South Jordan Counseling Therapy

Jess Hooks, CSW

About Jess:

The world is a buffet of experiences and Jess is determined to sample everything it has to offer. During their free time, that means soaking in Utah’s vast mountain ranges and searching out beautiful new places. They also love personal growth, whether by learning new languages, practicing baking, or training in new therapy skills.

Jess earned a BS in Family Life and Human Development from Southern Utah University in 2019 before heading south to Arizona State University where they earned a Masters of Social Work in 2023. They are also trained in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), exposure and response prevention (ERP) therapy, and self-compassion practice.

They have a particular interest in working with the neurodivergent community, LGBTQIA+ community, and individuals on the obsessive compulsive spectrum. That said, Jess isn’t picky—they love getting to know all of their clients and learning just how cool and unique each person really is.

Parent Feedback

A family member recommended the South Jordan office to us and I decided to switch my two kids here. It has been such a good experience so far and my 2year old usually hates doctors offices, but she loved seeing how kid friendly it was with movies playing and painted rooms. The staff has also been very nice and welcoming so far!
