Meet your psychotherapist -
Hello! My name is Jenna Leichner (she/her) and I am a Nurse Practitioner - Psychotherapist registered with the College of Nurses of Ontario. I additionally hold a Certification for Mental Health and Addictions for Nurse Practitioners from the University of Toronto.
Having practised as a Nurse Practitioner since 2014, I have received extensive training in psychotherapy practice models including medical Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I), Polyvagal Theory, Adult Attachment Focused Therapy, Internal Family Systems and Trauma Informed care.
Licensed as a Nurse Practitioner within Ontario Canada, along with the additional training received through the years, has provided me the knowledge, skill and capacity to provide Psychotherapy services to those seeking support.
I offer a nonjudgmental and facilitated safe space for you to be accepted for who you are, and to work with you through talk therapy on your wellness journey.
