Do you struggle to understand why you have a hard time connecting with others? Do you often have obsessive and intrusive thoughts of anxiety and depression? Maybe finding common ground with your child or adolescent? Hi I'm Jessie, as a dually licensed therapist, I work with individuals of all diverse neurological spectrums, teens, and couples navigating the turbulent waters of everyday life, as well as those contending with more profound challenges. Whatever you may be struggling with, my practice offers a haven of acceptance and support. Here, EVERY individual is welcomed with open arms.

In therapy, I provide a nurturing space filled with empathy and compassion, guiding you to navigate life's challenges, heal past wounds, and rediscover your inner strength. Together, we embark on a journey of growth, self-discovery, and empowerment.

With warmth and anticipation, I invite you to join me on a journey of healing and growth. In our tranquil space of empathy and understanding, we'll gently explore challenges, nurture wounds, and unearth your resilience. Let's create a therapeutic sanctuary tailored just for you. I truly look forward to the opportunity to work with you!
