Jess sees the therapeutic process as an opportunity to assist clients in self-discovery through the mindful expansion of thought. As a counselor Jess acts as a guide through the journey of becoming a self-directed agent of change, helping navigate the thoughts, feelings, actions, and different parts of “self” that arise along the way. Client input is essential and is encouraged to take an active role in co-creating the path to achieving goals. Jess will work to foster a safe, supportive environment where clients acquire the skills and tools necessary to challenge barriers, identify needs, set boundaries, communicate, and become empowered to align with their authentic self.

Outside of work and educational pursuits, Jess enjoys working out, hanging with dogs, attending concerts, expanding her Nike collection, and adventuring to new places with good humans.
