Hi I’m Jess, a mom of 3 and Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), practicing under the supervision of Aline Maia, RP. I work with a range of clients, especially those who are navigating the various stages of pregnancy, postpartum and parenthood. My role is not to share the best ways to do parenting or life, but to support you in creating space for what’s important to you. Whether that’s digging deeper into the anxiety that is coming up for you in this period, exploring who you really are outside of being a parent, or helping you release some of the weight you’re carrying.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and tailored to each client. Grounded in person-centred therapy, I integrate attachment-based perspectives, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and nervous system–informed approaches to support emotional regulation, connection, and meaningful change. My goal is to create a space where you can show up exactly as you are and feel supported in taking gentle, practical steps forward.
I provide virtual sessions on Wednesdays and Thursdays to clients across Ontario and in-person on Fridays in Ottawa.
