About
Jesse Vanous is deeply committed to helping clients navigate their way toward more fulfilling and meaningful lives, free from the unconscious burdens of the past. Understanding that life's challenges can feel overwhelming, Jesse believes that even when life seems suffocatingly dark, a forward path is always waiting to be illuminated.
Although the roles of therapist and client are often defined in formal terms, Jesse views their relationship as one between two people engaging in a real, human connection. This perspective shapes his approach, which emphasizes genuine interaction and mutual understanding. For Jesse, the therapeutic relationship is not just a backdrop—it's an essential tool for collaboratively addressing his client's challenges in a safe, supportive space. He looks forward to helping clients co-create meaningful and lasting life transformations through this partnership.

Why Healthcare
Mental health concerns are sometimes pathologized to the point of reductionism. Through my work, I hope to humanize these challenges, approaching them as occurring across a spectrum of everyday human experiences. This view and the therapy inspired by it have helped me integrate the most challenging aspects of my human experience into a coherent self-concept characterized by acceptance and self-compassion. I hope to instill that in others.
