Hi I'm Jayden, I'm 24 and have a bachelors degree in Psychology and Human Development & Family Sciences. I went into college with the intentions of being a child psychiatrist, as I have always desired to walk alongside youth with encouragement. During my college career the Lord continued to reveal to me that you don't have to be a medical doctor to influence the next generation with love & kindness. He accomplished this through my time at places like Coyote Hill in Columbia and Calo Programs in Osage Beach. Since then, I have worked alongside a clinical massage therapist doing neurotherapy treatments with all ages. In this season of life, I am dedicating my time to serving families on more of a 1:1 basis.
