Healing isn’t a destination- it is the quiet return to yourself, again and again.

Hi! I’m Jack…

I’m a Registered Social Worker offering individual counselling for people navigating trauma, change, healing and self-discovery.

My approach is grounded in collaboration, connection, and compassion. I often work with people who are:

  • integrating trauma,

  • neurodivergent,

  • queer and/or trans,

  • going through life transitions,

  • looking for reconnection to self,

  • family planning, reproductive mental health and perinatal mental health.

    Before becoming a therapist, I worked as a research assistant in the field of critical health supporting projects focused on lived experience, community wellbeing, and the impacts of systemic oppression. This continues to shape my approach- integrating curiosity, critical thinking, and a commitment to understanding people in the context of their whole lives.

    I offer you a space where you can do the courageous work of exploring yourself, your patterns, and your possibilities.

Counselling Approach

My approach is trauma- informed, anti-oppressive and seeks to be affirming of all identities, bodies, and communities.

I draw from a range of modalities to meet you where you at. I commonly approach our work together drawing from Internal Family Systems (IFS), EMDR and mindfulness within a relational framework.

I tailor my support to fit your needs- whether you’re working through a tough patch or seeking a shift in perspective.

Additional Trainings:

  • Psilocybin-assisted Psychotherapy (Therapsil- in progress)

  • IFS Level 1 (IFS Institute- in progress)

  • Hormone Readiness Assessment (J. Matsui De Roo)

  • Ketamine- assisted Therapy (Roots to Thrive)

  • EMDR Basic Training (EMDR Consulting)

  • Birth and Reproductive Trauma (Canadian Perinatal Mental Health Trainings)

You can take your time.
You can take a breath.
You can start from wherever you are.

Services & Rates

I offer individual counselling both in person and virtually. I also offer Hormone Readiness Assessments for folks who are 18+.

Rates:
$150 for 50 minute session
$225 for 80 minute session

I am committed to reducing the financial barriers of accessing counselling, and I have some sliding scale spots available, please email me for more information.
