Have you ever had a curve ball thrown your way in life and it impacted your outlook on purpose, future, or given you a tainted view on life?
Have you had events that were so much to handle that years after you see the impact on your emotional wellbeing and how you are in relationships?
Our therapists are all equipped to work through traumatic events and help you feel less distressed when you think about the past, while also giving you hope for the future without those often physiological reactions to stress you may be having.
Our vision at iMentalHealth is to create a mental health hub of professionals that are from multiple disciplines in an interdisciplinary approach so that we are supporting people from a holistic perspective of health.
The heart of iMentalHealth is that we have a vision to build a team of practitioners who are passionate about integrative health and who may also have a story of survival or perseverance. We see the importance of the whole person from body, soul, mind and spirit.
Our goal is to help support individuals dealing with lifes challenges and provide them with therapeutic support through use of strategies such as EMDR, CBT and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Gottman Couples Therapy and others.
We hope you allow us to be part of your mental health journey
We are located at Suite 101C and 101B in the Wellness Hub at 200 Carnegie Drive, Saint Albert, AB,
Many people have come to me saying that they have had a bad experience with psychologists and counsellors in the past, which is frustrating because it might make you hesitant about reaching out for help. The other thing to think about is that sometimes, there are therapists that you are just not going to click with and that is just the way things are.
If this is you, it may be helpful to have over the phone to discuss what you are looking for, while also allowing you to ask questions. This is not a therapy session, but a chance to inquire and get a feel for the fit. I believe that a good relationship and authenticity are important in therapy, and would like you to have a better experience with us.
My passion for helping others started with working in homeless shelters. This experience instilled a passion to hear people’s stories and recognize each person as unique and valuable. One of the most difficult times that has shaped much of my journey as a therapist is my own journey being diagnosed with a critical illness near the end of my Masters Degree. Thankfully treatment with a Bone Marrow Transplant work along with amazing support along the way helped me overcome.
One of the ways I recovered was my own work through EMDR Treatment; which I have not only benefitted but been able to utilize and help others heal.

Hello! I am Jilynne, a radically honest therapist who appreciates humor and swearing (if you’re into that). My primary goal in the early stages is to create a space that feels incredibly safe for you. So many people feel stuck and don’t know how to move forward. I can help you look at things from many perspectives (emotional wounds in childhood, harmful thinking patterns, major life changes, and more) so that you no longer feel at a crossroads in life.
I specialize in working with clients struggling with anger, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, and meaning-making. My approach is integrative, consisting of cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), EMDR, and elements of solution-focused therapy. Because each person is SO different, the approach used in sessions will be based on your unique concerns!
Since I will learn a lot about your life, I would like to share a bit about my own. I recently completed my Master’s through Yorkville University and am now a Provisionally registered psychologist. I was born and raised in Edmonton and am married with two cute (but very barky) fur children. I view myself as adventurous in the sense that I will try almost any activity at least once, some not more than once. I enjoy tapping into my playful, childlike side through dancing and singing. I also appreciate moments of stillness and calm such as by taking long, peaceful walks or immersing myself in a novel.
I know that therapy can be scary and vulnerable, and taking this first step can be so overwhelming. Just know that I see you. Not only do I see the challenges that you face, but I see the strengths you already possess. Are you ready to take this journey with me?

If you are unsure of which service area to book, you can simply book an individual or couples appointment and specify with your therapist in your intake what it is you are wanting to work on. Our categories are a way of helping explain our approach to different presenting issues. It is also not limited to these areas. Also if you are in need of immediate support please call the distress line or 811 to reach someone immediately. Thank you for visiting our site.
