  • Associate Director of Clinical Operations / Director of Training / Counselor | Wellbeing Services and Resources | jfadden@plu.edu | 253-535-7206 | I am very excited to be back on the PLU campus!  I graduated from the PLU MFT program in 2012, and am looking forward to assisting the PLU community through our amazing counseling services. I have over 12 years of experience as a therapist, along with an extensive professional history within the social work and social justice field.  I have guided many people throughout the years, and feel it is my calling to be present for those who need support through this grand adventure called LIFE! My main goal is to help you cut through the minutiae of your own mind, implement tools that will help you take back the authority of your life and propel you forward on the path of your choosing.  I believe in creating “brave spaces” within the therapy room.  My style of therapy is a little different as I believe therapy does not have to be a long drawn out process, nor a deep dive, in order to make significant changes in your life.  Sometimes, you just need a place to breathe, focus and figure out your next steps.  I combine various therapy techniques, in order to challenge you, keep you focused and allow space for you to discover your authentic self.  Humor is also an important element of the process! If you are ready for deep and lasting change, then contact PLU Counseling Services and let’s get started! .

  • The Heller Family StoryThe tattooed numbers on her arm are a constant reminder of a time when the best and worst of human nature were in conflict. Harry Heller tells the story. Harry’s mother, Georgette Heller, was only 15 years old when she was separated from her family and sent into hiding with a non-Jewish family in Brussels. She did not go outside for two years – no sunshine, no friends, no freedom. There came a point when she could not take it anymore, and she started sneaking out at night
