Getting to know Jessica Paris
I am a compassionate and equity-driven counselor dedicated to helping clients heal, reframe their identities, and build lasting resilience. My practice is grounded in person-centered techniques and creative methodologies, such as Narrative PhotoTherapy™ and expressive arts, to promote deep self-discovery and emotional visibility. With over 10 years of experience in transformative leadership and inclusive strategy, I bridge the gap between counseling theory and real-world empowerment. I specialize in supporting individuals through grief and loss, maternal mental health, and the unique challenges faced by Black women in leadership, entrepreneurship, and activism.
The provider is supervised by Arica Bibbs.
What should a new client know about working with you?
Creative & Visual Approach: I integrate Narrative PhotoTherapy™ and expressive arts into our sessions to help you process emotions that words alone may not capture.
Equity-Centered Care: My work is rooted in cultural competence and inclusivity, ensuring a safe space for diverse perspectives and identities.
Specialized Expertise: I have significant experience helping clients navigate complex grief, life transitions, and the "role strain" often associated with maternal mental health and professional leadership.
Academic Dedication: I am currently advancing my expertise through an Ed.D. in Transformative Leadership and an M.A. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling
What is your typical process for working with clients?
Empathetic Discovery: We begin by establishing a person-centered foundation where your unique story and identity are the priority.
Collaborative Goal Setting: I utilize solution-focused and narrative-based approaches to help you reframe your identity and develop strategies for emotional healing.
Integrative Techniques: Depending on your needs, we may use expressive arts or visual methodologies to explore "emotional visibility" and uncover deeper insights into your experiences.
Culturally Responsive Planning: Every treatment plan is tailored to be culturally sensitive, drawing on my background in Multicultural Women’s and Gender Studies to ensure your specific social and professional context is honored.
