I'm a Licensed Masters Level Psychologist. I’ve devoted my career to the field of sexual abuse prevention. I specialize in the evaluation and treatment of individuals with problematic sexual behaviors. I work with individuals convicted of sexual crimes, those at risk, and teens who have displayed inappropriate sexual behaviors. I work with males who have a history of sexual behavior problems and those whose relationships have been adversely affected by sexual behaviors or pornography use. I have presented at numerous international conferences on topics such as: pornography use among adults & adolescents, social media & sexting.

Life is full of growth, transitions, and obstacles. Sometimes this can be a difficult process that requires additional support and a safe place to process it all. Together we work towards helping you identify practical goals and triggers, learn healthy coping skills, embrace personal strengths, and develop healthy boundaries. I specialize in anxiety, ADHD, OCD, eating disorders, and sexual compulsions. I work using a trauma informed and compassion focused approach for all clients. A big part of therapy is working from where you are at. We want to create goals that are customized to what is best for you.

I currently have a 2-3 week wait to schedule an appointment. I am a creative and caring professional holding a master in counseling psychology degree and a certificate in child and adolescent counseling. With a holistic and trauma-informed approach, I treat the whole person with special emphasis on the effects of trauma. I enjoy working with children, adolescents and adults. With my previous work in the private sector and art community, I am uniquely qualified to assist individuals with creative challenges or career transitions and concerns.

I feel passionate about helping people have hope for the future. Too often people feel hopeless and helpless when thinking about making changes in their lives. I believe, with a helping hand or fresh perspective, we can all discover the strengths and steps needed to make the changes needed to be happier and healthier.

I am a masters-level counselor working on further education in clinical psychology at Kansas City University. Over the last year, I’ve worked with a varied group of people in inpatient care. I’ve focused my studies on therapy, assessment, and diagnosis with children and teenagers. I’m also a believer in compassion and care for everyone I work with and believe that empathy is the start to healing. I believe that everyone is capable of growth and change, and that together we can make that journey.

I know firsthand the incredible validation and healing change that can come from sitting with another person and being truly heard and seen, and this is what I strive to replicate in my work as a therapist. My role is to create an affirming, empowering, and safe space for you to work towards your goals. My goal is to partner with you as we explore thought patterns and behaviors that do not serve you, process and learn about emotions, and identify the strengths you already possess. Starting therapy can be daunting but I promise to meet you where you are with genuineness, patience, and empathy.

Are your fears holding you back from what you want to do or who you want to be? I believe you are stronger than you may think, and as your therapist it is my goal to help give you the necessary tools to live a happy and meaningful life! I currently focus on psychological, cognitive, and diagnostic evaluations. I provide assessment and diagnosis of neurodevelopmental disorders (e.g., Autism Spectrum Disorder, Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder, intellectual disabilities), mood/anxiety disorders, and other psychological concerns.

If you’re feeling stressed, anxious, or have reached a point where you can’t take feeling stuck any longer, I can help. The methods I offer enable you to gently integrate difficult life experiences, plus increase capacity, energy, and goodness in your life. I provide a safe space so you can heal and begin to feel better and do better in your life and relationships. It really is possible to feel better and for life to be easier. Let me help you go from surviving to thriving.

Hello, I'm Jessica, and congratulations on taking the first step towards healing. Therapy provides a new beginning for your journey toward increased hope, happiness, and emotional health.

I serve a wide array of clients. These include individuals, families, and children. My background, skills, and experience lend themselves particularly well to younger clients. My practice most often addresses issues of anxiety, depression, trauma, grief/loss, relationships, anger management, attachment, divorce, emotion regulation, parent-child relationship, sibling conflict, self-esteem, blended families, and adoption.

I envision therapy much as a road trip-as the client you are in the driver's seat. You determine our destination (goals), our speed, and when we need to stop and review where we've been, the progress we've made, and our strategy going forward. As your therapist, I help to read your maps (identifying core emotional issues, understanding significant life events, and identifying ways you may feel your life is out of balance) and help you to move forward. Together we will work to identify coping mechanisms which no longer are effective and to develop new, effective skills
