Meet Jenna

About
I graduated with my Master's in Clinical Social Work in 2016 from the University of Calgary. I am an active Registered Clinical Social Worker with authorization for Restricted Psychosocial Intervention (ACSW). I also carry a designation as a Clinical Traumatologist (TITC-CT) from the Traumatology Institute and recently obtained my Level II CBT accreditation from the Association of Psychological Therapies. I have been practicing social work for ten years (seven at an MSW level) and have a range of experience with crisis intervention and individual / group therapy. My virtual services are available for all ages. LGBTQIA+ Ally.

When I am not providing counselling, I am at home with my dog Chloe and cat Meatloaf watching reality TV or reading a Ruth Ware novel.

My Approach
I always like to start where my clients are at and provide a listening ear to better understand their experiences. I approach clients with curiosity and use a strength-based approach. Whether we do general psychotherapy or a more structured approach like CBT, therapy should feel relaxed and supportive.

My Passion
It is my passion to work with people and to be a witness to their resiliency and strengths. It is important that I continue to learn and grow as a therapist so that I can provide the best services to my clients. I am passionate about having a sense of humour and approaching therapy with a laidback, professional approach so that therapy can be enjoyable/not intimidating.

A Typical Session With Jenna
A typical first session involves me asking questions to get to know you and your situation better. I never enter sessions with an agenda as I like the session to feel casual/comfortable. I ask questions with curiosity and wonder to help bring new perspectives.

Benefits of Counseling with Jenna
I specialize in eating disorder/binge-eating treatment, trauma counselling, Solution-Focused and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, therefore I provide a wide-range of interventions to meet your needs. I provide individual counselling for all ages virtually (Alberta-wide) which helps increase access to services.

I can help you with:
-Eating Disorders (understand the function of the ED, CBT/DBT to manage thoughts and find other ways to respond)
-Binge Eating (understanding triggers, CBT around thoughts, decrease binges, increase coping)
-Depression/Anxiety (decreasing symptoms, improving coping, learning ways to manage)
-Trauma (understanding your trauma, increased ways of coping, preventing flashbacks, regaining sense of self)
-Relationships/Attachment (better communication, understanding your attachment style, increased self-confidence)
-Overall wellness support
Many thanks for looking at my profile and if I can support you in anyway, please reach out!
