We’re offering a pay-what-you-can counselling model that attends to the unique needs of each client. Exact price of sessions will be determined in the first session with one of our student therapists, which gives you chance to work out what will fit best for you moving forward in therapy.

Jenna will be seeing clients from April to October, 2025.

Jenna Fleetwood (student therapist) will be under the supervision of Sarah Hopkins, M.C. (Registered Psychologist) at Transforming Trauma Counselling Centre

I approach my role as an intern therapist from a place of empathy and nonjudgemental curiosity about your experiences. I prioritize creating an environment where you feel heard, safe, and supported in our collaborative work together. My education in counselling psychology and my professional history working with caregivers and people living with dementia have given me insight into the dynamic impacts of stress, grief, and trauma. I recognize that healing may not be linear, and I will meet you where you are at right now in your journey. I integrate elements of acceptance and commitment therapy with narrative and emotion focused approaches to help clients better understand what is most important to them and their healing. I strive to balance meaningful processing work that supports self-awareness with skill building that contributes to resilience. If you are considering what meaningful change might look like for you in your life, I’d be honoured to explore a pathway forward together.

Krista Hooper (she/her) (student therapist) will be under the supervision of Sarah Hopkins, M.C. (Registered Psychologist) at Transforming Trauma Counselling Centre

As a master of counselling psychology intern, I bring experience and understanding to my practice. My background in sociology and psychology, coupled with my personal journey as a competitive soccer player, has given me insight into the impact of trauma, culture, and resilience in mental health. I have previously supported adolescents and children, working closely with families and caregivers to provide comprehensive support. My approach is anchored in empathy and the creation of a non-judgmental space where clients feel valued, heard, and empowered to share their stories. I practice narrative and attachment-based approaches, which have proven invaluable in helping clients explore their personal narratives and overcome challenges. My ultimate goal is to equip my clients with the tools they need to navigate their unique journeys with confidence, resilience, and a deep sense of self-awareness. Whether you are seeking help in managing trauma, searching for support in personal growth, or simply looking for a compassionate listener, I am here to offer understanding, guidance, and unwavering support.
