Kia Ora! My name is Jess and I am a somatic counsellor, sensorimotor psychotherapist, and creative arts therapist. I work with adult clients across the whole wellbeing spectrum: from people who want to get more out of their life, find a deeper sense of self, or connect to their body; to those that have experienced trauma, struggling with basic tasks of daily living. Many have found traditional cognition based talk therapy less helpful or do not know yet how to put their experiences into words. No matter your reasons or motivations, I am here to create a space in which we can explore where you are, what you want, and what you need.
I am a body-based therapist, meaning that in addition to verbally exploring your experiences and developing cognitive tools to move you forward, I further involve the body and those non-verbal cues and experiences to get you where you want to be. I work from a neurobiology perspective and, hence, focus on repatterining automatic responses to create change.
I know that taking the first step and reaching out sometimes feels like the hardest one. Please know that by contacting me you do not sign away your options. I always thrive to empower my clients in their decision making and welcome initial curiosity about me or the way I work, even if you are not sure you would want to commit short or long term.
