Hello I'm Jessica! I am a therapist with a passion for supporting maternal/paternal and prenatal mental mental health, I understand the unique challenges and joys that come with starting a family and raising children, as well as those with special needs such as ADHD and autism. My goal is to provide a safe and non-judgmental space for moms and parents to explore their thoughts and feelings, and to develop the tools and strategies necessary to navigate the ups and downs of parenthood. With a compassionate and strengths-based approach, we will work collaboratively to identify your goals and priorities, and develop a personalized plan for achieving them. Whether you are struggling with postpartum depression or anxiety, feeling overwhelmed by the demands of parenting, or simply looking for a supportive and understanding ally on your journey, I am here to help. With years of experience and training in various therapeutic modalities, I am committed to providing evidence-based interventions that are tailored to the unique needs and circumstances of each individual client. My ultimate goal is to help moms and parents feel empowered, resilient, and confident in their ability to care for themselves and their families.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In the first session, we will discuss briefly the intake forms you filled and then will dive in. We will spend time on what your current struggles are and what you want out of therapy. This will help us create a treatment plan that is best for you!

What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?

I utilize a range of evidence-based treatment modalities to help my clients achieve their goals. These may include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), among others. Each of these modalities is tailored to the unique needs and circumstances of each individual client, and may involve specific skills and techniques to help manage emotions, change negative thought patterns, or develop effective communication strategies. My approach is always collaborative, strengths-based, and focused on helping my clients feel empowered and resilient in their ability to care for themselves and their families.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

My biggest strengths include my compassion, empathy, and ability to actively listen to my clients. I approach each session with an open and non-judgmental mindset, creating a safe space where clients can share their thoughts and feelings without fear of criticism or stigma. I am skilled in tailoring evidence-based interventions to the unique needs and circumstances of each individual client, helping them develop the skills and tools they need to achieve their goals. Finally, I am committed to ongoing learning and professional development, staying up-to-date on the latest research and techniques to provide the highest quality care to my clients. Overall, my dedication to compassionate and personalized care, combined with my expertise and ongoing growth, enables me to empower my clients.
