About Jeanne

Everyone wants to be heard. It is my aim in practice to listen with interest and without judgement as I help you work through obstacles that have come on your path. To further self-discovery I believe in creating a space that is safe and knows no boundaries. Working from a person-centred approach, I believe that you are your own best-expert. Helping you learn to understand how all aspects of life can impact mental health and guide you towards achieving your individual goals. It is a privilege to walk with you on the journey to healing, celebrating and mitigating life’s ups and downs. My hope is to foster a trusting therapeutic relationship with you by treating you genuinely and empathically.

I believe in a counselling setting where we work together to explore and discover your individual strengths and develop skills to overcome life’s challenges and adversities to ultimately achieve fulfilment and overall well-being.

I can offer counselling and support in the following areas:

    • Relationship difficulties
    • Trauma
    • Losses
    • Life transitions
    • Stress and Anxiety
    • Process addictions
    • Emotion Regulation
    • Burnout
    • Self-Esteem
    • Anger Management

I decided to pursue a career in counselling when I was standing with a sales client trying to navigate his recent separation from his spouse. I remember standing there desperate to help and feeling completely helpless. That was the day I discovered my passion for people and helping them realise their absolute potential in mitigating difficult situations.

As an Immigrant to Canada, I believe I bring a unique perspective to the therapy room and understand the importance of being able navigate life’s uncertainties and changes. Immigration has also taught me the importance of relationships and community and how difficult it can be to adapt to a new culture or surroundings.
