Hello, I'm Jessica, licensed somatic psychotherapist and certified psychedelic assisted therapist. My style is informed by de-colonial and trauma-informed practices that allow clients to shed euro-centric mindsets, safely return home to their body and move beyond pathology forward paradigms. Clients often find me after feeling burned out from community mental health systems or when they feel they've reached a plateau with their current therapist and are craving something a little deeper. As I hold space, I support clients to widen their capacity to listen and re-member what has always been present in their heart + body + soul.

I received my graduate education at Loyola University of New Orleans in 2010. Since then I have worked primarily in non-profits with clients transitioning into permanent housing after a period of being unhoused. Working in this setting gave me skills at crisis management, de-escalation and meeting people where they are. I believe everyone is capable of growth and of building the life they want, and that people grow best when met with warmth and compassion.

You look like you have it together: bills paid, people depending on you, goals checked off. But inside, you’re exhausted, anxious, resentful, and tired of overthinking every decision. You’ve tried doing the “right” things but life still feels heavier than it should.

Healing often begins quietly, with the simple hope that life can feel different. If the weight of past experiences has made the world feel overwhelming, painful, or even numb, I want you to know that you do not have to face it alone; I want you to know you are worthy of a space where you are met with compassion and non-judgement. As an LPCC, I am passionate about helping individuals to understand, connect with, and nurture their nervous systems, ultimately supporting them to heal from past wounds, break patterns that no longer serve them, and engage with the world with curiosity, resilience, and clarity.

Codependency Therapists
What therapy types help with codependency problems?
Both couples and family therapy and cognitive and behavioral therapy (CBT) can help with the relationship difficulties referred to as codependency. Such problems typically include inappropriate feelings of responsibility for a loved one’s destructive behavior, irrational patterns of thinking about such behavior, and family interaction patterns in which the needs of one troubled member override the needs of others in a household.
What happens in therapy for codependency?
Spouses and family members learn and practice how to interact and support each other in a healthy way without sacrificing their own needs or well-being. They learn the limits of their responsibility for their loved ones and correct faulty patterns of thinking and feeling that underlie codependent behavior. Individuals may be encouraged to nurture an array of social relationships and to cultivate their own talents and interests so that they develop a healthy sense of self outside the family.
How does therapy help a person or couple overcome codependency?
Therapy helps people establish healthy ways of being in a relationship. Spouses and family members learn how to nurture and support one another without sacrificing their own needs or allowing the needs of one person to dominate the dynamic. Individuals learn how to say no and set boundaries, and how to maintain their own identity and self-esteem. Therapy helps people understand that they are not responsible for the feelings and actions of others. It also helps individuals deal with the turbulence that can come from living with a person suffering from such conditions as substance abuse and mental illness.
What is the goal of therapy for codependency?
One goal of therapy for codependency is to alleviate feelings of responsibility for and correct irrational patterns of thinking about loved ones whose behavioral problems override the needs of others in a household. Therapy helps people establish healthy boundaries of behavior and speak up for their own needs in a relationship. In addition, people learn how to maintain a healthy relationship, one in which both parties give and receive equally and are able to retain their own identity.
