Hi, I am Jess
LLPC, Intuitive Eating Coach
Growing up in rural Michigan taught me the importance of community and connection, inspiring my journey in social advocacy and counseling. In our telehealth sessions, I create a supportive, non-judgmental space where you can share your experiences openly. As a neurodiverse individual, I’m committed to empowering diverse communities, including LGBTQIA+ and HAES. My personal journey toward body acceptance has transformed my perspective, and my mission is to help others find joy and self-acceptance. Together, we can navigate your path to healing and empowerment!
Let's Work Together
Growing up in rural Michigan, I learned the incredible value of community and human connection early on. My experience in nonprofit work deepened my appreciation for communal support, allowing me to advocate for individuals and families, especially survivors of crime and violence. This work ignited my passion for social advocacy and inspired me to pursue a degree in counseling, blending my background in nonprofit involvement, social justice advocacy, and victim services.
In our telehealth sessions, I prioritize a close, supportive relationship where you can feel comfortable sharing your experiences. I adopt a non-judgmental approach, drawing from my personal experience as a neurodiverse individual to connect with various communities. I use a range of counseling techniques tailored to your needs, including EMDR, and I am committed to supporting the LGBTQIA+, HAES, and ENM/poly communities, emphasizing individual agency and autonomy.
My journey toward body acceptance has been transformative. I’ve faced societal pressures around body image but have found empowerment through the principles of Health At Every Size (HAES). This perspective allows me to approach challenges with compassion and fosters a healthier relationship with food and body image. My mission is to support others on their journeys to self-acceptance and well-being, helping them find peace and joy in their own bodies. Together, we can navigate these paths toward healing and empowerment!
