You may be feeling emotionally overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected from yourself. On the outside, you may be functioning and holding things together, but internally things feel heavy, confusing or hard to manage, especially in your relationships. Many clients come in navigating emotional or narcissistic abuse, anxiety, grief, life transitions, recurring relationship patterns, or difficulty with boundaries and self-trust. In our work together, we slow things down to understand what’s happening beneath the surface; your emotional patterns, triggers, and responses. This creates space for clarity and a more grounded inner relationship.

Do you feel like you are silently carrying a pain that others seem unable to understand? Not all pain is openly acknowledged. Whether it is the death of a loved one or a pet, a life-altering change in health, recovery from a motor vehicle accident (ICBC), or the end of a relationship—these unseen losses carry a crushing weight. When your internal gears silently jam, the loneliness can be overwhelming. Please know that your pain is real, and it deserves to be honoured.

We are all faced with difficulties throughout our lives, and the way we receive them will help to determine the outcome. As we age, we experience mental and physical changes that can lead to numerous challenges along the way. Maintaining healthy relationships may become difficult as we age. Being someone's caregiver is a significant challenge you may be struggling with. Now more than ever finances play a big role, especially if one member of the family requires costly care. Having healthy relationships and enjoying life can be extremely difficult when faced with one or more of these issues. However, it is possible, and I can help!

Connection and understanding is key. Feeling like we can talk freely and understand each other is what it´s all about. Building trust and clarity guides our progress and paves the way so our efforts can lead us forward to the results we desire in our lives. In that context, professional techniques are like stepping stones and building blocks that help us along the way, particularly when we need it most. If you need support, don´t hesitate to reach out. Your needs and goals are an important part of who you are, and what your journey is. I will be honoured to offer all the support I can.

Hello! My name is Jessie. Thank you for reaching out to consider if I’m the right counsellor for you. I have an online practice, Ongoing Self, and I offer in-person sessions through Peak Resilience. A little bit about me is that I immigrated to Canada when I was 5, and grew up across 6 different cities. I was also raised in a multi-faith household. In my own communities, I’ve seen the impact of generations of trauma and low mental health support. It’s not easy trying to navigate everything all at once: your environment, your people, yourself. My hope is to help you write a different future from the history handed to you.

Most of my clients come to me after years of being bounced around — poked, prodded, dismissed, told their symptoms are stress or in their head. They live with chronic pain, chronic illness, ME/CFS, fibromyalgia, Long COVID, POTS, or medical trauma, and they're done pushing through flares and pretending to be fine. What they want is someone who actually gets it. I do — I live in a chronic-illness body myself. We work on nervous system regulation, pacing, and everything you're carrying alongside the illness, using Pain Reprocessing Therapy, SSP, CBT, DBT, and somatic work. Online across BC, AB, MB, SK, NL, YT, NT, and NU.

You look fine on the outside, but inside your nervous system is always on edge. Your mind races, your body stays tense, sleep is hard, and you’re constantly scanning for what could go wrong. You’re tired of managing anxiety and want real relief. You want to feel safe in your body, trust yourself again, and move through life without fear quietly running the show.

I work with adults, couples, and parents who feel emotionally overwhelmed, stuck, or impacted by difficult life experiences. Many of my clients are seeking clarity, emotional balance, and deeper, healthier relationships. I believe that every person has an inherent capacity to heal, and that with the right support, clients can reconnect with their inner strengths and who they truly want to become. In our work together, clients explore emotional patterns shaped by past experiences and develop greater self-compassion, regulation, and more meaningful connections.

Your emotions are valid…feel them. It’s okay to feel overwhelmed. It’s common for transitions in life to bring up heavy emotions. This heaviness may be surfacing for you as feelings of being stuck, anxiety, frustration, hopelessness and even fear. You are taking the first step in acknowledging these difficult experiences and seeking support in working through them to live a more fulfilling life.
