Jennifer Doyle

As an Indigenous counsellor with experience working in academic settings, I bring a trauma-informed and culturally responsive approach to supporting student wellness. My practice is grounded in relational, holistic care, and guided by an intersectional lens that honors the diverse experiences of Indigenous students. I am deeply committed to creating spaces of safety, healing, and empowerment within post-secondary environments.
