I have over 25 years of experience helping clients’ take the steps towards feeling empowered and on a positive path to growth and well-being. I believe that forming a partnership with my clients allows me to tailor my therapeutic approach to help them achieve their therapy goals.

As we come out of COVID and this challenging time it is normal to feel a range of different emotions.  It can be especially trying for those who have struggled with depression, anxiety and past trauma before the recent events of COVID-19.  If you are feeling overwhelmed and are in need of speaking to a professional please contact me at 905-591-2935 or JessicaCummings.Psychotherapy@gmail.com.  I am a Certified Clinical Telemental Health Provider and I am currently taking appointments for online, or over the phone therapy sessions Monday through Friday. I will be returning to the office on a limited basis for in-person appointments as of May 2023. For additional information about resources and supports please see my website www.alderwoodtherapy.ca.

As a Mindfulness, Cognitive and Dialectical Behavioural therapist, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating.  While we can’t change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. By applying complementary therapy approaches and techniques we will unearth long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life.

If you’re looking for extra support and guidance through a challenging situation or you’re just ready to move in a new direction in your life.  I look forward to working with you to achieve your goals.
