What I Can Help With

Jessica supports folks in navigating Trauma, Anxiety, OCD, Perinatal Period and Relational difficulties. She often works with folks who are deeply aware of their patterns, but still find themselves feeling stuck. In her work with clients, Jessica gets curious about patterns and strategies and how they may have been supportive in the past. Rather than simply focusing on trying to get rid of them, Jessica works with clients toward a deeper understanding of what's happening in the present, how they would like their life to be different and what strategies are needed to move toward that. Jessica has a particular passion for supporting the perinatal population as they navigate the complexity of parenthood. She works with folks who want to show up for their children in ways that reflect their values, while staying connected to themselves, within a season of life that asks so much of them. This can include exploring identity, navigating the challenge of prioritizing yourself, understanding your own parenting triggers, or developing a deeper understanding of healthy relationships and how to cultivate them with your children.

My Approach

Jessica believes therapy is a place where you don't have to perform, have everything figured out or become the best version of yourself to be worthy of care. Jessica’s approach is warm, relational, and trauma-informed. She believes that meaningful change and deep healing happens when folks feel respected, understood, and accepted in the therapeutic relationship. Jessica approaches therapy with curiosity, prioritizes collaboration, and works with clients to create goals that are deeply meaningful to them. Therapy with Jessica is not about the endless pursuit of the "best" version of yourself. It is about developing a deeper understanding of your experiences, values and beliefs, and creating more space to respond in ways that feel aligned. Jessica also supports folks to move toward a different relationship with themselves. Where they can learn to hold their struggles with the same curiosity, care, and accountability they might offer someone else. Above all, Jessica hopes therapy is a place where you feel invited to understand yourself more deeply and where you feel accompanied as your work toward a life that feels meaningful, sustainable, and more fully yours.
