I’ve had the pleasure of working professionally with Jessica Pino over the past five years, and her commitment to her own and her team members' clinical excellence is among the best in this field. If you're looking to address the root of your issues, not just the symptoms, I'd highly recommend her team.

I’ve had the honour of knowing and collaborating with Jessica over the last few years, and confidently refer clients to her and her team. They are warm, skilled, and deeply ethical in their work. A wonderful therapist whom I trust wholeheartedly.

I met Jessica at a specialized training we both attended. She is highly intelligent and extremely caring. I would recommend her to everyone in Barrie who is looking for mental health support.

Jessica is a professional who is truly one of a kind. With clients she is warm, flexible, compassionate, and most importantly, human. She is transparent in letting it be known that as therapists, we too have unpleasant emotions and thoughts, and make mistakes in our journey through life. The term "bona fide" is derived from Latin and means "genuine or real". The choice to name her business "Bona Fide Psychotherapy and Consulting" was intentional and reflects her values as a therapist. Jessica is superbly effective in delivering evidence-based psychotherapy to clients, especially in the area of trauma. Her interest in trauma led her to pursue EMDR training and eventually consulting, so that she may help other therapists deliver effective trauma-informed therapy to their own clients. Jessica has been a consultant for my own EMDR clients. Since working together, she has provided me with insights, skills, and perspectives that have built upon my EMDR basic training. Jessica is the epitome of a lifelong learner, as she is continuously attending seminars and trainings, as well as keeping up to date on the latest mental health research. Whether you seek out Jessica's services as a client, or as a consultee, you can be assured that you are receiving quality care, from an individual who prioritizes the success and well-being of others.
