Hi, I'm Jesse! At the heart of my work as a psychotherapist is a commitment to accompany clients as they navigate towards more fulfilling and meaningful lives, free from the unconscious anchors of the past. I recognize that when the storm envelops everything, it is sometimes impossible to avoid having your light extinguished by it. There is a path forward. Together, we can illuminate it.
I believe the therapeutic relationship is sacred, messy, and alive, and I treat it as such. We’re not just doing symptom management—we’re following a map inked in data and myth—modern neuroscience and 130 years of collective wisdom. This map helps us see through the fog and find what's true and, most importantly, what matters.
Life can become so exhausting that finding time for essential acts of self-discovery and authentic connection feels impossible. If you're ready to take the first step toward a self-actualized you, I invite you to reach out. I look forward to working alongside you in our co-creation of meaningful and enduring change.

I offer brief and long-term psychotherapy that goes beyond mere symptom relief and, additionally, seeks to identify and address the origins of your concerns. I believe that all plants have roots, and attending to the source of your anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or dysregulation requires more than surface pruning.
