Welcome to Heartwood Psychology

Life can be a lot, and mental health support is something that most of us need at some point. I'm here to offer that support. I work best with individual adults who are motivated to heal, grow, or change, but might not quite know where to start, where they want to end up, or just how to get between the two. 

I am proudly 2SLGBTQIA+, gender-affirming, neurodiversity-affirming, BIPOC-allied, and trauma-informed.

As a therapist I am person-centred, meaning that I recognize the value of your experience, and that you have an innate ability to heal, though life experiences may have made that difficult or confusing to even try to do on your own. My job is to accompany and guide you in doing so. I take an integrative approach to counselling based on your individual needs, and use EMDR, Clinical Hypnosis, mindfulness-based approaches (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR)), Internal Family Systems (IFS, also known as "Parts Work"), Narrative Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT). 

I work with a variety of issues including anxiety, depression, self-esteem, purpose and goals, sex and sexuality, gender issues, 2SLGBTQIA+ topics, ADHD and Autism Spectrum, issues related to being a high achieving person, relationship issues, and more. I am always open to discussing other topics not listed here, as well, and can help to find a referral if they don't fall under my area of competence. 

I offer virtual/online counselling across Canada. I am licensed as a Registered Provisional Psychologist for work with clients from Alberta, Quebec, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick. I offer free 15-minute consultations so that you can ask questions about therapy and get a sense of whether I'd be the right fit for you. Sessions are priced at $200/hr for 50 minutes and $300/hr for 75 minutes, both online and in-person in Edmonton. My services are covered by most health insurance plans, depending on the policy details.

Sincerely,
Jackson Hinton (he/him), BA, BSc, MACP, Registered Provisional Psychologist
