Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, (1943), "The Theory of Human Motivation", reads: if a person’s basic needs (food, shelter, physical/mental safety) and social needs (love, belonging, self-worth, sense of purpose) are not fulfilled, that person will experience frustration and will “pivot” on a level of need that appears easiest to satisfy. Which level of need are you "stuck" on? Are you bound by anxious, fearful and mind-binding thoughts? Freedom is a goal that can be attained.

As a woman with ADHD who grew up in a toxic family marked by poverty, substance abuse, and emotional immaturity, I know what its like to feel like you have to hold it all together all the time.
My name's Jessica and I work with neurodivergent women, especially moms, who in many ways, don't want to end up like their own mothers. They don't want to live life with anger, resentment, loneliness, martyrdom, or low self worth. They don't want to move from connection to connection without ever really feeling like they belong.
Many of my clients come to therapy carrying things no one should ever have to carry alone. They need help understanding their feelings, overcoming the negative self talk loop, reconnecting with their body, and finding joy and compassion for themselves and others despite their own curated chaos.

Life can feel overwhelming at times. Whether you’re navigating big changes, coping with loss, managing anxiety, or simply trying to keep up with daily stress, it’s easy to feel stuck or alone.

I enjoy working with individuals experiencing anxiety, stress, relational or peer issues, life transitions, and couples or marriage concerns. I also have experience supporting teens and hold a special interest in working with parents of children with special needs.

Whether you are a teen struggling with adjusting to a new school or changing peer relationships, a college student facing a ticking clock demanding you choose a major, a young professional dealing with navigating the change from youth to adulting, or even an individual dealing with divorce or relationship concerns, I can help. All of these "normal" life changes can be accompanied by feelings of worry, stress, and anxiety that hinder our ability to progress as we need. Therapy is a wonderful means of working through the "noise" caused by anxiety, worry, and stress and dealing with the root of the issues you are facing.

Do you feel like you are struggling to cope with emotional & psychological stress from trauma? Trauma is often believed to include only those events where our lives are directly threatened, but this is not true. Trauma can be defined as any event that leads to significant impact on a person's mental health and wellbeing. Examples of trauma may include abuse, neglect, divorce, loss of a loved one, bullying, assault, car accident, victims of robbery, traumatic birth, witnessing violent acts, and so much more. These psychological scars may keep us from moving forward in life and impact our long term wellbeing.

My family’s experience with traumatic brain injury gave me a deep understanding of how complex every mental health journey can be.
I’m passionate about helping people who often feel misunderstood or overlooked — especially those navigating substance use and mental health challenges. Over the years, I’ve seen how stigma can prevent people from seeking help, and I strive to create a safe, judgment-free space where clients can feel comfortable being themselves.

I work with adults, adolescents, couples, and families providing care for clients who struggle with anxiety, depression, marriage/ family conflict (including domestic violence), addiction, post-partum issues, and pre-marital counseling.
I have extensive experience with cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and also utilize Christian faith based counseling with those clients who prefer using biblical principles when implementing goals and strategies to overcome life’s obstacles and make positive changes in behavior.

My background includes specialized training in child-centered play therapy, Sandtray, and trauma-informed approaches, along with experience supporting children, teens, and families across diverse settings.
Do you feel stuck in anxiety, self-doubt, or emotional patterns that seem bigger than the present moment? Or is your child struggling with intense reactions, shutdowns, or behaviors that don’t fully make sense? Often, early experiences and relational wounds shape how we cope long after the moment has passed. When big feelings start affecting our daily life and relationships, it can feel exhausting and isolating. Whether I’m working with a child, a teen, or a young adult, my goal is the same: to create a safe, supportive space where big feelings are welcomed. Together we work toward deeper healing, not just temporary relief.

FAQ - About Family Therapy
What do family therapists do?
A family therapist facilitates the process of understanding and improving how a family functions. The therapist will help family members develop empathy for one another. They’ll seek to understand existing patterns, misunderstandings, and conflicts that arise, in order to help the family arrive at a realistic, unified understanding and develop the coping skills they need to build stronger relationships.
How long does therapy for families take to work?
Therapy manifests differently in every family; a common time frame is 12 weekly sessions, but some families may see improvement after just a few weeks. Families should discuss their goals with the therapist at the beginning of the process and periodically revisit those goals to assess their progress together.
How can you encourage a family member to attend family therapy?
You can encourage family members to attend therapy by expressing with both love and concern the challenges you see and explaining how a therapist could help the family navigate those challenges together. An outside perspective can help everyone feel heard, get on the same page, and develop new skills. If family members are still hesitant, it may be helpful to emphasize that family therapy is short-term—it won’t last forever.
Is therapy for families effective?
Family therapy can significantly improve family dynamics and relationships. Research suggests that family therapy can help individuals understand their role in the family, communicate and solve problems together, reduce conflict and draw boundaries when necessary, and develop coping skills for stressors, major life changes, and mental or physical illnesses within the family.
