Jessica
LMSW
"With each breath comes an invitation to begin again and move closer to the future you hope to create.”
Therapy is deeply personal, and I believe it should be as unique as you are. I enjoy breaking down large, overwhelming goals into smaller, manageable steps but recognize that no one-size-fits-all solution exists. Your journey is uniquely yours, and I'm here to walk alongside you, supporting you at your own pace. Whether you know what's holding you back or are still figuring it out, I'm here to listen, encourage, and help you gain clarity.
I offer a broad range of experience supporting individuals through life's most challenging moments. Over the years, I've helped people navigate reentry as they transition from incarceration, provided compassionate end-of-life support to individuals and families, and guided parents through the complexities of raising children. I've also worked closely with neurodiverse individuals, focusing on enhancing self-awareness, emotional regulation, and tailored coping strategies.
As a lifelong artist, I bring a creative perspective to therapy and believe deeply in the power of creativity to foster healing and personal growth.
