About Dr. Jennifer Primmer, Ph.D., CT, MPCC, RPC, CCTP
At Higher Ground Counselling and Wellness, I provide individual and couples therapy to members of the general public and first responders who have experienced traumatic events of different kinds. I also treat other healthcare providers, including Counsellors, Social Workers, and Nurses. I routinely work with individuals & couples facing a range of mental health and adjustment concerns. Some of these have included post-traumatic stress disorder, anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, relationship issues, family of origin and attachment based trauma, stress management, grief & loss, anger/aggression, & other emotional & behavioral issues. I am also regularly engaged to speak at community-based events on topics such as trauma, resiliency, work-life balance, & non-verbal communication/behavior.
I am committed to employing evidence-based treatments in my practice to better assist my clients overcome challenges and increase their quality of life. I believe that effective counselling fundamentally involves working both with the mind and the manifestation of emotional experiences stored in the body.
Advanced Hypnotherapy is Psychotherapy that uses the natural, relaxed state of hypnosis to access the subconscious part of your mind. Through the subconscious mind, one can create positive and lasting changes. If you want to overcome self-limiting thoughts, feelings, or behaviors, your subconscious mind is a powerful tool in creating that change.
Higher Ground Counselling & Wellness is a trauma-informed clinic dedicated to providing a safe and supportive environment for you to reach your therapeutic goals.
