Meet Jayne, Registered Social Worker & Counsellor

Meet Jayne - Founder of Ash Tree Counselling

Hi, I’m Jayne, founder of Ash Tree Counselling.

With a Master of Social Work focused on trauma and resiliency, I specialize in intergenerational trauma counselling and parenting counselling for individuals ready to explore their identity, relationships, and lived experiences more deeply.

For over 8 years, I’ve supported people in understanding how patterns are carried through families and how they can be reshaped with intention, care, and curiosity.

My approach is:

  • Trauma-informed

  • Client-centred

  • Gender and queer-affirming

  • Rooted in connection, not judgment

I am a Registered Social Worker and a provider with FNHA. I work with individuals aged 16+ through secure online sessions.

Areas of Focus

    Intergenerational Trauma Counselling in Vancouver

    Intergenerational trauma counselling helps you explore the patterns, beliefs, and emotional responses passed through lineage.

    Together, we work to:

    - Understand inherited cycles (anxiety, depression, PTSD, relationship patterns)

    - Explore collective and systemic impacts on identity and belonging

    - Reclaim strengths, resilience, and supportive traditions

    - Build new patterns rooted in awareness and choice

    This work is about both unlearning what no longer serves you and strengthening what does.
