Jessica Gonzales Purcell- Founder of A Balancing Point

For over 20 years, I have been dedicated to creating spaces where individuals feel seen, heard, and empowered. My background includes an M.S. in Mental Health Counseling, along with specialized certifications in trauma and crisis response, mediation and facilitation, intersectional identities, family systems work, and culturally informed counseling.

My journey in higher education was shaped by my own experiences with the transformational power of learning—as well as the gaps in traditional support systems. With a strengths-based, individualized approach, I have designed workshops, curricula, and programs focused on:

Personal Growth & Leadership Development
Justice, Equity, Diversity & Inclusion (JEDI)
Mental Health Advocacy
Organizational Strategy, Communication & Collaboration

In my individual sessions we can work together to create a path forward. Some of areas we can explore are:

Personal Goals and Accountability
Strategies for Transitions and Life Changes including Career and Educational
Wellness Plans and Support
Relationships and Family Dynamics

While I work extensively with individuals, I also partner with businesses, nonprofits, and institutions to build inclusive, resilient, and high-performing teams. My approach begins with assessing processes and structures within an organization to identify opportunities for growth. From there, I work collaboratively with teams to develop tailored training, strategy, and implementation plans that drive long-term success.

Before launching A Balancing Point, I built a diverse career as a personal trainer and wellness coach, and I spent a decade as a business owner in event design and consulting. These experiences sharpened my skills in strategic planning, client engagement, and high-pressure leadership—insights that now fuel my work in coaching and consulting.

My Approach

Humanity-centered, collaborative, results-driven, and tailored to your needs—whether you’re looking for balance in your personal life, leading a team, growing a business, or creating a more inclusive workplace.

Let’s work together to build balance, strategy, and success.
