Getting to know Jessica Badilla
I am a licensed professional counselor, holding a master's degree in mental health, a bachelor's in psychology, as well as a 200hr yoga and mindfulness teacher certification.
Throughout my career, I have witnessed the incredible capacity for self-healing within countless individuals when given the time and space to reflect safely. I am committed to helping you access your own natural power to thrive in your environment. Over the years, I have worked in community clinics, women’s shelters, child development centers, as well as private practice settings. My specialty is in grief & loss, anxiety, and spirituality.
My philosophy: No one-size-fits-all solutions. Your healing is unique. Here, you are invited to co-create a path that aligns with your values and life story. My passion is discovering which interventions and techniques will resonate most with you.
In my free time, I embrace sound healing, movement, and meditation when processing experiences, thoughts, and emotions. I also volunteer at a local farm sanctuary where rescued animals are given a safe home and love. I enjoy meeting those from all walks of life and welcome you to remove the mask for just a moment and freely be yourself.
What should a new client know about working with you?
Welcome to your safe space. I’m so happy you’re here! In this judgement-free container, you are invited to express all the various versions of yourself (the loving, patient parts and the angry, critical parts too).
Together, let’s cultivate a sense of curiosity and compassion towards all that comes up. While this requires a commitment of kindness and consistency to yourself, please keep in mind:
You are worthy of all the time and space it takes to heal.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
I am in awe of the human spirit’s ability to keep moving forward, despite suffering, confusion, and hopelessness. I often imagine a society where we do not feign our happiness.
But do we know how to take care of our sorrow? Did we ever really learn how to articulate our anger without losing ourselves? Why do we excel in pleasing people, but still aren’t sure what a proper boundary is?
In my therapy sessions, we do not underestimate our ability to tend to our wounds. Here, we practice holding space for all emotions.
My approach is person-centered, weaving together acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) with cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT). Finding the unique interventions that are most impactful for you is my heartfelt offering. Personalized strategies may include somatic embodiment, sound healing with singing bowls, intentional movements, and meditations crafted just for you.
