About Jilysa
Jilysa Haye| MSW, RSW
Registered Social Worker and Psychotherapist
Jilysa is accepting new clients!
Hi there! I’m so glad you’re here. My name is Jilysa Haye, and I truly appreciate you taking the time to get to know me.
I’ve worked with people who have struggled with everything from low self-esteem and anxiety to trauma, navigating sexual identity, and learning how to set healthy boundaries. My approach is all about finding what works for you. I draw on a variety of therapeutic approaches—including mindfulness, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT), and Narrative Therapy. I have a Bachelor’s degree in Social Work from Wilfrid Laurier University and a Master’s degree in Social Work from the University of Windsor.
I’m here to offer you a space where you can talk through whatever challenges you’re facing, without judgment or pressure. My goal is to support you in finding the tools and strategies that will help you grow, build self-compassion, and handle life’s ups and downs with more ease. I want our time together to be a space where you feel safe enough to cry, laugh, and reflect, all while discovering the path that feels right for you.
I’m excited to connect with you and support you as you take the next step in your journey!
