Jacqueline Block, BS, MTS, MACPC (in progress) – Counsellor
Introduction
Life can feel overwhelming — especially when you’re carrying stress, trauma, grief, relational wounds, or insecurities. These experiences can leave you anxious, angry, hurt, hopeless, or unsure of where to begin. You don’t have to navigate any of this alone.
I use Integrative Psychotherapy to help you make sense of what you’re going through and to heal patterns of thinking, feeling, and relating that limit your peace and potential.
My approach is collaborative, respectful, and grounded in empathy. Together, we’ll work toward your counselling goals in a space that supports safety, clarity, and meaningful growth.
If you’re ready to explore change and find support, I’d be glad to meet with you.
What I bring to therapy:
I am a wife and mother of two young adults. I come to counselling with a wholistic approach to life and on-going desire to nurture different elements of who we are as human beings — physical, social, spiritual, intellectual and emotional. Open and curious, I am an explorer at heart. Throughout my life I have supported and empowered others in their healing and growth. With sincerity and care I aim to help people truly know and accept themselves and live life more fully.
I’ve had the privilege of living in British Columbia, Saskatchewan, and in the US and Mexico. I have been seasoned through the many diverse people, landscapes and opportunities I’ve experienced.
Gentle and tenacious, I help people see the goodness that is inside of all us. To get there, we must attend to the wounds and burdens that can be more than we can bear on our own. Change is possible. I offer a space free of judgement, shame or condemnation so you can discover what might be holding you back from the change you truly desire.
I enjoy reading, writing, playing sports, spending time with family and friends, and cultivating my spiritual life. Connecting with people on a heart level and seeing them overcome burdens like relational trauma, struggles with self-esteem or social anxiety brings me joy.
