I&#8217;m Jess. I&#8217;m the owner of <em>Roots with Resonance. <\/em>I\u2019m a bisexual, cisgender, mid-sized, neurodivergent white woman with a deep passion for supporting LGBTQ+ communities through therapy, education, and connection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I earned my BA in Sociology from Bowling Green State University and my Master\u2019s in Social Work from The Ohio State University. I\u2019ve built a career around holding space, building bridges, and creating affirming environments for healing, learning, and growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>My Background<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Most of my social work journey has focused on serving LGBTQ+ communities in both healthcare and mental health settings. I began at the Department of Veterans Affairs as the LGBTQ Veteran Care Coordinator Lead across 3 states, where I developed an LGBTQ+ education program that expanded to 15 VA medical centers nationwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019ve presented at national and international conferences on LGBTQ+ health, and before launching this practice, I worked as a therapist and Education Coordinator at a private practice specializing in LGBTQ+ mental health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What I Do Now<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>In my private practice, I offer:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Affirming Therapy<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Coaching &amp; Consutlation<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Clinical Supervision<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Education &amp; Workshops<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>My practice is anti-racist and centers intersectional identities, systemic oppression, and trauma in all areas of my work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>My Approach<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>My personality and style &#8211; both in therapy and in life &#8211; are grounded in warmth, humor, curiosity, and the belief that growth happens through authentic relationships. I bring in creativity, music, movement, embodiment practices, and just the right amount of chaos <em>(thank you, neurodivergence) <\/em>to meet people exactly where they are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether I\u2019m building trust in a therapy session or facilitating a training, I lead with empathy and honesty. I use evidence-based tools like CBT, CPT, Motivational Interviewing, and mindfulness, but always adapt them to honor each person\u2019s unique experience. I\u2019m guided by what makes each person feel <em>seen, safe, and supported<\/em>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Outside the Office<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>When I\u2019m not working, you can find me: Singing along at live shows, cooking and sharing food, collecting books I fully intend to read, laughing and spending time with my people (and pets), crafting, and playing in my garden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>P.S.<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>If astrology and personality frameworks are your thing:<br>I\u2019m an Aries sun, Pisces moon, Enneagram 2w3, and living my best ENFP life<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"652\" height=\"869\" src=\"https:\/\/rootswithresonance.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Screenshot-150.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-310\" style=\"width:430px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rootswithresonance.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Screenshot-150.png 652w, https:\/\/rootswithresonance.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Screenshot-150-225x300.png 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 652px) 100vw, 652px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ohio CSWMFT Board License Number: I.1501274-SUPV<\/h5>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ROOTS WITH RESONANCE Where deep work begins &amp; meaningful change echoes HomeMeet JessServicesAsk Me Meet Jess Jess Homan, LISW-S(She\/Her) Hi!
