About me

Hi! My name is Jessica Matthews and I am a licensed mental health counselor of 15 years, practicing in Florida. For the last 10 years I have been providing mental health treatment to college students in both Florida and Illinois, but I have experience working with all ages and populations. I work with a variety of disorders and specialize in anxiety, depression, grief, adjustment issues, relationship problems, trauma, and family relational difficulties. I love working in mental health and treat my clients with respect and compassion, while providing a supportive, safe space for them to heal and work toward their goals. I utilize a strength-based approach and often incorporate cognitive behavioral therapy, solution-focused techniques, and mindfulness skills into my practice. If you are struggling and need support, I am here to help!
