Jennifer Morley
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, MA, BSc, BA, CCPA
It’s not easy being human right now. Especially when you’re carrying anxiety, relationship strain, trauma, or the quiet exhaustion that comes from holding everything together for everyone else. I work with individuals and couples who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from themselves or the people they care about, and who are ready for meaningful change.
My approach to therapy is warm, grounded, and collaborative. I draw from evidence-based and trauma-informed approaches, helping clients build insight, emotional regulation, and healthier patterns in relationships. I place strong emphasis on safety, trust, and understanding the whole person, not just the symptoms that brought them to therapy.
I have extensive experience supporting individuals navigating anxiety, high stress, relationship challenges, grief, and life transitions. I believe therapy should feel like a space where you don’t have to perform, explain away your feelings, or have it all figured out. Together, we slow things down, make sense of what’s happening beneath the surface, and work toward greater clarity, connection, and emotional ease.

Shauna Switzer, MCP, MA RP
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, MCP, Registered Psychotherapist
As a Registered Psychotherapist and Clinical Director of Switzer Counselling & Psychotherapy Associates, I am passionate about providing compassionate, client-centered care that supports meaningful healing and personal growth. With over 20 years of experience in private practice, I have had the privilege of working with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families facing a wide range of emotional and relational challenges.
My therapeutic approach is grounded in evidence-based practices and tailored to meet the unique needs of each individual. I integrate modalities such as EMDR, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and personality disorder treatment to help clients build resilience, strengthen relationships, and process difficult life experiences in a safe and supportive environment.
I believe that therapy is a collaborative journey built on trust, empathy, and authenticity. My goal is to create a space where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to move toward lasting change and emotional well-being.
In addition to my clinical work, I am committed to supporting the growth of the psychotherapy profession through clinical supervision and mentorship of registered professionals and Master’s-level interns. I value ongoing learning, professional development, and fostering strong therapeutic relationships that promote healing and hope.

10 Years Experience
Online in Saint John's, NL Newfoundland And Labrador (Online Only)
St. John's is the capital of Newfoundland and Labrador and one of North America's oldest cities, perched on the Atlantic coast with a distinct cultural identity—Newfoundland's unique vernacular, music, and social traditions are a strong source of community pride and solidarity that provides genuine protective factors against isolation. The mental health landscape is shaped by the boom-and-bust character of the offshore oil industry that employs many residents, the generational grief from the cod fishery's collapse in 1992, and the seasonal affective challenges of a city known for fog, overcast skies, and long Atlantic winters. Memorial University's medical school contributes to the health workforce, and mental health services are provided through NL Health Services. Common therapy concerns include FIFO oil industry stress and relationship strain, economic anxiety tied to energy sector volatility, seasonal depression, and the grief of a community carrying significant intergenerational loss from the collapse of the fishery.
