Divorce is a challenging time for all family members. For children it can be especially difficult. My philosophical approach when addressing the challenges children face as well as their parents is Two Hearts One Home.

Jessica is a skilled and experienced counsellor committed to helping individuals, couples, and families create effective and lasting change. She is experienced with a variety of presenting issues. These issues include relationship struggles, separation and divorce, stress, anxiety and depression, life transitions, parenting, grief/loss, and personal growth.

Going through separation and divorce is a rough process. The yelling, the tears or the fights that happen in the house is keeping you up at night and/or make you worry about your future. It is already difficult to discuss what belongs to who at this point, not to mention there are children involved. You want your children to be ok, but not sure how. Things that your partner said or did in the past seem to be stuck in your head and make you angry or sad. You want peace, you want no conflict and a way out of this emotional disaster. Talk to me, I am here to listen.

Do you sometimes feel stuck in your personal life? Do you get anxious or depressed? Are you concerned or struggling in your marriage or relationship? Do you find communication isn't what it could be or should be? Perhaps your intimacy, emotionally or sexually has waned a bit? How one thinks about these situations plays an important part in how you get change happening. Having a place to think it through and create new ways of approaching these life situations is a valuable thing. I create a safe place to explore these issues in a non-judgmental atmosphere, whether personal issues, relationship issues or divorce issues.

One of the most difficult things to do in life is to ask for help. I understand that making the first call is stressful, and I am open to hearing your concerns as soon as we connect. I encompass a non judgmental approach, based on strength and resilience. I work collaboratively with my clients to empower them to make important changes in their lives. As a counselor, I support each client's own experience of their story. I take a holistic approach to understand the many layers that surround life challenges, to create connections and promote change.

I am committed to providing compassionate support to individuals and struggling with anxiety and overwhelm in order to find balance in their lives. I also work with couples, parents, and families navigating relationship challenges. I was formerly trained as a lawyer and mediator and have worked in adoption for 20 years. As a result, I have extensive experience working with parents to increase their connection to their children and find solutions to parenting challenges. As a parent of four teenagers, I understand the challenges of raising children and navigating the complexities of family life first hand.

One of the most rewarding feelings in life is to feel a sense of ease and acceptance with who you are, despite your vulnerabilities. Like many others, it might be difficult for you to lean on others, yet you face challenges in managing your own emotions. You may feel disconnected from others or who you once were. I have been in the education system for 15 years and have extensive experience working with a variety of children, teens and parents struggling with difficult family dynamics, anxiety, depression, separation, divorce, trauma, major life transitions, and abuse.
