Introduction

Hi, I’m Jess Garman, a trauma-informed, client-centered EMDR therapist. I created my practice to offer a warm, grounded space where you can feel supported while making meaningful changes in your life. I work with people at all stages of life. Many of my clients are women, artists and creatives, couples, parents, young adults, queer and LGBTQ+ clients, and people navigating pregnancy, birth, postpartum transitions, fertility and infertility, pregnancy loss, and other life experiences that can leave a lasting emotional impact. I’m especially passionate about using EMDR to help clients heal from trauma and reconnect with a greater sense of safety, confidence, and self-trust. My approach is collaborative and integrative, drawing from EMDR, somatic therapy, mindfulness, narrative therapy, and parts work. Whether you’re working through a specific experience, navigating a major transition, or simply feeling stuck, my goal is to help you feel more connected to yourself and supported as you move toward the life you want.
