Whether you're facing challenges or seeking personal growth, we’re dedicated to helping you navigate your path with compassion and care.
Welcome!
I'm Jessica Callegari.
I am a registered psychotherapist (qualifying) from Timmins, providing virtual therapy across Ontario. I work from a strength-based and person-centered perspective, all while leaning on a variety of therapy approaches that are tailored to your unique needs and experiences.
I believe that you are the expert of your own life, and you are more than the problem or difficulties you are facing. My goal as a therapist is to be genuine, caring, and compassionate. I aim to provide a safe and non-judgmental environment where I will work alongside you, highlighting your strengths and resiliency.
My Approach
Life is a continuous journey of growth, change, and self-discovery. At times, this journey can feel uncertain, overwhelming, or even isolating. My approach to therapy is to provide a safe and compassionate space where you can pause, reflect, and explore your unique experiences, values, and emotions.
I believe in honoring your inner wisdom and focusing on your strengths. You are more than the challenges you face, and together, we’ll uncover your resilience and build on the resources you already possess. I draw on a range of therapeutic approaches, including Narrative Therapy, Emotion-Focused Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. Each session is tailored to your individual needs, preferences, and goals, ensuring the process feels authentic and meaningful to you.
Our work together is about connecting with what truly matters to you and finding ways to live in alignment with your values. My goal is to support you in creating a life that feels fulfilling and true to who you are.

- Fun fact #3: If I can be out in nature, you will find me there
- Fun Fact #4: I have acquired the skill of making balloon animals, and I would like to think that I have perfected the art of making dogs, swords, flowers, bumblebees, and hummingbirds.
My Journey
My passion for science, psychology, and the complexities of the brain led me to pursue a Bachelor of Science in Neuroscience at Brock University, followed by a diploma in Concurrent Disorders from Confederation College. I spent five years working at a mental health organization in my hometown, supporting individuals navigating anxiety, mood disorders, schizophrenia, addictions, and homelessness. During this time, I also helped clients with self-esteem, relationships, and life transitions.
Wanting to deepen my skills and better support those I work with, I earned a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University. Now, as a registered psychotherapist (qualifying) with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario and a student member of the Canadian Counselling Psychotherapy Association, I’m committed to walking alongside clients as they navigate life’s challenges.
