I serve teens and adults ages 16yo and older. I also have the ability to see couples. I am English-speaking only.

As an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist, I focus on guiding individuals, couples, and families towards healthier, more fulfilling relationships.

I am Jessy, a non-binary and queer professional dedicated to providing compassionate and affirming care for all LGBTQ+ individuals. Fluent in both Chinese and English, I specialize in supporting diverse clients, particularly those who are BIPOC. My journey navigating my own identity and relationships, along with my background as a former sex worker, has given me a deep understanding of the unique challenges faced within these communities.

In my practice, I offer specialized services tailored to LGBTQ+ individuals, including kink-affirming and trans-affirming care, as well as support for ENM relationships. My therapeutic approach blends techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness, somatic work, Gestalt therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and Internal Family Systems (IFS). As a longtime practitioner of the Alexander Technique, I incorporate somatic methods to help clients reconnect with and understand their bodies on a deeper level.

Currently, I am training to become a licensed sex therapist, with a focus on guiding clients through gender and sexuality exploration and addressing issues related to sex and sexual trauma. Whether you are seeking support for anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship difficulties, or navigating complex issues related to gender and sexuality, I am here to walk alongside you on your journey toward healing and self-discovery. My collaborative approach ensures that your voice is heard and valued, and together, we can work towards achieving your personal and therapeutic goals.

As a bilingual therapist fluent in both Chinese and English, I am uniquely positioned to provide culturally competent care to Chinese-speaking clients. This includes navigating issues related to immigration, acculturation, and the intersection of cultural identity with gender and sexuality.

My rich background in theater, film, visual design, music, creative writing, dance, and singing allows me to integrate creative and artistic elements into my therapeutic work. This artistic integration is especially beneficial for clients who find it challenging to articulate their feelings through words alone. By incorporating these creative and nonverbal avenues for self-expression, I aim to offer a holistic approach to healing.

I am continuously involved in further education and professional development to enhance my competence in LGBTQ+ care. Iregularly attend conferences, workshops, and training sessions to stay updated on the latest mental health care practices for these communities, ensuring that I offer informed and effective care.

I work well with people who are interested in therapy and the complexities of our experiences - this could include professional decision making, struggling with complicated family relationships and dynamics, and/or the intersections of our identities. I often work with clients who feel tired, confused, scared, hurt, avoid pleasure, don’t feel like they’re good enough, outcasted, silenced, misunderstood and like they’re “too much.” They may fear that they’ll never get better, that others will leave them, that being close to someone else or loved is scary, or that they are unlovable and undeserving of love.

In our work together, I will show up committed to building trust, with an awareness of your strengths and a conversational style that adds lightness. My goal here is to join you as a collaborator in your therapy process, confidence building and exploration of any experiences that have informed who you are today.

I welcome those who are interested in therapy to a safe, strengths-based and collaborative space. This is a space where we will be learning and getting to know you! In this space your goals are yours for the taking and we can discuss anything! I will work with you to achieve your goals by utilizing a variety of modalities and interventions that aid in conceptualizing and interpreting our life experiences. As a result, you will have the opportunity to observe and dismantle and recreate patterns of behavior and put thought into what change looks like for you. Everyone is deserving of a space to process, explore, question, feel validation, challenge their experiences, and grow! I greatly look forward to working with you!

I have specialized training and expertise in working with: gender, sexuality, poly/non-monogamy, kink, people and communities of color, relationships, trauma, sexual trauma, chronic health, body image & self-esteem, anxiety, stress, difficulties with motivation, depression and work-place stress and professional decision-making.

Health First and Sliding Scale available.

Professional specialties and skills:

I employ a holistic approach to therapy, incorporating biological, social, spiritual, cultural, and psychological aspects. My practice is eclectic, primarily grounded in an existential-humanistic perspective.

My coursework encompassed essential subjects such as Counseling Theory, Human LifeSpan Development, Diagnosis, Appraisal and Assessment in Counseling, Legal and Ethics, Crisis and Trauma in Counseling, Couples Counseling, and Addiction Counseling.

During my internship I helped middle school students from immigrant families and young adults grappling with career choices, family relationship issues, and friendship/intimate relationship challenges.

Language(s) spoken:

Populations served - ages, concerns, etc.:

I focus on helping individual adults older than 17 and couples. Specifically, I help adults that have chosen alternative lifestyles and are grappling with challenges that related to their lifestyles, including: people having nontraditional intimate relationships, women struggling with fertility issues due to medical conditions such as endometriosis, digital nomads/immigrants, and people who are interested in trying psychedelics.

I am dedicated to providing compassionate and supportive therapy to transitional aged youth and adults. I aim to honor the diversity of each client and help foster growth, empowerment, resiliency, and freedom of self-expression. My work is based on the fundamental belief that all of us have the right to live the lifestyle that we chose and within that context to feel supported and validated. Individuals of all cultures, ethnicity, race, gender, class backgrounds, and sexual orientations are welcome.

I offer individual therapy to adults working through anxiety, depression, trauma, anger, life transitions, and relationship issues. I especially love working with folks who are part of the trans, queer/LGBT+, non-monogamous, and kink/BDSM communities. I also offer assessment for ADHD, personality questions, and cognitive concerns.

Is your anxious mind driving you crazy? Are your relationships painful or confusing? Are you trying to change your life for the better but having trouble actually accomplishing it?

Maybe you are:

*    In a life transition -- recently experienced the loss or change of a relationship,
     job, or other significant thing in your life
*    Finding that your relationships are unfulfilled or troubled
*    At a crossroad of sorts, needing to make important changes in your life
*    Longing for more meaning, purpose, and/or success in your life
*    Feeling stressed, anxious, or depressed

If any of these are true for you, therapy and relationship coaching may be what you’re looking for. I would love to work with you. As a clinical social worker and relationship coach, I’ve helped hundreds of people to achieve great results in their emotional/mental/physical health and well-being, as well as in their relationships with friends, co-workers, and loved ones. I welcome you to be in touch for a free consultation. - Does online consultation - Does phone consultation

Professional specialties and skills - I integrate interventions from a variety of scientifically supported treatments including humanistic, existential, acceptance and commitment, relational, cultural, emotion-focused, cognitive-behavioral, and family systems theory. I strongly believe that, regardless of therapeutic approach, the counseling relationship is the most influential factor in therapy. Our connection with one another as humans is crucial. I strive to create an environment that honors each person’s autonomy and experiences in the context of their unique and intersecting identities.

I am an ally and I work with clients who practice ethical non-monogamy. I support clients work on anxiety, depression, grief, relationship, attachment, emotional regulation, communication, sexuality, intimacy, infidelity and trauma.

I’ve often wondered where the phrase “falling in love” came from. The “in love” part sounds great, but the hazard of “falling” is that most people get hurt when they fall. I am as much a romantic as the next person, but I’m not in favor of stumbling headfirst into a relationship (as opposed to a fling) without considering all the known risks and benefits - “known” being the crucial word. There are so many unknowns about a partner or lover that we only discover by being in relationship with them, that it behooves us to intelligently consider the known aspects as we face them. I’m of the belief that we do not choose who we fall in love with, which has some inherent risks, so the more insight we can gather about all the parties in the relationship, the better our chance of success will be.

As a therapist, I believe the best way - indeed, the only way - to face the challenges in any intimate relationship is with fearless honesty. How can I trust that my lover’s acceptance of me is genuine if I have not shown him or her my true self? But being vulnerable in a relationship is a scary proposition, and sometimes you may need the help of someone else. As a therapist, I am in a unique position to guide and coach you into learning to develop that habit of honesty, which is essential to safe and healthy intimate relationships. For ethical non-monogamous, polyamorous, or throuple relationships, the need for honesty among all parties is even more essential, and I will honor every risk you take in therapy. I will be your ally, without judgment or shame, as I support you through your journey.

Jodie Voth is a Marriage and Family Therapist located in Selkirk, MB. Selkirk is a short drive from the city of Winnipeg. I work with people individually and within their relationships, according to their desires and needs for therapy. As a kink-aware and poly-friendly therapist I won’t assume that the issue that brings you to therapy is caused by your kink or poly orientation. I will be interested in your desire for change and your definition of success, rather than imposing someone else’s ideals upon you. I will be curious about whether/how your sexual identity and lifestyle affect other areas and relationships in your life. I can help you to clarify the boundaries of your poly/BDSM relationship and create an agreement that honors the needs and wishes of you and your partner(s). I have a high standard for my work and consult regularly with colleagues who are also sensitive to the needs of the kink/poly community.
