Hi! I'm Jessica, a licensed individual, couples, and family therapist based in Austin, Texas. For the past 8 years, I've been dedicated to supporting individuals and their families in crisis across Texas, particularly those in underserved communities who often face significant barriers to mental health care. I specialize in working with children, teens, and adults who are dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and trauma. I believe trauma is stored in the body and revealed in relationships and being strong is exhausting. It's time to stop walking on eggshells, push yourself out of your comfort zone, and heal!

First I'd like to say that I'm glad you're here. Prioritizing yourself and your mental health is a vulnerable process. It is my intention to create a space with choice, encouragement, and warmth. The time we have together is set aside to address whatever stressors are most present in your life. I have experience supporting adults struggling with depression, anxiety, panic disorder, PTSD, ADHD, and Bipolar Disorder. In addition to counseling, I have provided advocacy and trial prep to survivors of sexual assault and other violent crimes. I'm a staunch advocate for women's rights, LGBTQIA+, and other marginalized communities.

I love working with folx who are ready to do the work, but find that traditional talk therapy methods have not gotten them as deep as they'd like to go. I especially love helping individuals get clear on the root cause of their stuckness. I have found there is something very healing about exploring your past together, while ensuring you feel seen and heard. Together we can shift existing paradigms and old belief systems to form new narratives that feel authentic, holistic, and uniquely you by tending to your needs with lots of compassion and zero judgment.

We exist in relationship with others, our society and culture, and as the embodied totality of our experiences. The collaborative process of re-imagining one’s life through the unique relationship with a therapist can create avenues for healing, hope, and possibility. My therapeutic approach is informed by an enthusiasm for creative expression, mindfulness practices, and conversational mutuality. I invite compassionate curiosity to shift unhelpful patterns and create new meaning in your life and relationships. I believe that you are the expert of your life and I welcome the opportunity to explore with you the process of becoming.
