Meet Jessica Eden LCSW, LAC, ADS

You already have everything you need, within you

Unleash your inner power

Jessica Eden LCSW, LAC

Healing is hard, but staying stuck is even harder
 

You're here because there's something else you're seeking. You're sick of living joyless and disconnected, and you're ready to take a deep dive within to realign your mind, body and spirit at a soul level.  

I believe in getting back in touch with our soul selves, breaking out of our box, and stepping into joy, through integrating spirituality and the natural world into our healing journey. 

 

Commonly, spirituality and emotions/energy held in the body are left out of therapy, focusing instead solely on thoughts, behaviors and skills. While these are all needed components of personal growth and transformation, leaving out the experiences of the body and the spirit means missing a huge chunk of ourselves and often barely scratching the surface. 

My approach is grounded in nature, mindfulness and spiritual alignment, helping clients tap into their own intuition and define their own spirituality and connection to something greater for themselves. 

 

As a result, individuals get to go from disconnected and numb to feeling more present, and finding a sense of meaning, connection and joy in relationship with themselves, others, and the world around.

Spiritually-inclusive


grounded in connection

Spirituality to me is anything that gives you a connection, a sense of meaning and purpose, or a belief in something outside of yourself.

 

Your spirituality is yours alone and our work together encourages you to create your own definition through exploring that from within.

 

Spiritual connection may take all shapes and forms - love, nature, music, art, prayer, yoga, acts of service, dance, meditation, community…the list goes on.

Safety

Ensure a secure, supportive, and non-judgmental environment for all clients.

Sacredness

Recognize and honor the sacred aspects of the medicine, its origins and the healing journey.

Integrity

Maintain the highest ethical standards and transparency in all practices.

Inclusivity

Respect, honor and celebrate diverse personal, spiritual and cultural beliefs.

Empowerment

Encourage clients to reclaim their inner strength and autonomy.

Connection

Foster meaningful connections with self, others, and the universe.

My Guiding Values

Training & Education

Over the years I’ve gained experience working with a variety of children, families and adults through my time as a domestic violence counselor, school counselor, child protective services caseworker, crisis evaluator, and even within the juvenile justice system. As I became more immersed in holistic and alternative healing modalities, as well as through my own personal growth journey, the systems approach to treatment no longer aligned with me, and led me to pursue private practice, opening Intuitive Life Wellness in 2022.

When I'm not working, I love spending time with my family and my soul dog. You'll often find me paddleboarding, surrounded by nature, or simply enjoying the outdoors. I have a passion for reading, creating things, and collecting crystals, feathers, insects, and other cool nature stuff.

It's an honor to be a part of your journey

My Journey to Here
 

My own growth through personal struggles is what helps me relate so deeply to those I work with.

 

As a child I always felt different, like I never fit in. I carried this with me into adulthood, perpetuating my struggle with anxiety, depression, and isolation. 

I tried many things to feel better - numbing with medication and substances, therapy, throwing myself into work, changing jobs, moving, perfectionism...

Pretty much everything except what I really needed. It wasn't until a hard loss that I realized just how disconnected I truly was, especially with my sense of self and my spirituality. 

Embarking on a search for "answers" led me to a deep soul searching that eventually allowed me to regain my footing and find a sense of connection to something greater, that felt liberating from the religious ideology I had rebelled so hard against growing up. 

Through this spiritual awakening, I began to reclaim a sense of myself.

This led me to find connections with others in a similar space, and gain a deeper understanding of myself through alternative ways of healing. 

Becoming more and more immersed in the world of psychedelics, plant medicine, and natural wellness, I realized I could no longer just do this for myself, but I was doing a disservice by not offering this path of healing to others.

Finding a way forward built on intuition, co-creation with the universe, and a feeling of alignment and purpose, I strive to bring this to others, trusting that as we begin to heal individually, we also begin to heal collectively.
