A Note From Jaclyn

Hi there!

My name is Jaclyn (She/Her), and I am a Registered Provisional Psychologist with the College of Alberta Psychologists and a Certified Canadian Counsellor with the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association. I graduated from City University of Seattle with a master’s degree in Counselling Psychology in 2021.

I enjoy working with individuals and couples of all faiths and cultural backgrounds and those who are part of the LGBTQ2S+ community. My particular area of interest is couples counselling and sex therapy. I believe our intimate relationships and sexuality are important factors to our health and well-being and I am passionate about creating a safe space for curiosity, exploration and discovery in these area. This may include; relationship issues, boundaries and communication, low sexual desire/drive, sexual pain, orgasm difficulties, erectile dysfunction, sexual self-esteem and confidence. Other areas I provide counselling in include; anxiety, depression, self-esteem, life transitions, stress, and emotional regulation.

I have completed additional training in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Gottman Couples Counseling Level 1 and 2. Currently I am completing training to become a Certified Sex Therapist. In my practice I also integrate interventions from the perspective of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Psychoeducation, Mindfulness-based Therapy, and Sex Therapy. Outside of counselling I enjoy travelling, yoga and meditation, concerts, walking around and exploring the city or curled up with a good book or movie!
