Plumeria Psychotherapy

Trauma therapy for multicultural, BIPOC, and LGBTQIA+ folks who want to embody self-trust, belonging, and connection.

About

Welcome! I’m so glad you’re here. I’m Jillian Flemmig, LICSW (she/they), therapist and business owner of Plumeria Psychotherapy PLLC.

My practice is anchored in mindfulness, somatic (body-oriented) practices, and anti-oppressive work to address unprocessed trauma, relational wounds, old narratives, and how memories are stored in the body.

I firmly believe that what you need to heal already exists inside of you, and perhaps has been undiscovered or inaccessible. I am excited to work together to tune into your inner wisdom and support you in feeling empowered to shape your own reality. 

As a multicultural and mixed race immigrant, I honor the cultural knowledge and ancestral wisdom that each of us carries, integrating valuable elements into the healing process as you see fit. I seek to decolonize therapy to foster a space where all your identities and experiences are welcomed. I am committed to my own lifelong work of unlearning and relearning to best support your transformation and liberation.

Outside of therapy, I love spending time with friends, exploring local parks, reading, swimming (when the sun’s out), painting, and learning how to knit.
