Aftin Jolly
Aftin Jolly is a Registered Clinical Counsellor who takes a practical, hands-on approach to couples therapy, helping partners navigate conflict and build stronger, more intentional connections. She believes love is both a feeling and a daily choice, and focuses on small, meaningful shifts that create real change over time. Shaped by her experience as a child of divorce, she brings a deep understanding of how relationships and transitions impact individuals and families. Clients can expect an active, in-session experience where they practice new ways of communicating and repairing together. She has a special interest in helping couples move out of resentment or “roommate” patterns and reconnect in a new, evolving way. Aftin invites you to come as you are and explore how your relationship can grow into something even stronger.

Booking FAQ
First Session charges each session directly to your credit card. Once each session occurs, and your card is charged, you will receive a PDF receipt to your email with all of the details you will need to get reimbursed (therapist name, license/designation, license number, address, etc). You can then submit the receipt to your insurance company for reimbursement if you have coverage.
We always recommend you check with your insurance provider to confirm what coverage you have.
You are the expert when it comes to knowing who is the right fit. Ensure you’ve watched the therapist video at the top of their profile and see if you get a good feeling from the message and the energy they are putting out. If you feel drawn to speak with them, listen to your gut! Booking a free consultation is a great first step to asses fit.
