Jess Jarris is a compassionate and dedicated somatic-based counselor who aims to support individuals in rediscovering their innate wisdom and sense of belonging. She understands that many challenges people face stem from feelings of separation—whether from caregivers, their community, or even their own bodies and hearts. Jess believes that healing often begins with reaching out for guidance and reestablishing connections. Her clients frequently seek her expertise to reconnect with their sense of self and to embody their core values. With a focus on identity explorations, anxiety, stress, grief/loss, body image, disordered eating, spirituality, and trauma healing, Jess takes an empathic and collaborative approach. Together, she and her clients explore how systemic forces shape their lived experiences. Drawing on mindfulness and body-based therapies such as yoga therapy and Somatic Experiencing, Jess's work is deeply informed by principles of social justice, anti-racism, neurobiology, attachment theory, and HAES (Health at Every Size). Listening to one's embodied wisdom is regarded by Jess as a radical act, serving as an empowering guide toward living a life aligned with personal values and inherent worth. She wholeheartedly supports individuals in identifying their needs throughout their healing journey and is honored to walk alongside them in this transformative process.
