Jessie Powell
My goal is to provide a supportive, safe, and non-judgmental space for my clients to explore their journey of self-awareness, change and transformation. I have training in holistic and integrative practices, incorporating yoga, mindfulness, breath-work, and meditation. I believe the mind, body, and soul are interlaced and therefore counseling should address the full self.
I bring 8 years of experience working with children, teens, adults, and families. I received my Masters degree in Holistic Counseling Studies from Lesley University in Cambridge, Massachusetts. I worked in Boston and Providence for several years before I decided to recently move to the beautiful South Florida. I have worked in addiction treatment, crisis intervention, trauma & grief therapy, family systems therapy, and child play therapy. I draw from evidence-based models, training in mind-body integration and trauma focused cognitive behavioral therapy.
I strongly respect and applaud you for having the courage it takes to reach out for help. I will always strive to meet my clients right where they are at. Moving through discomfort, pain, and sadness so that healing, empowerment, and relief can bloom. Through a trusting, supportive, and collaborative approach, we can work together to help you navigate the rough patches in life. You do not need to live a life of suffering, there is hope and healing within your reach.
