Getting to know Jessica Chouinard

Jessica’s approach to therapy is based on a client-centered and trauma-informed perspective. She believes the client is in the driver’s seat, while the clinician is the passenger, helping guide and support where the client wants to go. Jessica views the client as taking an active and direct role in their own treatment and life, with the clinician supporting that journey. Her goal is to empower clients to increase self-awareness and understanding through an array of modalities, including cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavioral therapy. Working from a trauma-informed care perspective, Jessica focuses on shifting from “what’s wrong with you” to “tell me more about what you experienced.” Supporting a trauma-aware approach, she believes in treating the body, mind, and spirit collectively to promote balance in all areas of the client’s life. Trauma, as well as many other mental health challenges, affect not only the mind but also the body and personal belief system. Jessica believes growth in all three areas can greatly improve many symptoms of mental anguish and life stressors. She earned her Bachelor’s degree, Master’s in Professional Counseling, and Post-Master’s Certificate from Grand Canyon University.
