A Bit About Me
My path to counselling was not a straight line. When I started university, I thought I would become a veterinarian. After taking my first psychology course, I discovered a deep curiosity about the human experience and what shapes us into who we are and who we want to become. During my counselling studies, I realized I wanted to help create a space where people can feel genuinely seen and supported and less alone in what they are carrying.
My years of mental health and coaching, working with individuals and families, taught me the importance of meeting people where they are. I believe therapy should never be one-size-fits-all. Trust, compassion, and feeling comfortable with your therapist are an important part of meaningful therapeutic work.
I also understand that reaching out for therapy can feel vulnerable or overwhelming. My goal is to meet you with warmth and compassion, while moving at a pace that feels right for you. Together, we can explore what brought you to therapy and what you hope can feel different.
I provide individual therapy, teen therapy, marriage counselling, and couples therapy in Mississauga, Georgetown, and Milton, with virtual therapy available across Ontario.
Jacqueline's Story
Jacqueline Brun is a warm, compassionate, and thoughtful Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) finishing her practice hours for the Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology. She holds a bachelor’s degree in psychology and a postgraduate certificate in addictions and mental health.
Her own experiences with moving away from home, grief, loss, and major life transitions have shaped the empathy and perspective she brings to therapy. She understands that difficult experiences can leave us feeling uncertain, overwhelmed, or alone and believes there is no single right way to navigate them. Jacqueline has worked with children and youth through mentoring and community-based programming with Kids with Incarcerated Parents (KIP) Canada, where she saw the importance of consistency, connection, and creating space for young people to feel heard and supported.
With a background in mental health and coaching, Jacqueline has worked in different settings that equipped her to support individuals and families through anxiety, depression, grief, burnout, life transitions, low self-esteem, emotional regulation difficulties, and relationship concerns. She also works with couples experiencing disconnection, recurring conflict, or difficulty feeling heard and understood.
Her approach is holistic, Attachment-Based, Trauma-Informed, Integrative, and Person-Centred, drawing from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT), Solution Focused Therapy (SFT), Motivational Interviewing, Mindfulness, and Somatic approaches. Jacqueline practices with cultural humility and welcomes clients from diverse backgrounds, including LGBTQ2S+ individuals and couples.
Outside of work, she loves getting lost in a good book, playing board games, and spending time with family and friends. Jacqueline enjoys learning and trying new things through movement and creative projects, especially when they are simply fun and absorbing. She believes those moments of curiosity, connection, and play can be meaningful reminders that life is about more than simply getting through difficult seasons.
