Hello! I’m Jessica, a licensed therapist! I have been in the behavioral health field since 2011 and have been licensed as a therapist since 2015. I have extensive experience in treating trauma, co-occurring disorders, as well as, various mental health and substance use disorders. I’m trained in EMDR which is a specialized approach to address trauma. I believe in a very person center approach, meaning you’re in the drivers seat and I’m the passenger helping guide you. I will meet you where your at and assist in being very goal oriented and structured in the approach. I value giving and receiving feedback to ensure the therapeutic relationship is strong! If you’re ready to identify and focus in on specific areas of your life you’d like to see change, I’m here to help you on your journey.

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

In our first session, we will work to make sure I am a match for you! We will do an intake assessment to gather background and historical information. I will provide any background or summary information you would like and provide a verbal summary of my practices, how I operate, treatment modalities and more!

What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?

I use motivational interviewing, a very collaborative approach to change. I also use Cognitive therapy, challenging thinking patterns and reframing them to more healthy ones. I lean into very intentional listening while being reflective and validating to your experience and emotions. EMDR and other trauma modalities are used to address trauma.

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

My greatest strength is working as a partnership with my client. I wont tell you what you should or shouldn’t do. I wont Ever make you feel less than or like your goals aren’t obtainable. My focus will be on making the experience the best it can be for you
