Biography

Relationships can be difficult, especially those within ourselves.

Hello! My name is Jodie Thompson. I am a licensed clinical Psychotherapist with a permit from the Order of Psychologists of Quebec, and a Couple and Family Therapist who graduated from McGill University. Over the past 15 + years I have had the opportunity to work with multicultural and remote communities with people ages 5 and older.

I have developed my skills to be collaborative, and as a result, joining and connecting with people have become my specialty. I have supported people through a variety of transitions such as relational issues, depression, anxiety disorders, fertility issues, crisis situations, trauma, mood disorders, and simply trying to work out life’s many trials and tribulations.

I use evidenced based approaches, and have been trained in Systemic, Humanistic, Psychodynamic, and Attachment-Based Psychotherapy. In addition, I have training in Cognitive Behavioural Family Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy, with techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Mindfulness.

My passion is working with people who are seeking to understand themselves, and in the case of couple and family therapy, additionally understanding others who they are surrounded by. This passion has taken the form of interpersonal understanding and identity, and most of all, understanding the conscious and unconscious patterns, which can lead to feeling stuck, and getting trapped in patterns that we have become accustomed to, rather than choices to be proud of.

Success Stories

"After more than a decade of family therapy & rehab, my sister and I thought we had exhausted all of our capabilities to help our mother who is a recovering addict. We suspected she suffers from Borderline Personality Disorder (a very difficult disorder to effectively diagnose). Through extensive research, we found Jodie Thompson online, and took a chance. In all of our years with various family therapists, never has one been so quick to analyze & to offer solutions.

Jodie is highly intuitive and emotionally intelligent. Knowing our family therapy sessions are in the hands of someone effective and capable... allowed us to breathe a sigh of relief, for the first time in a long time. Unfortunately, our mom decided to spend the winter in Florida, so our sessions were cut short after a few months. I’ve since referred Jodie to close family, friends, clients - as I have yet to come across a more helpful therapist.

For all those looking for someone who will connect emotionally, empathize, analyze quickly and counsel directly, look no further. Jodie, thank you. We look forward to the possibility of continuing our growth as a family, with your help."

"I’m very happy with the service that I received from Jodie! Before I saw her, I had started to feel extremely anxious in my daily life when in public spaces and around unfamiliar people. Jodie helped me to understand where these feelings were coming from, and taught me very valuable mindfulness techniques so that I could understand and overcome the emotions that were taking control of my life. I would recommend her services to anyone. Thank you, Jodie!”
