Jessie Whitfield
Hi, I'm Jessie, a compassionate therapist dedicated to women's mental health. Are you a counselor or therapist dealing with personal issues on top of a job helping others? Have you ever felt lost in your marriage or your motherhood?
As an eclectic and holistic therapist, I pull from several different methods including CBT, EMDR, client-centered, psychoanalysis, and mindfulness.
With a profound understanding of the intricate ties between emotional well-being and relationships, I can help guide you toward healing. Drawing from my expertise in trauma therapy, I provide a safe space for addressing past wounds. My empathetic approach extends to addressing common struggles like anxiety and depression. With a nurturing focus on gaining a deeper understanding of yourself and creating greater ability to find your grounding, I empower you to embrace your roles while caring for your mental health.
First session
During our first session together I'll ask you to talk a bit more about why you're seeking therapy now, your past experiences(s) with therapy if you've had any, and set some expectations about the work we'll do together. You'll hear a little bit more about how I work, the background that I have, and hopefully leave feeling supported and encouraged in the decision you've made to start this journey.
Strengths
One of my biggest strengths is my ability to connect with and support you as you walk through hardships. With a profound background in trauma work, I hold a keen understanding of the impact of past experiences on present emotions. It's from this space that I can meet you where you are, challenge you in your thinking, and help you grow in your confidence and self-awareness. Furthermore, my lived experiences as a mother & first responder wife will provide you with invaluable guidance as you work to balance your roles and responsibilities while maintaining your own mental well-being. From there you'll find that your relationships grow as will your contentment with your life. In addition, upon your request, I will gladly explore the role of faith in your life as well.

Treatment methods
Person-centered (Rogerian)
I take a person-centered approach to therapy, which means I emphasize empathy, trust, and collaboration. My goal is to create a safe and supportive space where you feel truly heard—so you can explore your experiences, deepen your self-awareness, and move toward growth, even when that means gently stepping outside your comfort zone.
