Lived Experience Therapy

Lived Experience Therapy Jessica (Jess) is a culturally competent, rainbow-friendly therapist who uses a person-centred approach to counselling. Kia Ora, I’m Jess.

I grew up in Christchurch and moved to Rolleston with my husband and two sons, Zachariah and Malakai, in 2021. I work part-time at Workplace Support, an Employee Assistance Program (EAP) provider. I have experience working with children (ages 5 and up), adolescents, and adults, and have had the privilege of supporting individuals from diverse cultures, genders, sexualities, religions, and backgrounds. I am passionate about what I do and feel grateful that I can make a living by helping others. As a mother of a child with ADHD and possible ASD, I have first-hand experience in parenting a neurodiverse child, which has deepened my understanding of the unique challenges that families face. In my free time, I love baking specialty cakes, singing, and acting. I also enjoy meditation and yoga and try to incorporate them into my routine whenever I can. As a busy mum, I understand how challenging it can be to prioritize self-care or find moments for reflection and healing. Over the years, I have worked hard to develop tools and strategies that can help even the busiest person take better care of themselves.

Kia ora, I’m Jess and I just started my own practice based on lived experience- Lived Experience Therapy. At Lived Experience Therapy, I offer a safe, welcoming space where everyone is valued and respected — regardless of gender, age, sexual orientation, or cultural background. I am a registered social worker with the [Social Work Registration Board], and my practice is shaped by both my professional training and lived experience. This combination allows me to offer a holistic, person-centered approach that considers your emotional, mental, social, and cultural well-being.
