About me

I have been called a “Soul Whisperer” by clients due to being highly intuitive, however it is more about teaching others to listen to their own intuition which knows what is in their most highest and greatest good for a full satisfying life. I love to inspire others to change the story that they tell themselves about the events that have happened in their lives, as this story was based on stress responses, emotional trauma, perceived fear, and outdated messages from the conditioning and programming received in childhood, leading to psychological, emotional and physical pain. Life is like a mirror that reflects back all the hurt, disappointment, anger, betrayal, rejection, abandonment, unmet needs, unrealistic expectations, guilt, shame, and disillusionment that a person holds onto as a victim of their circumstances. On the other side of depression and anger, anxiety and panic attacks, trauma and PTSD, borderline personality and addiction is self-understanding, self-acceptance, self-compassion, self-forgiveness, self-respect, resiliency, serenity, peace, and joy. I remember asking one of the counselors that I worked with twenty years ago, “Has there ever been anyone that you could not help as I think I might be that person because I am beyond repair, broken, damaged and there is no hope for me.” This counselor laughed and said “Never. I have a partnership with the Creator and no one has ever walked away without experiencing incredible personal growth and you won’t be my first.” She was right!

I am 100% committed and dedicated to helping others discover meaning and purpose in their lives by supporting them on their own healing journey to stop the cycle of pain, addiction, violence, abuse, discrimination, abandonment, bullying, neglect, suicide, and trauma, all of which I have personally experienced myself. I am confident that I can help anyone who is truly looking to heal. It is not only about managing symptoms, but finding the source of suffering to promote clarity, healing, honesty, growth, compassion, forgiveness, accountability, self-care, and empowerment. It is about changing the self-talk, inner dialogue, and belief systems that no longer serve them and interferes with a healthy mind, body, and spirit connection. I am very passionate about helping others understand the negative thinking, victim mentality, shame cycle, codependency and emotional issues underlying mental health struggles and/or substance abuse patterns that keep them stuck, stagnant and enslaved to repeating behaviors that lead to self-sabotage and self-destruction.

I am a caring, engaging, empathetic, and compassionate professional mental health and substance abuse counselor, with a very strong theoretical foundation in evidenced-based modalities, such as Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Reality Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Adlerian Therapy, Gestalt Therapy, Attachment Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Psychodrama, Breath Therapy, Internal Family Systems and Inner Child Work. I also encourage clients to discover the blocks that hold them back from moving ahead in the areas of career, finances, relationships, personal growth, recreation, health, romance and spirituality. I motivate others to let go of enabling and co-dependency, set and maintain healthy boundaries, practice reflective listening and conscious communication, process grief and loss, and discover the meaning and purpose of living. I look forward to helping anyone that is ready to embark on healing the past, embracing the present, creating a new future, and living an authentic and truthful life.

Jerrilynn is an outstanding therapist and my trauma work with her has changed my life. I am enormously grateful for her expertise and compassion

Written on Oct 22, 2026 after therapy with Jerrilynn for 9 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, grief, and adhd

Jerrilynn gives me a safe space and the tools necessary to grow into the person I was created to - but never thought I’d be able to - be. She is more than I could’ve hoped to find in a therapist. Even that title doesn’t seem big enough to encompass all the work she’s helped me do.

She’s an amazing woman that has shown me nothing but patience, kindness and compassion. She also confronts me about my struggles and doesn’t allow me to victimize myself all while walking with me through each battle.

Written on Jul 24, 2025 after therapy with Jerrilynn for 4 years and 5 months on issues concerning relationship issues, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, and coaching

Jerrilynn has been a huge part of my healing and awakening. She was a great fit for my needs right at the start. I felt comfortable and free to express myself; whether it was something I was proud of, or a minor setback, or past trauma or something I was ashamed of. She was there to listen and give feedback and never made me feel like I was being judged.

Jerrilynn is the best. I have been comfortable sharing with my thoughts since day one. She's helped me a lot. I think we have been talking for 5 years or more.
