Meet Amanda Jenn
Intern Counsellor
amanda@scottsheere.com
Welcome! My name is Amanda, and I am a graduate student currently completing a masters degree in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University in Vancouver. I hold an undergraduate degree in Psychology and Neuroscience and a graduate certificate in Clinical Addictions Studies from the University of Lethbridge. I have a personal interest in Narrative, Solution-Focused, and Existential therapy modalities.
I have been working in the mental health field for about a decade, and I have experience facilitating recovery groups, advocacy work focused on increasing accessibility of therapy services, and providing crisis support for those at their most distressed. I have a passion for working with families and couples and navigating the isolating and complex corners of life together, such as grief/loss, traumas, relationship stress, anxiety/depression, eating disorders, and ADHD.
As an Intern Counsellor, I provide services for teens, adults, and couples, and I believe in tailoring therapeutic methods to meet your unique needs. I offer a safe space that is open and inclusive for all persons. My counselling approach is with a trauma-informed and a humanistic lens: you are the expert of your experiences, but you are also not alone. I help clients by encouraging their autonomy and building resilience to reach their goals and fulfillment, healing, and emotional wellness.
While completing my practicum at Scott Sheere Wellness, I have availability at the Vancouver and Port Moody locations, as well as online. My practice will be directly supervised by Nina Sheere and Heather Scott.
I provide a free initial consultation prior to booking our first session - reach out and let’s see if we’re a fit.
