My treatment methods

Person-centered (Rogerian)

I integrate empathy, unconditional positive regard, and genuineness—into my treatment practices. By fostering a therapeutic environment that prioritizes these core components at each visit. During evaluations I use open-ended, empathic questions to establish rapport and gain a comprehensive understanding of the client's experience. By affirming patient-centered communication and using a biopsychosocial framework, I can enhance client engagement and satisfaction, ultimately supporting adherence to treatment plans and optimizing both the therapeutic alliance and clinical outcomes.

Supportive

I combine supportive psychotherapy with evidence‑based medication management to provide comprehensive, patient‑centered care. Sessions focus on strengthening insight, reducing distress, and building practical coping skills while also evaluating how biological, psychological, and environmental factors shape symptoms. Medications are used thoughtfully and collaboratively—one tool within a broader therapeutic plan designed to support meaningful, sustainable change.

Integrative

Integrative psychiatry, including functional psychiatry, emphasizes a holistic, patient-centered approach that combines conventional treatments (such as pharmacotherapy and psychotherapy) with complementary care, including dietary modification, lifestyle interventions, and the judicious use of supplements and nutraceuticals.

I loved seeing how open Jessica was to looking at the people she sees holistically. I saw reviews that she works with you and listens to the context you have around your situation. And she offers anything you need, making you and what you need the priority. I felt heard, respected, safe, and advocated for by Jessica, and love having her as part of my team!
