Hey y’all, my name is Kendra, and I am happy you’re here! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, born and raised in the Florida Panhandle, where I still live with my husband and two children (and several fur babies). I graduated with my BS in Psychology from Florida State University in 2003 and with my MSW, also from Florida State University, in 2014.

Hello, I am Jessica Alea, LMHC. If you have gotten this far, then you understand how much trauma and/or anxiety can impact a person’s ability to find joy. Our minds can be our own worst bully. Experiencing anxiety and trauma, can leave one feeling tired and frustrated. You may feel irritable or too exhausted to deal with social situations. You may spend a lot of time thinking through how to handle social situations because it feels unsafe. Each situation presents another battle with how much you can handle. It just feels like your mind is always "on." If sounds familiar, I can help you find relief.

My clients often come to therapy grappling with uncertainty, high stress, or loneliness in their lives. Sometimes they are feeling intense emotions, or behaving in ways that are confusing and frustrating for them. They may be feeling disconnected from other people, or feeling overly worried about how others perceive them. They are seeking more connection, peace and balance in their day-to-day.

My desire as a therapist is to help others discover the joy in living. I believe that those burdened with traumatic or distressing life events can find hope, healing, and freedom. Many high-performing, intelligent people secretly battle anxiety, depression, and trauma/stress, and they become overwhelmed trying to handle it alone. The mask of perfection smiles that "everything is ok," while the true person feels lost, drained, and confused. If you or a loved one are having difficulty navigating life due to upsetting, stressful life experiences, therapy can provide opportunities to breathe deeply again and look forward to a new day.
