Welcome! My name is Jessica, and it is a pleasure to introduce myself to you! Take a moment to acknowledge you've taken the first step towards bettering your mental health because, let's be honest - starting therapy can be empowering, confusing, or scary, all at the same time. I strive to create a safe and welcoming environment that allows clients to explore obstacles with concerns related to anxiety, depression, and/or self-care. I focus on helping clients develop assertive communication & boundaries with themselves and those around them that can help improve their quality of life. Counseling can foster personal development in whatever way you may be seeking and help build the life you so deeply deserve. If that's what you're looking for, I'm here when you're ready to share.
During our initial meeting, we'll spend some time getting to know each other and discuss what's bringing you into therapy. I will answer any questions you have about my approach or about therapy in general. My goal is to support you and do my very best to understand your needs, as well as help you clarify what it is that you want for yourself. Your participation and honesty is imperative so I can find the best tools to assist in improving your symptoms. I hope to culminate a safe space for you to freely express yourself without judgment.
