Jessica My Story

Through the shadows
I step into my light

I feel here it is important for me to share my depths with truthfulness, integrity and authenticity.

I have lived with deep rooted trauma caused by sexual assault, I have lived with addictions, neurodiversity, relationship break-downs, ancestral woundings, poor belief systems, impulsive behavioural patterns; and I have often lived with a sense of ‘why am I here?’ – until I was thrown into my own healing journey and rememberings through major life events scattered throughout my life. I walk the path of the wounded healer having healed from a diagnoses of Complex Post-Traumatic-Stress-Disorder, holding the notion; I am not my diagnosis.

Over the years of young adolescence and adulthood I plummeted into the darkest depths of the shadows; this is where I learnt to explore – ‘who am I?’, ‘where am I going?’, and ‘where do I come from?’ – though I didn’t always know it at the time, however what I did know was my deep spirituality and intuitive nature.

I have beautifully fond memories as a small girl of journeying and meditating, whilst being completely lost in the rhythmic musical sounds of dolphins and the ocean.

Shining light on my shadows, finding comfort within discomfort, reaching out to hold the hand of my inner child and bringing her home, integrating my mind, body and soul to work in alignment rather than disassociation and re-writing my own narrative to create my own destiny; I am now able to live with more peace and contentment within all realms of my life.

With a degree in Bachelor of Science in Applied Social Sciences (Criminology and Psychological Studies) alongside a Level 5 Diploma in Leadership for Health and Social Care and Children and Young People's Services (Adult Management), I bring a rich depth of insight into the human experience. I have worked closely since 2010 with young children and adults within various complex care settings who have varying capabilities, mental and physical health conditions, acquired injuries such as brain and spinal cord injuries and those who are at the end of life. Over these years I have had various clinical and non-clinical training — including moving and handling, medication administration, behaviour support, palliative care, and person-centred care planning — working alongside multidisciplinary teams in residential, supported living and community settings.

Over the years I have studied and trained in depth Traditional Healing Arts, namely Shamanism and Reiki. I am a certified Usui Holy Fire® Reiki Master Teacher and Shamanic 'Energy Medicine' Practitioner, studying with some of the Q'ero folk residing in the Andes, Peru. Alongside this I have completed a 200 hour Hatha Yoga Teacher Training and hold a deep passion for Yogic Philosophy and furthering my knowledge through various Yoga trainings.

I am currently working towards a Level 3 Diploma in Counselling Skills, to both support with my own personal growth and self-awareness and others.

I am a mother, and walking this path alongside my daughter brings about such a depth of beauty, magic and complete wonderment. My daughter continues to fuel me with inspiration.

I believe that every life experience, teaching, and training I have encountered personally and professionally has been a conscious preparation — refining my awareness, compassion, and wisdom — to presently support individuals, groups, and sacred retreat spaces within the realms of deep inner healing.

I endeavour to create a safe, consensual and judgement-free space whereby I am inclusive and welcoming to people across the entire spectrum of sexual orientation, gender identity, and relationship structure, including the BDSM and kink communities.

I honour and welcome people of all ages, disability, gender reassignment, marriage or civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion, belief and culture, and LGBTQIA+, with an affirming, shame free and judgement free approach.
