MEET JESS FRY

LPC, ADHD-CCSP.

I struggled with body image distress and disordered eating for almost two decades. On top of that, until my early 20s, I was living with undiagnosed - and untreated - ADHD and anxiety which made my relationships with food and my body that much more challenging. My journey through eating disorder recovery paired with my educational background fuels my passion to guide you towards a positive relationship with food and body image.

I want you to be able to celebrate your worth at every size, and embrace authenticity without apology. The services I provide are the same ones I wished for during my own recovery. And the community I’ve created is the safe space I didn’t know I needed - one where no one walks alone.

AT EmBODY CONFIDENCE, I AM DEDICATED TO EMPOWERING NEURODIVERGENT WOMEN ON THEIR JOURNEY TO MENTAL WELL-BEING AND SELF-LOVE

Specializing in disordered eating, body image distress, and anxiety, I guide clients to embrace their true selves in a world that challenges their worth. By prioritizing mental health and individual needs, our mission is to foster profound self-acceptance and confidence. Through personalized support and a commitment to positive transformation, we inspire clients to lead fulfilling lives, liberated from the constraints of disordered eating and body image distress. Our empowerment extends to navigating the challenges of anxiety and ADHD with resilience and grace, paving the way to an authentic and confident life.

My Approach to Counseling and Coaching

I approach therapy as a collaborative journey, where my role is to engage through questioning, provide psycho-education, offer perspective, illuminate strengths, normalize challenges, and encourage steps toward the change and growth you seek.

My therapeutic style is a purposeful blend of effective interventions drawn from various approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy, Solution-Focused, Somatic, Client-Centered and Gestalt Therapy.
 Additionally, I integrate Intuitive Eating, a self-care eating framework that combines instinct, emotion, and rational thought. This weight-inclusive, evidence-based model is supported by a validated assessment scale and nearly 200 published studies.

My passion lies in empowering individuals to live authentically and unapologetically. Central to this journey is letting go of dieting behaviors, fostering healing in your relationship with food and body,
and embracing self-acceptance.
