Janice Gill
she/her; MSW, RSW, Registered Social Worker, RYT 200
Janice is an integrative psychotherapist, clinical supervisor, yoga & meditation teacher, college professor, world traveller, and lifelong learner. She is an ally, an advocate, and a holder of hope.
Janice values authenticity, compassion, and connection, and always exemplifies these qualities whether providing a learning, healing, or reflective space for others. Janice believes in the importance of mindful breathing, compassionate curiosity, spending time in nature, and appropriately placed humour.
Janice works with individuals grappling with Anxiety and/or Attachment and relationship-related concerns, who are looking to explore patterns of perfectionism, people-pleasing, and overachievement, while connecting with and honouring their most authentic selves. She also supports folks in the 2SLGBTQIA+ community, of which she is a proud member. Janice has completed a certificate in Integrative Sex and Couples Therapy, and enjoys supporting folks with all things love, sex, and relationships.
Janice's professional practice mirrors that of her personal beliefs, values, and ethics, which includes (an imperfect and ever-evolving) commitment and dedication to anti-oppression, anti-racism, anti-homophobia, and ultimately, a critical consideration of any of the other “isms” or oppressions of marginalized individuals and groups.
Janice utilizes a down to earth approach, incorporating genuine connection and, where appropriate, a sense of humour--A playful approach to life's sometimes serious problems, if you will! She is passionate about understanding what's at the root of present-day challenges, including our beliefs about others, the world, and ourselves. She helps folks understand and normalize thought and behaviour patterns and helps them to find new ways of coping and being in the world that aligns with one's values, hopes, dreams, and desires.
When her therapist hat is off (is it ever though?!), Janice enjoys spending every moment she can in nature. She also enjoys travel, writing, watching musicals, playing sports, staying active, and upholding a strong spiritual and meditation practice.
