Hello!
I am so grateful you are here. My name is Jenny McGrath (she/her).
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Approved Supervisor in the state of Washington (more on that over at my other site) ++ I am also a Somatic Experiencing® Practitioner and Certified Yoga Teacher.
I believe in the power of story and the wisdom of the body.
After growing up in fundamentalist Christianity at the height of purity Culture, I moved to Northern Uganda to become a missionary at the age of 19. Detangling from that world, I’ve dedicated my labor to deconstructing and researching the impacts of Christian supremacy and religious dogma on bodies and communities. I am a member of the Purity Culture Research Collective. I believe it is necessary to focus on social justice while we heal our bodies. I see the pursuit of healing as an essential partnership between our individual body and collective bodies.
I facilitate each of my offerings from an LGBTQIA+ affirming and I am consistently working to engage and heal my internalized bias’ and learned racism. I honor all bodies, sizes, abilities, religious or non-religious affiliation, and other intersectional identities.
This community of brave, defiant people has continued to challenge and inspire me in my own journey of liberation. I look forward to learning more about your embodied story as we grow together! Welcome to Indwell!

Ways you can work with me!
Indwell Sessions
Indwell Sessions are individual, 1-1 sessions with me. They weave together Somatic Experiencing, movement education, somatic awareness, social justice, and psycho-somatic education. Indwell sessions are not mental health counseling, and they do not put us in a therapeutic relationship.
((If you live in Washington state and are interested in mental health counseling head over to Indwell Counseling!))
Indwell Classes
Indwell Classes are hosted on zoom (and sometimes in person!) They are a great place to connect with other who are engaging the studio, courses, and other work with me. I offer them “pop-up” style currently, so stay tuned for when and where they are!!
Indwell Online Studio
The Indwell Online Studio is a a library of HUNDREDS of hours of movement classes including yoga, strength training, stretching, and teaching.
You can stream the online studio anywhere you have internet and start moving your good body today!
Workshops and Retreats
Occasionally I get the honor of co-hosting workshops or retreats with friends and colleagues I deeply trust and admire.
Like my upcoming one in February, 2026 with Kim Hock to PANAMA!!!
Keep your eye on the top bar of this site, and even better sign up for my newsletter to stay up to date with upcoming offerings!
Courses
My courses are more specific for folks wanting to deep dive into story work and the impacts of purity culture.
Embodied Sexuality is the sex education 101 that those of us who grew up in purity culture never received. The course has hundreds of hours of resources, teaching, and somatic practices to help grow your sense of pleasure, agency, and develop your own sexual ethic!
Embodied Story engages how our intergenerational narratives of who we are and where we come from impact the way we see ourselves and the world. It broadens your capacity to center your agency in your story to live the one you want!
