ABOUT ME
We Provide Support That Meets You Where You Are
Jessa Turner, MPCC
Founder & Counsellor
Hello, I’m Jessa Turner, a Master Practitioner in Clinical Counselling – Provisional (MPCC-P) and founder of Trueself Counselling. My path into counselling began over 36 years ago through my own experiences as a client, along with the early loss of a close family member to suicide—shaping my understanding of the importance of compassionate, accessible mental health care.
With over 10 years of experience in mental health advocacy and crisis support, I now work with adults and teens navigating anxiety, stress, burnout, and life transitions. I offer a safe, supportive space to explore your experiences, build practical coping strategies, and reconnect with your true self.
“Counselling is about creating space to understand yourself more clearly and move forward with confidence.”

TESTIMONIALs
What Our Client Says
We felt stuck having the same arguments over and over and didn’t know how to communicate without things escalating. Counselling helped us slow down, understand each other’s perspectives, and learn healthier ways to talk through difficult issues. We both feel more heard and connected.

Couple, 35 & 37
Our teen had been struggling with anxiety and was having a hard time opening up to anyone. Jessa created a safe and supportive environment where they felt comfortable talking. We’ve seen such a positive change in their confidence and ability to manage their emotions.

Parent of teen
Moving to a new city and starting a new job felt overwhelming. Counselling helped me navigate the changes with clarity and calm.
