a listener and guide, to spark coping, healing, and movement through whatever challenges are in the way of you being the authentic person you want to be. Therapy doesn’t always have to be doom and gloom; therapy is a chance to explore the difficult and celebrate the growth!

Sometimes life presents us with struggles and challenges that let us know it is time for change. Change isn’t always easy, and when considering therapy, often the hardest step is making the first phone call or email. (Congratulations!) My therapeutic approach is rooted in empathy, collaboration, and evidence-based practices. I believe in the innate capacity for growth and change within each individual. My goal is to provide a therapeutic space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to navigate life's complexities.

I love working with trauma and have specialized experience with first responders. I get how it changes the way you think, feel and act so can work with emotional dysregulation and behavioural issues too. Addiction is common, and often a way to cope, and it's the underlying issues I enjoy nurturing and healing. At times, I work with people struggling in relationships, sometimes with themselves, or as they adjust to relational changes or losses. Other times I support people as they navigate life transitions like career changes, pregnancy/parenthood, health issues, or the effects of aging.

Overcoming life’s troubles can be really hard. Two out of every three people suffer in silence; often feeling ashamed or fearing judgement & rejection. Times have changed, and asking for help is no longer considered a weakness. In fact, it’s one of the most important, life-changing decisions we can make for ourselves.

I believe people experience psychological/emotional suffering because they are not able to relate deeply enough to certain aspects of themselves. This disconnection causes "symptoms" and pain. Depression and anxiety are the most common, but they can further develop into problems with identity, addictions, anger, suicidal feelings, despair, problems in relationships, personality disorders etc. To relieve suffering and to further ones personal development, a deeper connection with self is needed. The clients I usually work with are people who feel thwarted in their attempts to be happy, have satisfying relationships, achieve success.
