About Jess
In private sessions or through group therapy, Jess incorporates somatic dance movement, psycho-social therapy, bio-energetics, touch and sense therapy, sound healing, spiritual guidance and holistic health mentorship. She specialises in adaptive Bodywork practices and Dance Movement Therapy for:
Mental health,

Queer and Transgender communities.
Jess is an active member of the queer community and identifies as Genderfluid (she/they). She practices polyamory as a relationship structure and uses relationship anarchy (RA) to navigate new and old connections. Over the years she has built solid communication skills and ethical practices, using radical self care strategies to embody authentic living as a way of life.
Jess is a self starter and has built successful businesses she maintains today. She has experienced mental illnesses, been a victim of abuse, experienced decades of silent disability and life threatening diseases. She offers a wealth of lived experience and knowledge around body awareness practices. Jess is a lover of nature and finds earthing and solitude a grounding practice. She will often be seen in far off destinations camping solo around Australia.
Jess’s childhood was enveloped by an immediate family that shared love through the joys of music, dance and theatre. Receiving formal training at the Western Australian Academy in Performance Art in primary school years, she continued during adolescence to attend various institutes and schools to gain training in music, vocal, dance and theatre aspects of performance art.
They have come full circle with post graduate studies in Somatics and Dance Movement Therapy which is expected to complete in 2025.
Jess is currently leading Somatics Dance Movement Therapy and Psychotherapy sessions under remote supervision.
