There are so many layers of self that relax for me in Jessie’s presence… she doesn’t need me to be less queer, more or less evolved, more or less healed, more or less able, more or less new age, or anything other than what I am. She listens and intuits and asks and offers with sensitivity and compassion. My sessions with her have been an integral part of my healing process over the past year. I feel her willingness to lead, and always a responsiveness toward collaboration in order to fully meet me where I am. – Natasha

I approach all of my work with the heart and hands of a Midwife. I know what it means to create a safe space for things to be born.
