In my work with adults I specialize in family of origin issues, attachment trauma, PTSD, phase of life problems, relationships struggles, and personality disorders.
Therapy is a powerful way of changing unhelpful patterns in our life and engaging in the process can help ease the dilemma of feeling stuck. In my work with clients I practice from a humanistic approach to understanding the person seeking treatment. My aim is to create connection through understanding and safety within the parameters of a secure therapeutic relationship to help stabilize crisis and facilitate emotional growth. I work with teens and adults, at different stages of development to help gain skills and insight into how internal conflicts may be playing out in life and relationships.

Life's challenges can sometimes force us to shut down in order to keep going. In therapy, we look at your essential patterns of living and relating--main themes which may have begun in childhood or later. We will look at the ways you cope with and protect yourself in difficult circumstances and how effective they are. Research continues to show that the single most important element of successful therapy is the client's relationship to the therapist as a person, and with the methods of therapy. Another crucial element is the strength and courage you bring to the work.

Are you caught in a cycle of anxious thoughts, avoidance, and the quiet dread that things will never change? Whether you're managing OCD, social anxiety, or the kind of persistent worry that follows you everywhere, you deserve more than white-knuckling through another day. You don't need to have it all figured out to start — you just need to be willing. I'll meet you exactly where you are, with warmth, a clear game plan, and the occasional laugh along the way.

Welcome! My name is Mallory. If you're reading this and looking for a place to begin your healing journey, you've already started one of the most challenging parts – reaching out for support. Have you wanted to talk to someone but felt you had nowhere to turn? Have you been feeling alone or like you're not good enough? Maybe you're feeling unheard, angry, or like life's struggles have become unmanageable. You need a safe space but feel like there's no such thing. That's where therapy comes in.

Starting my career in 1993, I have worked with individuals from all walks of life. I believe that at the core of every human being is the desire for growth and self-discovery. We are each born unique, and yet we spend our lives being told by others how to live and behave like everyone else. Over time, the process of forgetting the authentic self leads one to experience emotional distress that is uniquely personal. Whether dealing with life changes, relationship issues, or disabling mental illness, working with a competent psychotherapist can facilitate the process of overcoming obstacles and developing a more fulfilling life.

If you’ve spent a long time carrying things that feel "unthinkable," I want you to take a breath and know: You aren't a burden, and you don't have to have the perfect words to be here. Many of us who have experienced deep-rooted or childhood trauma become experts at hiding. We worry our stories are "too much," so we stop reaching out to avoid "heavying up" someone else's life. I offer a different kind of space—a soft place to land when the world feels overwhelming and a touchpoint of safety for your nervous system.
If this hit a little bit differently for you - I'm your gal!

Are you overthinking instead of enjoying your life? Do you often feel misunderstood or disconnected from friends or loved ones? Does advice from others seem unhelpful or useless? Sometimes we notice we have become too hard on ourselves or others. We may notice an increasing sense of lonliness and begin to lose of sight of what is truly important. Do you ever wish you could just sit down with someone and sort it all out?

As an adult there comes a time when emotions can defy logic and we exceed our ability to reason through and remedy how we are feeling on our own. Similarly, there are times when even the most supportive parent can reach an impasse and need additional support for their child; especially when children are engaging in difficult, overwhelming and even triggering behaviors.

Hi I'm Jessica Brady, LCSW. I'm glad you're here!

Together, we’ll work on building greater emotional openness, flexibility, and the tools you need to manage life’s challenges with more ease and confidence.

As your therapist, my goal is to create a safe space for you to express yourself openly and authentically, as I believe healing happens through connection. In addition to a range of therapeutic modalities, I promise to bring warmth, humor, and the occasional anecdote or metaphor, often nature related. For some, therapy is an opportunity to problem-solve a current challenge, and for others it's a chance to gain a better understanding of themselves and the experiences that brought them to where they are. Whatever your reason, I would love to partner with you in meeting your goals.
