Spirituality Therapists in Windsor, NS
Sometimes things in life feel too big and too hard to face alone. Perhaps you're experiencing depression, anxiety, or grief. You might need help navigating codependency, tricky relationship dynamics, challenges with substance use, compulsive behavior, or postpartum support. Maybe you want to explore your gender/sexual identity. Counselling can help you better cope with your struggles, work through mental health challenges, face addiction, and find clarity, hope, and healing. Our time together is judgment-free in a space cultivated with safety, trust, and empathy. I strive to be an anti-oppressive, sex and kink-positive practitioner.

Do you need a moment to take a breath? Are you feeling lost or overwhelmed or stuck? Have you experienced loss or trauma? Is anxiety impacting your daily life?

I see therapy as a creative, collaborative process. I am influenced by by the work of Carl Jung, and I have received post-graduate training in a diverse set of treatment modalities (EMDR, IFS, ACT, CPT, PE, EFT). I enjoy using a unique blend of EMDR and IFS for deeper trauma work, but I am also comfortable with more traditional forms of talk therapy. For work with couples/families, I use a family systems approach and am well-suited to helping couple/family units navigate neurodivergence such as ADHD, highly sensitive people (HSP), BPD and Bipolar Disorder. I am open to and encourage discussing spirituality in our therapy sessions.

I am most skilled and passionate about serving first responders, helping those impacted by trauma or addiction, and honoring one's spirituality.
Hi! I’m Jessica. To me, therapy is a space for you to experience a strong caring relationship, explore your history with the intent of potentially linking it to current day struggles, learn practical coping strategies, and ultimately be supported to thrive in a world that is so often wrought with difficulty. I use evidence-based methods from a structured and holistic approach, sometimes assigning homework. I work hard to tailor your treatment experience based on comprehensive assessment and treating you as a human being, not just a client.

Healing from trauma isn't about "fixing" something that's broken within you; it's a profound unravelling of rediscovering and embracing the parts of yourself that have remained hidden in the shadows of fear and chaos. It's about dismantling destructive patterns created out of survival so that you can reconnect and come home to your authentic SELF. It's about learning to live with a full range of experiences and emotions and feeling as though you are capable, worthy, and enough.

What should I expect from therapy that incorporates a focus on spirituality?
Spirituality can mean different things to different individuals, depending on their experiences, beliefs, and life histories. Some individuals focus on strengthening their belief system, while others experience spirituality in secular ways, such as through meditation, yoga, or by spending time in nature. Clients can expect a therapist to help guide and grow their spirituality through any of these techniques, encouraging the individual to cope with the challenges they face and develop strategies to build resilience and purpose to improve their outlook in life.
What are the most common treatments that include spirituality?
There are several treatments that incorporate spirituality. Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) helps a person examine and reframe their negative thoughts and behaviours. Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) focuses on emotional acceptance and psychological flexibility. Existential therapy is most often used to address anxiety, depression, grief, loneliness, apathy, despair, questions of identity, and feelings of purposelessness and existential dread. Transpersonal therapy focuses on a client’s spirituality and meaning in life and may incorporate techniques including meditation, visualisation, hypnotherapy, dream analysis, and or breathwork.
Can therapy incorporating spirituality help atheistic or agnostic individuals?
Yes. For non-believers, spirituality can offer benefits including a greater sense of connection to others and to the natural world. An interest in spirituality may also spur individuals to pursue mindfulness practices, or to contemplate their purpose in life and how to achieve it.
How effective is spirituality as a therapeutic remedy?
Research suggests spirituality is generally beneficial for individuals. It is correlated with better health habits, such as less substance use, and an improved capacity to cope with stress and other mental health challenges. Increased spirituality can lead individuals to become more empathic and less materialistic, as well.
