Jessica Forrest, PhD

I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor with specialized training in trauma, attachment, and psychedelic support. My approach is relational, collaborative, and evidence-informed. I help people make sense of their experiences and find a way through challenges. Together, we can clarify what you want from counselling and explore ways of working that fit your goals and preferences. I check in regularly so we can build on what helps and adjust what doesn’t.

Frequently
asked questions

What is your fee?

My fee is $145 per 60-minute session.

Are counselling sessions covered by insurance?

Many extended health plans cover counselling with a Registered Clinical Counsellor. I provide receipts that you can submit for reimbursement. Coverage varies, so I recommend checking directly with your insurer.

What happens during the free intro call?

We will meet for 20 minutes, talk briefly about what you are looking for, and discuss any initial questions about working together.

What can I expect from the first session?

Your first session is an opportunity for us to begin getting to know one another. We will talk about what brings you to counselling, what you hope to understand better or change, and relevant parts of your history and current life.

You do not need to know what to say. I’ll offer questions to help us get started, and you can share as much or as little as you feel comfortable with.
