North Brook CPA

Jessica Cheaib, CPA

After graduating from the University of Toronto in 2010, I pursued a career in accounting. I worked for large and small accounting firms, and at a Financial Institution as a Manager. After working in back-end offices for more than 10 years, I realized my passion was client facing and helping people directly. I developed that entrepreneurial itch and so opened up my own accounting practice.

When I’m not at the office, I can be found exploring Canada’s Provincial and National parks. I’m an avid camper and a sports and fitness enthusiast. Some of my favourite activities include mountain biking, rock climbing, ultimate frisbee and softball. I’ve even hit an over-the-fence grand slam. What a moment!

Blueprint Counselling

Zachary Templeman, RP (Qualifying)

I’ve had my therapy practice since 2022 and I have over 10 years of experience supporting queer and trans communities in various settings including facilitating peer support groups, supporting folks through gender affirmation, and organizing community events. I support both individuals and couples and I have found that financial stress often enters the therapy room. I practice Relational Psychotherapy, which means that I am interested in how your past experiences shape your current experiences. This is also true for your relationship with money. We can process shame or anxiety, develop healthier financial behaviours, and heal from underlying trauma, all of which can impact your feelings of financial security.
