For those who are struggling with their connections with themselves--anxiety, depression, trauma; or with others--marital distress, family conflict we provide a space that allows for exploration towards a better life. We value story. We love to laugh when life is funny. We aren't perfect, but we live real lives, and we work hard at our craft to give you the best experience possible. We each know the feeling of struggle, vulnerability, and that feeling of, "I don't know if I can do this. I don't know if I'm enough."

I have worked as a therapist for the past 25 years and come to this work with a depth of experience. I know the importance of finding a space to discover and nurture the hopes, potential and strength in each of us. I am able to offer a number of strategies and tools to manage issues in life - however - I have learned over the years, that one of the most important aspects of counselling is based in the understanding that we all have a sense of what we want in our lives but not always knowing how to get there. During this complicated time I am able to work with you over the phone.

Sometimes, feeling alone is experienced in an environment that seems crowded. This contradiction can leave us confused and overwhelmed because finding yourself in a world that doesn’t make sense is hard. If this sounds familiar, I may be able to help. To me, being a therapist isn’t about fixing, it’s about understanding and building resilience. It’s about finding our place and strengthening our connections to ourselves and to others. My name is Jayme, and I have been a registered social worker for seven years. I have three degrees, all of which have focused on social work, with emphases in clinical studies and behavioral sciences.

Throughout our life we encounter many transitions, changes and opportunities for growth and movement. At times we can find ourselves becoming stuck, sometimes repeatedly. Therapy is about change and becoming unstuck by leaning into the discomfort. I believe we innately lean towards wellbeing and at times we require the support of another to meet that discomfort. I look forward to the opportunity to develop a therapeutic relationship with you and work alongside you on your personal journey.

As humans, I believe in our infinite capacity to overcome many of our challenges with curious and compassionate exploration. We possess the answers to many of our difficulties innately. Compassionate, safe support coupled with the invitation to be authentic and vulnerable can help us to uncover this understanding and inner knowing. It is my goal to hold this supportive space. Each session is specific to the individual, considering your unique life experience, vision and goals. My approach is client-centred, relational, experiential and mindfulness-based.

Life's difficulties call to us to craft a story for ourselves and not just any story will do. One-size-fits-all therapy runs the risk of oversimplifying problems, ignoring injustice and social context, and putting us in boxes. I bring 20 years experience to working with youth and adults in a way that values kindness, open co-created conversation, humility, storytelling, growing the strength of our own voices, and what it looks like to 'do justice' to ourselves and others. I am highly skilled at listening to the parts of the story that matter the most and I will work closely with your goals and interests.

Does this sound like you? Are you someone who never feels good enough? You're passionate about personal growth, willing to "do the work" and maybe you've even been to therapy before… but you need support. Maybe you're looking for support with saying what you mean, trying to decrease the inner critic and perfectionism, and not people-pleasing anymore. Or, maybe you need support leaving a toxic job or relationship, or setting boundaries with the people in your life or struggle with focusing and completing a task. I am here to help.

Are you struggling with anxiety or depression? Unresolved trauma? Do you ever just feel stuck? Or completely overwhelmed? Feeling isolated or simply disconnected from yourself or those around you? Sometimes despite our best efforts, we can’t make sense of what’s happening to us. Perhaps you are seeking a therapist to better understand how to navigate these thoughts and feelings. Or maybe you do not identify with any of these specific issues but want to explore some other area of concern. I would be delighted to take the first steps toward helping you achieve greater wellness.

EMDR is my preferred treatment method; it has changed my life and it has the potential to help you too. If EMDR is not right for you, my trainings in DBT, DNF, Narrative Therapy, Hypnotherapy, Gottman Method, Yoga, Dance, and Meditation make me a versatile and effective therapist. I understand the impact and prevalence of trauma in our world, and I take into consideration the ways that systems and structures (patriarchy, colonialism, racism, etc…) can negatively impact mental health, identity, relationships, and communities. My practice is body-positive; inclusive; LGBTQIA2S+; ENM; and kink friendly.

Welcome to West End Therapy, where the focus is on taking care of your emotional and relationship health. We are a group of compassionate and skilled Marriage & Family Therapists who are here to listen, seek to understand, collaborate with you and share expertise to support your mental health and the health of your relationships. We can help you figure out what patterns are causing distress and find a path that can support you and the ones you love move toward flourishing.

We all want to live with meaning and purpose—to be authentic, compassionate, accepting, patient, and forgiving with ourselves and the people in our lives. Sometimes difficult life experiences can cause us to lose sight of this genuine way of being, so we become closed off from ourselves and others. In other words, we feel stuck… As a therapist, I offer helpful options to getting unstuck. Together we will begin to explore and understand what has contributed to these blocks, as well as uncovering and applying strengths, resources, and skills towards a solution.

Bree acknowledges the courage that it takes to seek counselling and the vulnerability involved in letting someone else in on their struggles. Bree aims to create a culturally sensitive counselling space where the client feels that they are accepted and worthy as the person that they are. Everyone has struggles and perfection is not a goal any of us will achieve. Bree is currently in practicum at Recovery of Hope Winnipeg and is under supervision. Please inquire regarding insurance coverage. Unfortunately, I cannot offer free 15-minute consultations.

There are times when we may develop thoughts and feelings about ourselves that are no longer useful, that disconnect us from who we really are and from the important people around us. If you are feeling stuck in your thoughts, feelings, or behaviours due to issues such as family conflict, relationship issues, trauma, mental health issues, loss, or addictions, therapy can help you to grow and connect with yourself and those close to you again. Whether you are seeking therapy for yourself or with your partner or family, my approach focuses on helping you to find more presence, compassion, and clarity in your life and relationships.

I'm looking to help folks, who are wanting to learn to trust themselves more. Also, they may feel like no matter what they do, it's impossible to have consistently good communication. I take special interest in managing conflict as I feel it is likely where the most growth is to occur. That being said, I recognize that it can be a very uncomfortable experience. Relationships are a high risk, high reward situation. I also do well helping youth and adults who identify as being on the neurodiverse spectrums.

I offer counselling through reflective counselling tools, information sharing and guidance, I provide brief interventions, solution focussed strategies, cognitive behavioural strategies, trauma therapy: basic EMDR and motivational interviewing strategies.

Accepting new clients! Counselling is certainly not a one size fits all practice. This is why I try to provide a therapeutic experience that is tailored to your needs, wants, and goals. I have worked with a broad range of presenting issues such as anxiety, depression, mood disorders, self-esteem and more. If you are seeking support, I would be honored to walk alongside of you in your healing journey.

If you'd like help on your healing journey, you've come to the right place! Finding the right therapist for you is key. It can be a difficult process to find someone you can connect with and share on a deeper level to succeed with improving mental health, relationships and your personal goals.
