Jessica's Coaching Style
When you work with me, you will overcome the limitations that traditional talk therapy and personal development work often face.
My approach is different because it focuses on your body and physiology to release traumatic events from the bottom up rather than just understanding them from the top down.
If you’ve tried other treatments without success, keep reading to learn why my method stands out.
Methods I Use:
Somatic Experiencing
✦ ✦ ✦
Your body holds the wisdom needed for your healing journey. By pausing to listen, stress and emotions naturally regulate themselves, bringing you to a place of grounding and presence.
Plant Medicine
✦ ✦ ✦
Our minds often block us from fully experiencing pain, sometimes too effectively. Plant medicines help dissolve these protective layers, allowing deeper healing that traditional practices may not reach.
Inner Child & Parts Work
✦ ✦ ✦
Heal the wounded parts of yourself to foster a more profound sense of wholeness and authenticity. When we mend the past versions of ourselves that were harmed, the adult version is free to live with more conscious control and creativity.
Boundary Re-establishment
✦ ✦ ✦
Learn to set and maintain healthy boundaries, which are essential for protecting your peace and fostering healthier relationships.
What is Somatic Experiencing?
Somatic Experiencing (SE) offers a unique and highly effective approach to healing trauma that distinguishes it from traditional therapy in several key ways:
Body-Oriented Techniques: SE recognizes that trauma is deeply ingrained in the body's physiology. It integrates techniques that address the physical manifestations of trauma, allowing you to access and process traumatic memories and emotions stored in your body.
Nervous System Regulation: SE helps regulate your autonomic nervous system, reducing symptoms of hyperarousal or hypoarousal commonly associated with trauma. This sets SE apart from traditional talk therapy, which may not directly target these physiological aspects.
Completion of Self-Protective Responses: SE facilitates the discharge of stored survival energy by completing the natural fight, flight or freeze responses that were interrupted during the traumatic experience. This process can lead to a sense of empowerment and resolution that may not be achieved through traditional therapy alone.
Collaborative and Client-Centered: SE empowers you to guide your healing process. This emphasis on self-discovery fosters a sense of agency and autonomy in your healing journey.
The Power of Plant Medicine
Indigenous plant medicine and psychedelic healing offer transformative potential that traditional therapy cannot reach alone. These modalities engage you in deeply immersive processes, providing access to altered states of consciousness that can reveal hidden insights, unlock repressed emotions, and foster profound spiritual experiences.
Holistic Approach: These traditions encompass the interconnectedness of mind, body, and spirit, recognizing the inherent wisdom of the natural world to facilitate healing on multiple levels.
Experiential Healing: Unlike traditional therapy, plant medicine work allows you to explore the depths of your psyche and access transformative healing potential through immersive experiences.
Research-Backed Results: Studies have shown that psychedelic healing can produce profound and lasting therapeutic effects, often surpassing those of traditional therapy or antidepressants.
