I use evidence-based therapies like EMDR, IFS, and EFT which provide tools to calm overwhelming emotions and work through distressing experiences without re-traumatization.
My multicultural background drives me to create a safe environment for people of diverse walks of life. Through a collaborative trusting relationship and humor I enjoy supporting individuals to overcome the struggles that come with anxiety, depression, neurodivergency, and trauma.

I am taking new clients for OCD, ADHD, hoarding, anxiety disorders, depression, high-functioning autism, attachment wounds, trauma, EMDR treatment for trauma, emotional neglect, chronic illness, aging, and adult children of alcoholics.
You know you want to make changes, but you can’t make sense of your own behavior. You're worried that you may be getting in your own way. Maybe you feel driven by perfectionism, or maybe you can't figure out why you are stuck on something that seems obvious. Do you need another mind to show you different ways to move forward? I can help. There's a great metaphor in the Japanese culture, where they practice a form of ceramics, kintsugi, that repairs cracks with gold to create a new work of art. If you find your mind or life in pieces, let’s make sense of the pieces, build your confidence, and create something new together.

Regardless of whether there has been a specific trauma or not, we have all been affected by the experiences of our lives. We have all had our own challenges and have felt hurt at some point, and sometimes those stick with us. Let’s help you work through the experiences your brain is still holding onto and help you become the person you want to be. I view my job as helping to guide you through the healing process and giving you a safe place to feel your emotions and find/connect with your authentic self. I am dedicated to helping clients make the progress they want in their lives.

My clinical trainings have focused on trauma treatments, including EMDR and IFS, and other regulation skills, such as CBT, DBT, ACT, and mindfulness.
I find that when people have someone who is non-judgmentally supportive, who holds hope for them, who sees them and hears them, and believes in their worth and abilities, they can have the space to finally breathe. And thrive. I am a direct and curious therapist, and I love to dismantle shame, ease the burden of anxiety, support neurodivergence, and help people step into their truest selves. I look to bring helpful dynamics into relationships of all forms and dynamics. I empower my clients to trust themselves enough to enjoy their lives again (or maybe for the first time) through skills, processing, and a therapeutic relationship.

I'm particularly passionate about trauma work, and am trained in EMDR and ART (Accelerated Resolution Therapy).
I believe vulnerability, connectedness, worthiness, self-love, and authenticity are critical to self-actualization and happiness. If you're feeling blocked in any of these areas by grief, trauma, anxiety, life or faith transitions, attachment and relationship problems, or just feeling stuck in general—I can provide a safe, supportive, empowering space to help you.

Using approaches like EMDR, existential, and Gestalt therapy, I create a safe, compassionate space to explore emotions and experiences.
My strengths as a clinician are in navigating the complexities of trauma, anxiety, depression, or life transitions with my client. When they feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unheard and seek a safe space to explore their emotions and experiences, my hope is they can find it in our sessions. When they desire support in healing past wounds, building resilience, and finding meaning in their struggles, I would like to be someone they can find that support. Through compassionate care, we collaborate in achieve greater clarity, connection, and personal growth. Together, we’ll create a path toward empowerment and thriving.

Hey, I'm Jess! I work with people healing from trauma, OCD, and anxiety. Trauma impacts us in complex ways, often shaping how we see ourselves, others, and the world around us.

EMDR Therapists
Who is EMDR for?
EMDR was initially developed as a treatment for individuals with Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), for whom memories of a deeply distressing experience can be inadvertently triggered by random everyday events. The procedure has since been applied in the treatment of many other conditions. For example, it is used by some therapists to treat anxiety disorders including panic and phobias, depression, dissociative disorders, eating disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorders, and some personality disorders. It is suitable for adolescents and adults.
Why do people need EMDR?
People need EMDR as a way to manage distressing memories that in some way hamper the ability to function in the present. The procedure is believed to target the way memories are stored in the brain. Evidence indicates that past disturbing experiences cause ongoing distress because they were not adequately processed, and when such memories are triggered in the present, they are accompanied by all the emotions, thoughts, and physical sensations as the initial experience.
What problems does EMDR treat?
First and foremost, EMDR is intended as a treatment for PTSD, to defuse distressing memories that intrude on and impair everyday functioning. It is also often used to help those who are subject to panic attacks, phobias, and other forms of anxiety. In addition, EMDR has been used to treat individuals with depression, eating disorders, and personality disorders.
What happens in EMDR therapy?
First the therapist takes an individual’s history, and then the therapist and client decide which distressing experience(s) will be the target(s) of the exercise, delivered via a side-to-side visual stimulus requiring lateral eye movements. The client will be asked to activate thoughts, feelings, and any body sensations related to the troubling experience. The eye movements are said to reduce the emotional charge of the memory, so that the experience can then be safely discussed with the therapist and digested, minimizing its ability to trigger anxiety.
