Multi-state licensed clinician working with kids to overcome bullying, increase self esteem and build resilience. Summer hours are outside at the Clubhouse in my community where we can access games, create challenges, and talk openly. Parents are able to stay onsite. I actively work to prevent suicide, strengthen parental bond and reduce anxiety. I am able to talk to teachers and provide full assessments. The LOVE Principle sums up my vocation in trauma work and therapy. L.o.v.e means 4 things: Listen Observe Validate Encourage That's my approach. I connect the dots as to why you feel and think the way you do.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

Grow is a wonderful platform but it does not sync with my other calendar. Email me for appointment or go to my page JessicaGaffney.com

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

Confident, witty, and genuine. My goal is to make you feel accepted and heard. I use a blend of my experience and clinical research to help ease your mental load and emotional responses. I do this everyday in my own life and with friends, clients and strangers who need a little help from a fellow human.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

Willing, trusting and enthusiastic are all great qualities, but I promise I work to earn these ideals. Reach me at DrsJGaffney at Gmail

My treatment methods

Christian Counseling

I have decades of counseling experience, and am well versed and educated in Biblical texts and how their misguided application leads to extremes in parenting, anxiety, and undiagnosed illness.

EMDR

I began using EMDR in 2019 to help resolved emotions; states of being overwhelmed and hypervigilant. This tool helps prepare individuals for stressful situations like flying, court scenarios, grief etc.

Internal Family Systems (IFS)

Shame is a powerful tactic that trains our brain to take responsibility for things that adults should have mended within us.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

Sometimes you need to be heard, and the silence of just being with someone who cares, can help settle your mind.

Narrative

Writing, much like our dreams, can hold the key to important events in our lives. Often we take for granted our strengths and have no idea how easy it is to switch gears in our mind.
