Jason Carter
Practicum Counsellor
MACP (ongoing), BASc, Diploma in Fitness and Health Promotion
Hi, my name is Jason Carter. My background is in the fitness industry where I began personal training in my mid-twenties and enjoyed helping clients attain fitness goals. Over time, I realized that I wanted to help clients with their mental health as well, and began working on my Masters of Arts in Counselling Psychology. I really believe that mental and physical health go hand-in-hand, and consistent work is the key to long term success in both aspects. I strive to create an inclusive space that allows clients to truly open up while we work together to find individualized strategies for long term changes.
I believe that the tools to long term success need to fit as seamlessly into our lives as possible, and should build off of existing strengths and interests. Finding these tools are what allow us to create wellness routines that we not only stick with, but enjoy doing. I spend my free time with my fiancée, my dog, my friends and family, lifting weights, and I get outside to hike, bike, swim, snowboard, and ride my dirt bike as much as I can.
