Hi, I’m Jaime!
Psychotherapist • Comedian • Speaker• Brain Changer
It’s time to do things differently and that includes having some fun while changing your brain!
Get to Know Me!
I’m definitely not your traditional talk therapist…
I'm obsessed with dessert and always eat it first! I’m also a Sagittarius with a moon sign in Scorpio and rising sign in Gemini. If you're into Human Design, then know that I am also a Manifesting Generator which means I'm not here to fit in. I'm here to create new pathways and not only am I doing that for your brain, I'm also doing that for how we experience all things therapy and mental health.
I specialize in brain-changing conversations for children, youth, and adults that teach you how to stress-proof and change your brain.
I’m also a Stand-Up Comedian and in 2023, I launched my live show, An Evening With My Therapist™, which combines comedy and education to provide a therapeutic experience while having some serious fun!
So, whether it be in session or on stage, each experience with me is designed to cause immediate and lasting change while using approaches that are fast, fun, and effortless.
My Mission Is…
✓ To revolutionize the way we think about and experience mental health and therapy.
✓ To do things differently.
✓ To change your brain.
I’m Known For
I love a good laugh and since we know humour is an effective way to change the brain, it only makes sense we do that in session too! Plus I’m a trained Stand-Up Comedian!
Being Funny
If you knew how to get this stuff done, you would have done so already! Because of that I believe it’s my job to get it done and your only job is to show up! And I’m with you until it’s done!
Being Effective
Sorry families and event organizers! It’s true! I curse in session and events. Never in a vulgar way, just sometimes I talk about times when you used to shit your pants, which always gets a giggle from everyone 🙂
Profanity
I go hard for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and am very supersititious, so during season you may just see me in my jersey! I also may call you out for your poor taste in teams, which is any team besides the Bucs 😋
Football
I am a dynamic storyteller! And since we know stories are another way our brain changes, I share lots of them! It’s never the same session twice. So c’mon! Are you ready to be entertained while changing your brain?!

A Date with my Therapist, Part 2
I’m Canadian born and US raised, but I’m sure my lifelong history isn’t what you’re interested in. Here’s the credentials you’re looking for:
I’m a Registered Psychotherapist (RP) with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO) and hold an inactive status in the state of Florida as a Licensed Mental Health Counsellor (LMHC).
I specialize in brain-based and transformational therapy approaches with extensive training in Rapid Resolution Therapy®, Emotional Pain Intervention®,and Brain-Based Clinical Hypnosis.
I received my Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology at Clark University in Worcester, MA and my Masters of Arts degree in Counsellor Education, specializing in Mental Health, at University of South Florida in Tampa, FL.
Here’s a Bit More…
With almost 20 years in the field I have worked with a lifespan of ages and supervised clinicians in various settings such as day treatment, outpatient, residential, youth justice, schools, in home community services, and private practice.
I have also held roles within the business community as the President of the Midland & District Business Women’s Association and business mentor with the Small Business Centre of Barrie, Simcoe County, and Orillia in their Starter Company Plus and Summer Company programs.
Most recently I launched a live, sold out, show, An Evening With My Therapist™, that donated over $2500 to My Friend’s House in Collingwood, a local organization providing support to women who have been abused.
