Frequently asked questions.
Practical answers before you take the next step.
Who does Human Fortitude work with?
We work with individuals navigating workplace strain, difficult transitions, and personal growth, alongside organizations seeking support for teams, leadership, and policy.
Which individual solution should I choose?
Workplace Recovery focuses on the aftermath of a difficult work experience. Standing Ground supports people facing bullying, harassment, or intimidation. The Pivot addresses change and reinvention. Personal Fortitude focuses on building skills before a crisis. An initial conversation can help clarify which direction fits.
What happens in the first conversation?
You can describe your situation, what you hope will change, and the kind of support you are seeking. We discuss fit and possible next steps before an engagement is agreed.
Is coaching the same as therapy?
Coaching and psychotherapy are different services. The service offered, its scope, and any applicable clinical arrangements should be clarified before work begins. Jess’s clinical background informs her perspective, but a coaching inquiry does not establish a therapy relationship.
Does Human Fortitude provide legal representation?
A background in law informs the firm’s perspective. Contacting Human Fortitude does not establish an attorney-client relationship. Any need for legal advice or representation should be discussed with an appropriately licensed attorney.
Can organizations tailor an engagement?
Yes. The starting point is the organization’s circumstances: the people affected, the responsibilities of leadership, and the systems involved. Scope, format, timing, and deliverables are agreed before work begins.
How does Critical Incident Response work?
Contact us to discuss the incident, your immediate needs, and availability. The response and scope must be agreed before support begins. An inquiry does not guarantee immediate availability, and this service is not an emergency response line.
What does Policy and AI Ethics Advisory cover?
The offering brings a trauma-informed perspective to harassment, leave, DEI, and AI-use policies, and to ethical questions facing mental health and HR technology teams. The specific review questions and deliverables are defined for each engagement.
How are fees and scheduling handled?
Fees, session frequency, delivery format, and scheduling are discussed directly and confirmed before an engagement. No standard pricing or availability is published here.
What should I include in an inquiry?
Share a brief description of what you need and how to reach you. Avoid sending detailed health information, personnel records, or sensitive case materials through an initial email. Appropriate information-sharing arrangements can be discussed before documents are exchanged.
