Finding Steady Ground: Somatic Practices & Ancient Wisdom for Trying Times

Jenna Noble, DTCM, R.Ac. is a Doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine and acupuncturist with a deep commitment to holistic, trauma-informed care. With over a decade of experience studying and practicing acupuncture and herbal medicine, she blends ancient wisdom with a modern understanding of the nervous system to help clients find balance and resilience.
Jenna completed her Doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine education at the Kootenay Columbia College of Integrative Health Sciences in Nelson, BC, where she also gained hands-on clinical experience at Nelson Mental Health & Addictions Services. Her thesis explored the integration of trauma-informed care within a TCM framework, shaping her compassionate and individualized approach to healing.

In her practice, Jenna works collaboratively with clients to create tailored treatment plans using acupuncture, herbal medicine, cupping, gua sha, and nutrition. She specializes in supporting women’s health, emotional well-being, stress and nervous system regulation, and chronic or acute pain.
Now based in Prince Edward Island, Jenna runs a private practice with Inbloom Health (formerly EastND), where she helps clients reconnect with their bodies and cultivate lasting well-being. Outside of her work, she is a mother of two and finds joy in yoga, creative expression, and spending time in nature—especially on PEI’s beaches.

Therapist and Founder of Risework Therapy
I am a registered therapist with over eleven years of experience working in mental health. I spent five years in a private practice in Toronto before creating Risework Therapy in 2021.
Risework Therapy is built on authenticity, accessibility, and a modern approach to mental wellness. Our therapists bring their authentic selves to each session—human, compassionate, and down-to-earth—so clients feel safe to do the same.
At Risework, we combine a laid-back approach with evidence-based therapeutic modalities, encouraging the integration of therapy into overall wellness. With virtual therapy available across Canada and partnerships with wellness professionals, we aim to bridge the gap between holistic wellness and mental health, encouraging the prioritization of mental health as an essential part of well-being.
As a therapist I work from a client-centered approach integrating evidence-based practice with an emphasis on the therapeutic relationship. I provide clients with a non-judgmental, comfortable space that facilitates openness and encourages self-exploration. I have an eclectic approach which draws from therapeutic modalities such as Emotion Focused Therapy, Internal Family Systems, Polyvagal Theory, Mindfulness-Based Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). With a compassionate lens, I encourage clients to explore the inter-relatedness between their thoughts, behaviours and emotions, helping to identify patterns that no longer serve them.
I aim to support my clients as they gain a better understanding of themselves & build their sense of worth while learning to diminish internal obstacles which get in the way of developing and reaching personal goals.
