Jacqueline Boyer

My Approach

Jackie Boyer is a Registered Social Worker with over 25 years of experience supporting individuals and couples through life’s challenges and transitions. She has learned that healing happens in the presence of trust and genuine connection, and believes that a warm, supportive relationship is at the heart of meaningful therapy.

She values the therapy space as a time to pause, process, and gently move through the places where we feel stuck. She sees healing as a holistic process — one that involves calming and reconnecting the body, mind, and spirit. Her work focuses on helping clients make sense of their experiences and move toward balance, self-understanding, and a renewed sense of peace and possibility.

Her approach is client-centered and trauma-informed, grounded in evidence-based practices and years of real-world experience. She meets clients where they are, moving at their pace while honouring what matters most to them. Clients can expect compassion, curiosity, and collaboration as they work toward a path that feels authentic and empowering — one that reflects their values, voice, and goals.

She uses evidence-based therapy techniques such as EMDR, Brainspotting, CBT, DBT, IFS, and Polyvagal Theory. She also draws upon IMAGO theory with an attachment lens when completing couples counselling. She is trained in suicide intervention, restorative practices, traumatic event responses, and violence threat risk assessment level 2.
