Create Session with JWT

I'm currently working on a shop like project that uses React as frontend and Wordpress with Woocommerce as a backend.

To authenticate with the API I use the JWT Authentication for WP REST API, which works great.

The problem I'm facing is that I want to redirect to a checkout page that is not part of the PWA but a traditional Wordpress page. Is there any way that I can create a WP session using the JWT token I created for the API?

The alternative would be to store the login data and pass it on to the checkout page. But I'd rather avoid this because of security concerns.
