Meet Jessica
Sarafinchin
Social Worker, Psychotherapist
I understand how vulnerable it can feel to open up about dark thoughts, struggles in relationships, or fears about your mental health. Many of my clients feared judgment or dismissal, worried they'd be told it’s just stress or to make drastic life changes they didn’t want.
Here, you’ll find a compassionate and supportive environment where your experiences are validated and addressed with care. I offer therapy services within Ontario and Nova Scotia (Canada) to serve my clients to the best of my ability.
Start Your Journey to Emotional Wellness
What To Expect...
As someone who’s been through it, I know the power of having your feelings, perceptions, and experiences validated. I’m here to offer you that space—one where your struggles are heard, your concerns are addressed, and your potential is celebrated.
We’ll work together to:
-
Heal past wounds that may be holding you back.
-
Focus on building a confident, empowered present and future.
-
Bust the myth that you have to “just deal with” hormonal chaos.
If you’re ready to rewrite the narrative around postpartum period, PMS, PMDD, Perimenopause, or Menopause and take meaningful steps toward balance and fulfillment, I’m here to help.
Hormone-Informed Approach
For nearly 30 years, I’ve been on my own adventure with hormones, navigating the highs, lows, and in-betweens of the female experience. Along the way, I’ve learned one powerful truth: shame has no place in any journey. Unfortunately, knowledge and understanding of these transitions are far too often lacking. To be honest (or TBH as the kids say) hormones impact more than just women, they impact relationships of all kinds because and that needs to be acknowledged.
I work with women who feel burdened by the idea that they’re “crazy” and have resigned themselves to the disruption that postpartum period, PMS, PMDD, Perimenopause, and Menopause can bring to their lives and relationships. My mission is to challenge that belief, helping people take back control and find peace and empowerment in their lives.
I also work with couples & individuals to help them overcome struggles that hold them back in their personal lives, relationships, and sometimes careers.
