About Jennifer
My approach is collaborative, strengths-based, and client-centred. I believe you are the expert in your own life and provide a safe space for you to process and heal. Collaboratively, I help you identify your strengths and to explore the root cause of your concerns while using multiple therapeutic tools to help you develop a plan to move forward and obtain your goals.
I work with individuals, couples, and families in areas such as self-acceptance, anxiety, depression, traumatic experiences, grief and loss, health and lifestyle issues, relationships and exploring feelings of anger, shame, and guilt and the impact on your day-to-day life. In addition, I work with couples who are struggling in their relationships and parents who are looking to improve their relationship with their children and each other. I offer pre-commitment counselling to help couples build a successful skill set for long term commitment based on dignity and respect for each other.
I am honoured to act as an ally to my clients and foster their resilience, strength, and courage.
