Jess graduated from the University of Derby in 2022 and began her career within a drug and alcohol charity in Coventry called Change Grow Live. During this time, Jess took on the challenge of integrating and building the foundations for occupational therapy to support people in their recovery from drugs and alcohol. 2025 has brought a career change for Jess as she embarks on her new role as a senior occupational therapist at Priory Hospital, where she will continue supporting service users in recovery from drugs and alcohol, but within an inpatient mental health rehabilitation setting.
