Healing isn’t a destination- it is the quiet return to yourself, again and again.
I’m a Registered Social Worker offering individual and group counselling for people navigating change, healing and self-discovery.
My approach is grounded in collaboration, connection, and compassion. I specialize in working with people who are navigating life transitions, self-discovery, and the complexities of perinatal and reproductive mental health. I have received additional training in reproductive and perinatal mental health, trauma and complex trauma.
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.
Hi! I’m Jack…
Counselling Approach
I draw from a range of modalities, including relational, parts work, EMDR, DBT, and mindfulness. I tailor my support to fit your needs- whether you’re working through a tough patch or seeking a shift in perspective.
My approach is trauma- informed, anti-oppressive and seeks to be affirming of all identities, bodies, and communities.
I engage regularly in ongoing study, supervision, and self-reflection.
Additional Trainings:
Psilocybin-assisted Psychotherapy (Ongoing-Therapsil)
Ketamine- assisted Therapy (Roots to Thrive, 2026)
EMDR Basic Training (EMDR Consulting)
Complex Trauma Certificate Training (PESI)
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.
