Find a Therapist in Canada

As an HR Professional with over 20 years in the corporate world, my passion has always been about empowering people and working as a team. As a consultant, mentor, coach and now a therapist, my gift is helping you see the authenticity of your own strengths and superpowers. I truly believe that each person has the inner wisdom to embark on a path of self-care, balance and harmony but sometimes we may get stuck and need help along the way. I believe my role is to support you in uncovering the layers of unconscious, old-patterned beliefs that may have temporarily clouded your ability to live your best life. Together, we can co-create a space that allows you to feel safe enough to be radically honest in order to make incremental steps forward for lasting change. We all want to feel a sense of peace and stability in our lives. Through your journey of self-discovery in our sessions, my aim will be to guide you into seeing new perspectives, offer you a non-judgmental space for emotional acceptance and provide you with practical tools that will empower you to experience your mind, body and spirit in a holistic way.  

Trauma and Shame ... get through the things that hold you back . - leaving you. stalled, anxious or depressed. Live the most authentic and full life available to you .  

Life can be beautiful, but it can also be incredibly hard. When pain, loss, or confusion take hold, it’s easy to get caught in cycles that feel impossible to break. Sometimes, no matter how capable you are, the weight of it all can leave you feeling stuck, disconnected, or unsure of who you are anymore. In therapy, we slow things down. Together, we untangle the patterns that keep you repeating the same pain experiences — in your thoughts, in your relationships, or within yourself. Whether you’re facing trauma, anxiety, addiction, grief, or emotional exhaustion, you don’t have to do it alone. My work supports individuals and couples through the moments that feel unbearable — helping you rediscover stability, clarity, and connection. Healing isn’t about erasing the past; it’s about transforming how you carry it, so you can move forward with strength, authenticity, and self-compassion.  

Through small steps and strategies, you can get there. Thoughts create your reality...Develop a good imagination and believe in your success!

Reaching out isn’t easy. We know we could probably use the help, but we keep going back to “it’ll pass”; “you're just giving up”; “it’s all in your head”; and "it's just talking". Yet, no matter what we try, nothing seems to help. We’re stuck, overwhelmed by depression, hopelessness, fears, guilt, and shame. This pain is very, very real, and better is possible: we can all achieve real, meaningful change. Specializing in addiction, trauma, BPD, and anxiety therapy for men and women, I use grounded, experience-based methods alongside research-backed tools: parts work (IFS), narrative approaches, mindfulness, EFT, polyvagal and somatic work.

Hi, I’m Jessica. I hold a Master of Arts degree in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University and a Bachelor of Science Honours degree in Psychology from Trent University. With 15 years of experience in mental health, developmental services, and youth support, I have worked with individuals and families across a wide range of needs and life transitions. These experiences have shaped my approach as a therapist—grounded, collaborative, and responsive to each person’s unique story. As an integrative psychotherapist, I combine multiple approaches to create a personalized and compassionate space tailored to each client. My foundation in cognitive-behavioural, psychodynamic, and humanistic therapies allows us to explore patterns, values, and life experiences that shape how you think, feel, and connect in the present. Through this process, we can uncover the deeper roots of challenges, build awareness, and open pathways toward healing, growth, and meaningful change. In our work together, we gently uncover how past experiences connect to current challenges, creating space to process unresolved emotions and reconnect with the parts of yourself that may have felt lost.

Are you in a place of excessive worrying which is causing you unmanageable Anxiety? How about the unbearable Depressive symptoms? Do you find yourself unable to do anything because you are so Stressed out? Is your Relationship with others becoming an issue for you?

Then listen to your inner voice and let's talk from the comfort of your private space! We can sort this out together! I am offering Virtual Sessions only at the moment.  

My aim is to provide a warm, safe, caring environment, where trust allows for acceptance to happen. I see my job as a caring, encouraging teacher, whose goal is to eventually work herself out of a job. Mainly, I teach my clients effective coping and communication skills as well as how to analyze how their thoughts influence their behaviors. With this knowledge, they can change irrational thoughts and beliefs, and also realize better behavior choices.  

I believe that every person carries an innate capacity to heal, no matter how deep the wounds of childhood may be. For more than 25 years, I have been privileged to walk alongside individuals on this path of recovery. My work as an RN–Psychotherapist, with a specialization in trauma recovery, has shown me that while trauma can leave us feeling disconnected, it never erases the truth of who we are. In our work together, I don’t seek to fix you—I seek to honour the whole of who you are. I listen for the truths that want to be spoken, the body’s wisdom that longs to be heard, and the spirit’s call back to peace. Healing, for me, is about supporting you as you remember your wholeness, your worth, and your divine purpose. If you are here reading these words, know that you have already taken a courageous step toward transformation. I am honoured to walk with you.  

Are you feeling depressed and anxious? Or just overwhelmed and don't know where to start? Maybe you are going through a period of transition and need support. Therapy can help. I tailor my therapeutic approach to meet the unique needs of each client and together we can identify the roots of your problems and create strategies to overcome them. Stressful events can stir up feelings and memories of previous traumas and affect our abilities to cope. If you are feeling lonely, sad and have intense suicidal feelings and thoughts, reach out.
