Jessica Willis

At the heart of Jessica Willis’s practice is a straightforward conviction: people don’t need to have things figured out before asking for help. Working as a Registered Clinical Counsellor in Vancouver, Jessica offers individual, couples, and family counselling through a trauma-informed lens, moving at whatever pace feels right for the person in front of her. Her approach draws on evidence-based methods — including the Gottman Method for relationship work — woven together with genuine warmth, psychoeducation, and skill-building that clients can carry into daily life.

She works with teenagers, adults, and older adults navigating a wide range of difficulties: anxiety, depression, eating concerns, addiction, trauma, personality and mood disorders, and the particular pressures of workplace burnout. Relationship counselling is a particular focus — not only for couples in crisis, but for anyone wanting to communicate more clearly, reconnect after distance, or understand the patterns that keep showing up. That includes the quieter ruptures too, like the pull of a phone that makes a partner feel invisible at the end of a long day.

Jessica holds a Master’s degree and her RCC designation, and sessions are covered by most extended health benefit plans. Online appointments are available, and sliding-scale rates are offered on a case-by-case basis.
