Quinn has worked at Jewish Family Services (JFS) since 2016 starting as a summer student. She has had the advantage of working in many departments learning various positions to better support people within the agency. She has experience working with seniors with cognitive impairments, vulnerable populations such as low-income Jewish individuals, children, students of all ages, adults, racialized individuals, persons with disabilities and LGBTQ2S+ community members and is passionate about working with these populations again.
Quinn is a very empathetic and energetic person who can connect with others easily. She is a great listener and observer and values diversity, believing she can learn as much from others, as they can from her. Quinn believes a therapeutic and working relationship should be collaborative, understanding, and supportive of one another.
Quinn prioritizes creating a space that is shared, free of judgment, warm, compassionate, and encouraging, where all individuals feel safe and comfortable, with an understanding that each therapeutic relationship will be different and not everything works for everyone.
Quinn works from a strength based, solution focused perspective, utilising techniques from narrative therapy, emotional-focused therapy, trauma informed therapy, and mindfulness. She believes the mind, heart, body, and spirit are all connected and must be respected during the therapeutic process. Quinn also believes societal pressures and systemic issues impact all individuals and must be taken into account when discussing personal journeys.
Quinn holds both a bachelor and a Master of Social Work, as well as bachelor’s degree in sociology and psychology. She is a registered social worker with the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers, and a member of the Canadian and Ontario Association of Social Workers. She has been working in various non-profit agencies for more than 6 years.

Youth Counselling & Counselling for Young Adults
Rojine believes that an individual’s relationship with themselves is at the core of everything—shaping how they connect with work, relationships, and life as a whole. By nurturing a deep, authentic connection with who they are, individuals empower themselves to create the life they truly desire. As Carl Rogers once said, “The curious paradox is that when I accept myself, just as I am, then I can change.” Rojine understands that exploring one’s inner world can feel overwhelming, and she is here to guide others through the process.
Rojine creates a space where individuals can be themselves—free from judgment and full of possibility. In her sessions, she offers a safe, supportive environment where clients can explore their thoughts and emotions, address the barriers holding them back, and tap into their inner strength. Her mission is to help individuals navigate their journey of self-discovery and healing.
Taking a holistic and personalized approach, Rojine integrates a variety of therapeutic methods to best meet the unique needs of each client. These approaches may include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, Mindfulness-Based Interventions, Internal Family Systems, and Somatic Therapy.
With a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and Sociology and a Master’s in Psychotherapy, Counselling, and Spirituality, Rojine brings a solid academic foundation to her work. Her certification from The Montreal Counselling Center (CRAM) has also deepened her understanding of how individuals relate to themselves and others, enhancing her ability to guide clients toward healing and growth.
