About Jess
Jess Auch is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) in Michigan with nine years of clinical experience. She helps people who are facing relationship strain, grieving a loss, or navigating parenting challenges. She also supports work on self-esteem, motivation, and coping with major life changes.
Jess uses straightforward conversation to identify what feels stuck and what matters most now. She listens for practical patterns in relationships and daily routines. Then she helps people try small, concrete changes they can practice between sessions.
Her approach is direct and respectful. Sessions focus on improving communication, rebuilding confidence, and finding ways to manage grief that fit each person’s life. She pays attention to how everyday choices affect mood and relationships.
When parenting is the concern, she helps parents sort priorities, set boundaries, and handle conflict with more clarity. For people questioning purpose or next steps after a big change, she helps clarify values and short-term goals to move forward without pressure to have all the answers.
Jess works in plain language and encourages steady progress. She asks practical questions, suggests exercises to try at home, and reviews what worked at the next meeting. This profile describes her background and how she typically works so prospective clients know what to expect.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Jess uses evidence-based techniques that focus on practical change. One common approach is skills-based work that teaches clear communication methods and conflict strategies useful for relationship strain and parenting challenges. These techniques break interactions into manageable steps and role-play options to try between meetings.Another approach emphasizes behavioral experiments and small habit changes to address low motivation and self-esteem. These tasks are concrete and measurable, helping people test what makes a difference in real life. Both approaches aim to translate insights into everyday routines rather than only talking about problems.
Finding the right fit is part of the process. The therapist collaborates with each client to decide which approaches match their goals, preferences, and current needs. Together they review what helps and adjust the plan as work progresses.
