Chronic Illness Therapists in Saskatoon, SK

Accepting new clients for online therapy! Living with chronic illness, disability, or neurodivergence is hard. Getting through the overwhelm of everyday life feels impossible. You're starting to feel like all you think about is your condition and everything it has taken away from you - work, hobbies, sleep, relationships. Your family and friends don’t get it. They try to help and probably mean well, but sometimes the dismissive way they say things makes you feel worse. You try to hide your symptoms to seem “normal” but inside, you feel like you might break.

Welcome! As a Certified Health & Wellness Coach, clients typically work with me around a desire for change. Sometimes people arrive knowing the desired change and other times discovering this change is the place they want to start. Our work could be around deepening your understanding of yourself, processing current experiences, building wellness into your life, building new habits, cultivating confidence/self-compassion, or getting "unstuck". The possibilities really are endless! My approach is a balance between facilitating discovery, regaining power, and making choices that allows movement towards your desired life.

Therapy is your place to be exactly as you are. I offer compassionate, non-judgmental therapy so you can feel free to be yourself. My practice is strengths-based, trauma-informed, and client-centered. Many of my areas of practice are grounded in lived experience, which supports my ability to offer authentic compassion and empathy. I've navigated the challenges of feeling overwhelmed by trauma and systemic barriers. Thankfully, my journey taught me that when we find good-fit therapy and work on developing deeper self-compassion, we are so much stronger and more capable of healing than we ever imagined possible.

Hi. I'm Jill (she/her). I am a therapist that values creativity and authenticity. In every session, I do my best to use creative interventions that fit your needs. My areas of focus include: complicated grief, loss, chronic illness, illness adjustment, oncology, child loss, and medical trauma.

Supporting others to overcome or rethink the barriers that can keep us from ‘thriving’, has always been my goal.  I have done this through extensive work in the non-profit sector (both in Canada and India), and now as a Registered Provisional Psychologist (R.Psych Provisional). I strive to create a non-judgmental therapeutic relationship in which clients feel safe, understood, and with a vision of what ‘stepping forward with hope’ might look like to them. I work with children aged 6+, adolescents, adults, families and couples. I look forward to meeting you and to finding out what is important to you at this time in your life:)

I’m a Registered Doctoral Psychologist with over 20 years of experience providing treatment and training. It is important to know that all therapy is not created equal.

I have extensive experience in assessing and providing the most efficient and cost effective treatment for each person’s needs and goals, and the highly specialized skills to provide in-depth treatment for those wishing to explore intensive insight-oriented treatment.

I work with all sorts of people, but 2SLGBTQ+ issues and the challenges of being queer in a majority heterosexual world are often the centre of conversation. I focus on helping people to understand and express their identity in the context of the intersection between 2SLGBTQ+ issues and the mental health struggles that accompany this journey, such as anxiety, depression, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. Many people in and out of the 2SLGBTQ+ community are struggling with anxious or intrusive thoughts, dealing with family rejection or loss, and experiencing depression. It's time to take control of our identities.
