Compassionate Therapy in Calgary for Adults Navigating Relationship Pain, Life Transitions, and Emotional Overwhelm

Reach out if you…

Are you feeling stuck or exhausted from trying to hold everything together while parts of your life feel like they’re quietly falling apart? I help adults — men and women — who look strong and capable on the outside but feel misunderstood, overwhelmed, or unseen in their closest relationships. Whether you’re dealing with emotional confusion, constant self-doubt, walking on eggshells, or a growing sense that something “just isn’t right,” you don’t have to sort through this alone. Together we slow things down, make sense of what’s really happening, and help you rebuild clarity, strength, and confidence in your own voice again.

    I work with teens to older adults (ages 15 to 65), and what they consistently value most is how our sessions stay focused on them—their healing, their goals, and what truly matters in their lives. Book a free consultation call to see if we are the right fit for your healing journey.

Professional Development & Group Workshops

I offer interactive workshops and seminars for schools, social agencies, and organizations that combine psychology, creativity, and practical tools for emotional awareness and communication. My signature program, Box Journaling, helps participants explore how thoughts, emotions, and beliefs influence one another—building clarity, empathy, and self-understanding. Each session is hands-on, adaptable for youth or adults, and designed to leave participants with meaningful takeaways about managing emotions, understanding others, and fostering a more compassionate culture at school or work.

“Since starting therapy, I’ve stopped blaming myself for everything. I see how certain dynamics shaped me—and I’m learning how to step out of them.”

— Christina., JakeJoy CLIENT

"I’ve done therapy before, but this feels different. It’s deeper, more focused, and somehow more me."
