Hi, I’m Jessica…

A woman with long, wavy red hair and blue eyes, smiling, wearing a white button-up shirt with the sleeves rolled up and high-waisted blue jeans, standing against a plain light-colored background.

I am a Registered Psychologist who works with both individuals and couples. I hold a Master of Counselling from City University of Seattle and a Bachelor of Management from the University of Lethbridge. Before becoming a psychologist, I spent 10 years working in the oil and gas industry.

My decision to transition into psychology was shaped by both personal and professional experiences. While I valued my work in the corporate sector, I found myself seeking a career that was more aligned with my values and a desire to make a meaningful impact in the lives of others. As someone who has always been naturally compassionate and curious about human behaviour, psychology felt like a natural fit.

Perhaps the most significant influence on this career change was my own therapeutic journey. Through therapy, I experienced firsthand the power of self-awareness, personal growth, and healing. The insight and knowledge I gained inspired a passion for cultivating compassion for myself and others, which ultimately led me to pursue a career dedicated to supporting others in their own journeys toward greater well-being and authenticity.

  • I love travelling off the beaten path and immersing myself in culture, witnessing how others live in environments so different from my own. The experience often shows the strength, adaptability, and resiliency of us humans.

    I was born to Italian-immigrant parents. Although I may not look like it, my family immigrated to Canada from Southern Italy. I have first-hand experience in learning how to balance traditional family and cultural pressures with differing values that feel more authentic to me.

    I love dancing. Having danced for most of my upbringing, I have a huge love for music and movement. You’ll definitely see me busting some moves in my car and throwing at-home dance parties with my two daughters.

    I am passionate about food. Perhaps it’s the Italian in me, but I value connection with others over food. I love trying new cuisines and feel grateful to live in a city that offers so many diverse cuisines.

    My dream job growing up was to become an architect. I remember spending hours drawing city skylines and extravagant floors plans on drafting tables in school.
