I love working with young adults navigating anxiety, daily stress, and interpersonal challenges within their relationships. I also specialize in supporting couples who want to deepen connection, rebuild trust, and create a more harmonious, fulfilling partnership. In addition, I am passionate about helping clients explore identity conflicts, intergenerational trauma, and self-esteem concerns—especially those with multicultural or immigrant backgrounds who may feel caught between cultural expectations and personal authenticity.

My approach to psychotherapy is based on my strong belief that a therapist needs to be genuine, warm, caring and provide treatments that are backed by research and efficacy. As such, my practice is unique because I am that engaged and active therapist who provides cutting edge treatments such as mindfulness and cognitive behavior therapy for various psychological issues and disorders. To me, the relationship between the client and therapist is extremely important, and I utilize that dynamic to develop insight into to what my client is experiencing and how my client is relating to others.

Why therapy? Why now? Many of the talents and qualities that make someone successful in one area of life can pose difficulties in others. Unique life circumstances are common in my practice, and I am familiar with the challenges entailed by unconventional lifestyles. Especially creative, musical, expressive, and artistic ones. Perhaps you are already aware of your need for a safe, non-judgmental environment in which to explore, repair, and heal from life’s challenges. However, you may not be certain, and that's not a problem.

Exhausted by tantrums? Unsure of how to support your anxious child? I believe that parents and caregivers are doing their very best to meet their child’s needs in a world that asks so much of them, but I know how overwhelming it can feel when your child is struggling. With this understanding, I approach my work with warmth and respect for each family’s values, while also honoring the individual personalities of the children I work with. In my work with children, I take a child-centered play therapy (CCPT) approach which allows the child to explore their inner world and make sense of their experiences in a safe and supportive space.

Hi, I am Jailene, and I support individuals through symptoms of anxiety, depression, life transitions, academic struggles, or recovering from difficult experiences, such as abuse. There are moments where we feel stuck in life personally or professionally. We all deserve to feel heard and supported when feeling low motivation, easily frustrated, our mind racing, uncontrollable worry, negative self-talk, or dissociation.

The majority of my clients are people over 40, many of them gay men, who want to make sense of their life and its transitions: where they come from, where they are and where they are going. They might have specific issues: work, relationships, health challenges (sometimes HIV), aging parents, substance abuse and other addictive behaviors. Sometimes there is no specific issue, just a desire to sort out things. Their history might include trauma in childhood or later in life, and multiple losses, including loss to suicide. Depression and anxiety often show up as part of the work.

It seems like everyone else has it all together when you struggle to get even one thing right. Past hurts and disappointments remind you every day that you are lacking. You feel even more helpless when you try to get out of this mentality of lack and nothing works. Reminders on social media, along with family and friends, keep telling you that you don’t measure up. You’re exhausted and overwhelmed from even trying. “Why does it have to be so hard?” you wonder. You see the statement "You are enough" written everywhere, from notebooks to pictures on the wall. Even though you want to believe it, deep inside, you can't.

Many betrayed partners experience symptoms similar to trauma; constant anxiety, intrusive thoughts, hypervigilance, difficulty concentrating and the painful feeling that the person you trusted most is suddenly a stranger.
