Meet Jessica
A bit of background. Because I don’t believe a therapist is ever a blank slate.
As long as I can remember, it’s been natural for me to listen to others, to truly hear them, and to connect on an emotional, empathic level. What’s more, I’m also really good at results-oriented, action-based problem-solving that is fun and collaborative. Holding space and gently guiding forward are necessary ingredients for successful counseling.
I moved around a lot while I was growing up, which gave me an early education in resiliency, adaptability and the diversity of the human experience.
I find I’m most in flow when working one-on-one or in small groups with people who are committed to healing and growth, and who are looking for a knowledgeable guide and collaborator on the path to wellness. I come to the table with my own lived experience and my own bumps and bruises along the way.
It is important to me to admit my missteps, examine my biases, and be open to always learning as both a clinician and a human being.
