Living with and almost dying from the mental and emotional damage caused by the adverse circumstances of her childhood, in particular, the exploitative nature of 90's tabloid culture, Jessie is dedicated to making significant changes in the way we treat crime victims in the media. Available for on-set advocacy and pre/post production consultation, Jessie is a licensed therapist determined to help the industry create ethical true crime content and protect true crime victims from further exploitation in the media.
Jessie holds a Master's degree in Clinical Psychology and is currently working as a Registered Associate Marriage and Family Therapist Supervised by a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist.
