Hi there! I am so excited to sit with you and be present as you engage in the therapeutic process. Taking the walk to receive the care you deserve is often the hardest step, so I am excited to be here with you to cheer you through it! In this life, we face a whirlwind of different scenarios that may create ups and downs in our timeline. And even more often, our internal voice may guide us in a way that sets us back. Together, as we establish our therapeutic relationship, I will work with you to empower you and help you explore how to reach your full potential! As a growing counselor, I have been able to gain a breadth of different experiences throughout my education. Hailing from Western Michigan University, I have had experiences working with individuals with developmental disabilities (behavioral) and was fascinated by people’s different stories and how all of our domains in life affect us in so many different ways! As I embarked on the clinical route, I have had experience working in individual and group counseling settings. As a neurodivergent individual myself, I understand what it’s like to feel those struggles inside and outside of ourselves. I aim to create a space for you to have that voice, the tools, and structural pieces to bring to the outside world. In our work, I often explore from a CBT, DBT, ACT, person-centered, and/or humanistic perspective. I also integrate faith-based counseling, spirituality counseling, as well as mindfulness based practices to help navigate the intersection between physical and mental growth. I work with anyone in our space from ages 13-100+, offering both individual and, now, group services (please reach out for more info on group, if interested)! In this space, my biggest goal is to recognize, ensure, and promote your safety and comfort, and collaboratively create a plan tailored to your success and well-being with the right tools for you. I will act as the facilitator to your growth, where you will always be the expert. My clinical interests involve working with neurodivergent individuals (autism, ADHD), life transitions, self-identity, self-esteem, depression, anxiety, anger management, boundary-setting/communication, relationship issues, as well as trauma-focused work. I’m excited to meet with you and look forward to what’s to come!

I love working with college students to figure out what is going on beyond the words because sometimes it is not so clear. I work with clients on varying concerns. I know from personal experience how helpful and impactful therapy can be which is what ultimately led me to becoming a therapist. I utilize a person-centered approach with my clients. Therapy with me is tailor-made to fit you. I provide a non-judgmental, comfortable environment where clients feel safe to express their thoughts and emotions. There is nothing you can say that will surprise me, and I am here to work with you.

I believe that each person has the wisdom and knowledge within them to be able to heal and grow themselves but that intuition can be difficult to access due to our upbringings, beliefs, structural expectations, etc. I am honored to join with clients on their growth journey and provide perspective and safety along the way. I welcome clients from all walks of life and work primarily with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship issues, self exploration, and navigating the many transitions of life. I take an eclectic approach that utilizes Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy and Psychedelic Integration and also value the wisdom and significance of spirituality, mindfulness, somatics, ancestral connection, connection with nature and other non western conceptualizations of growth and healing. I foster a inclusive, nonjudgmental and affirming approach that does not shy away from difficult emotions. This is a collaborative relationship where we work together and rely on your inner wisdom to pursue growth at a pace that is healthy for you. If this resonates with you, I look forward to connecting with you and exploring the work we can do together.

We help anxious teens and adults find peace by healing and accepting themselves. We provide a non-judgmental space for people to reach their goals.

Have you been grinding through your life, one day bleeding into the next, until one day your brain and your body tell you that you can’t live like this anymore? Maybe you've finally had a chance to slow down, take a deep breath, and notice that unpredictability and chaos seem to be the norm? You're sick and tired of feeling this way and ready to make a change, but where do you even begin when it feels like the weight of the world is upon your shoulders? As someone who still remembers feeling the above emotions, I understand how difficult it can be to reach out for help. You may still be wondering if this therapy thing is right for you. I have experience working with those who are entering into counseling for the first time or who have tried many times before and think "this will never work for me." Interesting in learning more about my approach? Please don't hesitate to contact me with any questions. I look forward to walking with you as you start the journey of Finding Balance in your own life.

No matter where you are at in your journey, I will do my best to meet you there. My name is Jessica Earl and I own and operate my practice in Grand Rapids, MI. I currently offer therapy, coaching, psychological testing. For therapy, I like to use a variety of techniques such as Trauma Focused techniques, CBT, and Solution Focused Therapy. For coaching, you and I can create tailorized plans to help you reach your goals across a variety of areas. For evaluations, I am able to utilize gold-standard assessments to help assess for a variety of disorders. Depending on what you are looking for, I can help you find the best solution that is within my scope of practice. Testing and assessment can aid in finding answers and clarity, coaching can assist with behavioral changes and extra support while you reach your goals, and therapy can help you process trauma, stress, and mental health symptoms. I have been in practice since 2018 and in that time, I have worked with people who have experienced mental illness such as dissociative disorders, suicidal ideation, crisis, mood disorders, anxiety, relationship concerns, psychosis, behavioral concerns, situational stress, and sleep disturbances.
