Meet Jenn
Hello, and welcome! I’ve always had a deep desire to be in a helping profession, which naturally led me to social work. My journey into this field began with first obtaining a Bachelor’s Degree, and then a Master’s Degree in Social Work with a clinical specialization from the University of Calgary. Following that, I received additional specialized registration to become a recognized Registered Clinical Social Worker with the Alberta College of Social Workers (ACSW). Over the years, I have honed my skills in providing therapy and support, helping individuals navigate life’s difficult transitions within hospitals, primary care clinics, and now, in private practice.
I understand that life can be challenging, and I believe in the power of a compassionate, safe, and collaborative space to help guide people through their most difficult moments. My approach is informed by a blend of therapeutic modalities, including Attachment Based, Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART). Additionally, I have specialized training in Perinatal Mental Health, which allows me to offer dedicated support for individuals navigating the unique emotional challenges of pregnancy and early parenthood. I draw from various approaches to tailor each session to the unique needs of my clients, believing that no one size fits all.
On a personal note, I am married and a proud mother to a spirited little boy, which has deepened my understanding of the complexities of family life, parenthood, and the challenges that come with balancing personal and professional demands. I bring this empathy and personal experience into my work, helping to foster an environment where my clients feel truly heard, supported, and understood.
Above all, I pride myself on creating authentic connections with the people I work with. I strive to provide a warm, open, and non-judgmental space where folks feel comfortable sharing their stories, no matter how difficult they may seem. My goal is not only to support but to walk alongside you on your journey, helping you develop the tools and insights needed to heal and grow. I am an ally who believes in the strength and resilience of every individual, and I am committed to standing with you through it all.
