Jessica collaborates with her clients to create a trusting and comfortable environment, where individuals can truly be themselves. Together with her clients, she processes through their stressors, fears, goals, and experiences to unearth the underlying truth - that they already possess all they need. In her practice, Jessica places the client at the center of their therapeutic experience. She specializes in working with adolescents, teens, young adults, couples, and families.
Her approach is humanistic, focusing on the whole person and emphasizing their strengths. Jessica's goal is to help each person develop a set of tools that they can independently access when needed. These tools are an amalgamation of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), and a variety of other therapeutic approaches.
Jessica understands that the hardest first step is admitting the need for support and seeking help. She encourages her clients to be proud of taking this step. While the next part of the journey may seem intimidating, Jessica assures it won't be. She is committed to working together with her clients to help them reach their goals.
