Choose Your Path
Individual Therapy
You don’t have to go it alone. You can feel more regulated, connected and grounded. Working with a licensed therapist can put you in the driver's seat of your life. It allows you to be intentional about your wellness instead of repeating unconscious patterns, which may be dysfunctional and causing you stress. You can gain fresh insights and guidance from an objective professional who can walk along side you through it all. Sessions with Jessica offer a nurturing, collaborative, safe, non judgemental space from which to heal and grow.
Therapy can help identify your needs, goals and unhealthy cycles and make empowering shifts to help show up as your best self in your life. You are a unique individual with your own story and so therapy cannot be one size fits all. Jessica customizes treatment by weaving in evidence based, trauma-informed, culturally-cognizant practices to meet you where you are.
