JESUS KNOWS HOW TO SPARK POTENTIAL IN YOUNG MINDS
Jesus Vera is a Bi-lingual First-Generation Mexican-American who was raised in Stockton, CA. Even though his social environment was known for drugs and gangs, Jesus modeled the example his parents set forth of hard work and sacrifice and excelled in school graduating with honors.
Jesus continued his education at a university in Riverside, CA where he became the first in his family to graduate from college during the middle of a pandemic and majored in both Business Management and Religious Studies.
JESUS RECOGNIZES THAT PAIN AND TRAUMA PREVENT PEOPLE FROM ACCEPTING THAT THEY ARE WORTHY OF LOVE AND BORN TO BE GREAT.
Jesus understands that a lot can stand between someone and their greatness and his goal is to be a voice of change in people’s lives. Jesus is also a firm believer in serving your community and for him, sharing his story and the pain points that he is encountered is just one way of doing that.
JESUS IS MOTIVATED TO INSPIRE THE NEXT GENERATION
Upon graduating in 2021, Jesus was hired by Adventist Health as a Mission and Spiritual Care Resident. This part of his journey led him to Portland, OR where he began his Clinical Psychotherapeutic training of 2,000+ hours working directly with patients and their families. Jesus is clinically trained in providing emotional and spiritual support to people of all walks of life, helping them process emotions and trauma in real time.
Currently, Jesus works for a local hospital organization in Southern California and is working on his Masters and has plans of pursuing his Doctorate. Jesus uses his social and cultural experiences paired with his training in psychotherapy to share his story and help people understand and process their emotions in order to heal from pain and trauma and awaken their inner greatness.
