Hi, I'm Jessica
Experienced Therapist with
10+ Years of supporting people through the challenges in their lives.
If you are looking for therapy that feels human and collaborative, I welcome you here. My desire is to assist you in understanding what is happening when emotions feel unmanageable, when reactions under stress feel confusing, and/or feelings are harder to control than you want them to be. We explore how emotional reactions affect your relationships and how your relationships, in turn, shape your emotional responses. We cannot avoid discomfort, but we can learn to find ways to be more comfortable in it.
My approach focuses on exploring root causes, building awareness, developing skills that support emotional regulation, moving through conflict gracefully, and discover connection with yourself and with others. Together, we practice steadier ways of feeling, clearer communication, and greater self trust. Therapy is paced with care and shaped by what feels most helpful to you.
We also use our therapeutic relationship as a place to practice direct communication and vulnerability. This includes exploring what safety feels like when you are showing up as your full self.
