Our Team

Jill Hodgson, BA Psy Soc MSW RSW CACII

My journey as a Registered Social Worker emerged within the truth of our shared humanity, one uncertain step at a time. Each step taken was a response to a relentless inner calling for growth, to embrace my own beautiful human journey and to strive to be authentic in all my moments. Through my own journeying, I have developed a deep passion for supporting others along their path of self-acceptance and courage, as they strive towards the highest levels of health and well-being possible. 

As a Clinical Social Worker, I have sought to explore modalities that recognize the complexity and dynamism of the human experience. My journey of working for 17 years in clinical mental health has led me to an approach that embraces the mind-body connection while de-pathologizing our human challenges. This approach seeks to understand the impact of both trauma and larger dysfunctional social narratives on the development of mental health challenges, addictions, and challenging adaptive human behaviours. 

I strive to embrace an integrative approach based on our increasing understanding of the neuro-physiology of trauma and the central nervous system which weaves together my roles as a Clinical Registered Social Worker, Certified Trauma Professional, Certified Yoga Teacher, Brainspotting Practitioner (Phase I, Phase II, Digging Roots Developmental Trauma approach to BSP, in process training on Brainspotting and Dissociative Disorders), Narrative practitioner, Motivational Interviewing, and a specialization in Therapeutic Modalities in Mindfulness (ACT, MBCT, MBSR, DBT, Positive Psychology, Mindfulness for Trauma.

Most importantly, I seek to use the incredible power inherent in the client-therapist relationship, rooted in attunement, creating a space of unconditional acceptance and compassion.
