Online therapy across Canada.
defy convention. step into your power. rise as your true, authentic self.
No B.S. therapy for people who are
tired of feeling small.
it feels like nothing you ever do is
good enough.
Does this sound familiar?
you say yes to literally everything, even when you’re desperate to say no
you and your inner critic are co-dependent besties, and not in a good way
you sometimes feel as if you’re performing life
you feel lost in the idea of who everyone else thinks you should be, and have no idea who you are
you feel intense, overwhelming waves of rage, sadness and/or anxiety that blindside you out of nowhere
hiya. i’m jess.
I believe we all have a little rebel inside of us; it’s that part holding the freak flag that you’re constantly shoving aside but that’s dying to break through to help you step into who you are and leave all the anxiety, low-self esteem and other B.S. behind.
Being a human can feel really hard sometimes, and living life according to someone else’s expectations—your partner, a parent, a family member or even broader society—can make it feel impossible, and ain’t nobody got time for that.
As a therapist (and okay, as a person in general), I’ve got a reputation as a challenger; I’m not going to let your inner critic, your self-doubt, your imposter syndrome or your mother’s opinions dictate your life anymore because, damnit, you deserve better and you’re worth the work it’s gonna take to feel and live better.
I specialize in…

Anxiety.
It seems like everybody and their mother has anxiety these days (um, because they DO).
When anxiety shows up, it might look or feel very different from how your sister, neighbour or favourite social media influencer feels when they’re anxious. But just because anxiety shows up differently for you doesn’t mean you don’t need or deserve support.

Trauma + PTSD.
When really terrible things happen, it can be hard to know what to do. In fact, lots of us don’t do anything, even though we know it would feel better. Trauma affects not only our thoughts and behaviour but also our physical selves: we carry emotion and remember things in our bodies as well as our minds. Understanding this as a trauma survivor is KEY to managing your day to day life so you can start to feel normal again.

relationships.
As humans, we’re built for connection to others, yet sometimes, that can feel hurtful, confusing or downright impossible. How you show up in your relationships is way more about you than it is about the other person. You can still work on your relationships without going to couples therapy (because this isn’t couples therapy). So, let’s figure out who you want to be and how you want to connect with the people you care about.
support for farmers + people in agriculture.
There’s no other way of life quite like farming in Canada. The weather, the markets, the down cows, the family dynamics, the equipment breakdowns, the whole feeding-the-world thing. It’s beautifully tragic every single day. I know because I was a dairy and crop farmer for almost 20 years.
If you’re a farmer or person connected to Canadian agriculture, you can trust my approach to therapy. Helping you feel better won’t be based on me telling you to slow down, leave work at work or take time off—because literally none of those are applicable to farmers.
So let’s figure out what does apply to you, because you deserve to feel better about your finances, your family, your livestock, the land you take care of—and you absolutely deserve to feel better about yourself.

the thing is,
online therapy just hits different.
Online therapy with me offers you countless benefits—the best are that you don’t have travel to my office AND you get to arrive to therapy each time from within the comfort of your own space. That means if you want to wear your comfies and have your pets in the room for support, you can!
When you decide to do online therapy with me, all I ask is that you have a quiet, relatively private space with a solid internet connection to retreat to for the duration of the session (50 minutes). So, feel free to let your partner, kids, roommates or noisy neighbours know they’ll see you in about an hour and to not interrupt unless it’s an emergency. Sometimes, clients will even retreat to their (parked, turned off) car for their session if their household is particularly feral at therapy time!
It’s entirely up to you where your therapy space will be—but comfortable and sheltered from the elements should be a given. Floofs, comfies and hot coffee/tea optional (but highly recommended).
… you became your best, most authentic self?
… you learned to trust that you ARE enough?
… you finally felt like you mattered to everyone AND to yourself?
