Jessica Julian, LMT was interested in things related to the body and healing since childhood. She was first exposed to yoga in 2000 and her yoga practice and meditation became an important part of her life. She received Reiki I certification in 2002, but didn't go further into bodywork for several years. After pursuing her education and becoming a licensed social worker,she entered the therapeutic world from the angle of a talk therapist. She enjoyed her work, but the stress of the field necessitated her leaving to heal her own vicarious trauma. She began receiving Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy (BCST) and through this difficult time became committed to understanding the deeper levels of stress, trauma and the self­regulating abilities of the nervous system. As her own situation was stabilizing, she had the opportunity to start training in BCST with Gary Peterson, RCST at his STAR Institute. Shortly after she became a licensed massage therapist and most recently completed two trainings in Northern­style Thai­Yoga massage. She has a lot of passion for all therapies that help the mind-­body be more coherent and healthy and aims to use her eclectic approach to benefit clients' personal needs.
