GET TO KNOW ME
My name is Jessica McTague and I am a Licensed Counselling Therapist - Candidate (LCT-C)Â and a Certified Canadian Counsellor (CCC). My journey to become a therapist was not linear and I took a few different paths in my education before I got here. One thing that was consistent throughout my education was that I love learning, so much so that I have spent ten years finding my passion across multiple disciplines. I began my education by completing a business degree but I knew by the end that business was not for me. I eventually found myself in a Master of Arts in Experimental Psychology program where I learned the value of evidence-based practices and research. However, I still felt like I needed more in the form of human interaction, which led me to counselling. I completed a Master of Education in Counselling from the University of New Brunswick and I have not looked back since.
I love seeing my clients grow, and work towards living a valued, more balanced life. I give my clients the tools to work towards feeling better in a non-judgmental, confidential space allowing them to maximize their own well-being. I have training in Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy, Interpersonal Therapy, Emotion-Focused therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy . I am also trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) which is a trauma-based therapy allowing me to work with clients who may have experienced trauma. My approach to treatment is tailored specifically to each individual client and I work together with my clients to determine which methods will be most beneficial for my client’s wellbeing.
