Dr. Paula Jacobs has been a Registered Nurse for nearly 30 years and has worked primarily with children and families.  She also has a Doctor of Psychology Degree (Psy.D) and is a Registered Clinical Counsellor.  

Paula works with children, youth, parents and families, to help them adjust to situations which arise in their lives. She has training in many different specialties and tailors her skills to meet each client's needs.  She believes that each client is the expert on their lives and works along side them to meet their individual goals.  Her approach is flexible and integrative.  The relationship between the therapist and client is key as trust is necessary for a person to feel safe enough to work together.  A free 15 minute consultation is available to determine readiness of fit for both client and therapist.
