Life doesn't unfold neatly; neither does healing. The complexities that life throws at you can feel very overwhelming. Yet these experiences, though challenging, are also avenues for positive change. Together we will not only explore these aspects but also unravel your strength and resilience that often remain hidden beneath the surface. Through your journey I aim to not only help you find relief from pain; but also to empower you to transform these challenges into stepping stones toward a brighter future, and a more Authentic YOU! I promise to provide a safe space where you feel accepted, heard, respected, supported and understood.
From my personal battles and experiences with ADHD, anxiety, trauma, addictions, and being queer, I can intimately understand your life struggles. I discovered that beneath the darkness lies the potential for profound transformation and growth! Let my journey serve as a guiding light on your path to healing. You are safe with me; remember you are not alone.
My clinic is located Southside Edmonton at Orchards Gate. Counselling bookings are now available June to Dec 2026! I am accepting limited new clients and who are welcome to join my cancellation list. Please visit our website, call, email, or book sessions online on our Jane app. Together we will honour your authentic story and foster the change you desire.
