“The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change.” -Carl Rogers

I believe that human beings are far more resilient than they often realize. With person-centered therapy at the heart of my approach, I see every client as the expert of their own story. Simply showing up to counseling is a sign of courage and a step towards self-compassion and commitment to growth. Growth can feel uncomfortable and challenging, but it is through that discomfort that we find meaning, purpose, and the ability to live in alignment with our values.

I often draw from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which teaches us to relate to our thoughts and feelings with openness rather than resistance. Instead of pushing emotions away, we work together to understand them, clarify what matters most to you, and take steps that bring your actions closer to your values. In this process, discovering meaning becomes a powerful source of healing and hope.

The counselor’s role is to help expand a client’s perspective so they can see the full range of potential meaning in their lives. To do this ethically and effectively, I believe I must first widen my own viewpoint through multicultural counseling.

I hold close the idea that “knowledge makes men gentle, just as ignorance hardens us.” I am committed to continually learning inside and outside of sessions about cultures, identities, and systems of privilege and oppression.

My goal is to create a safe, inclusive space where your experiences are honored and where you feel seen, heard, challenged and respected.

Sometimes support doesn’t look like advice or answers — it looks like quiet presence. 🕊️

Holding space means showing up without trying to change what someone is feeling.

It’s about allowing emotions to exist and letting someone know they don’t have to carry things alone. 🧡

Here are 4 gentle ways to practice holding space:

✨ Listen without rushing in to solve
Sometimes the most supportive thing you can do is simply listen — no advice, no fixing, just presence.

✨ Let their feelings exist without judgment
You don’t have to agree or fully understand to validate someone’s experience.

✨ Stay grounded in the moment
Put distractions away, make eye contact, and offer your full attention — your presence matters.

✨ Respect their pace
Everyone processes differently. Holding space means allowing them to process their emotions at their own pace.

✨ It’s normal to feel nervous about starting something new — and therapy is no exception.

Throughout your time in therapy, you might find yourself wondering if what you’re feeling, thinking, or experiencing is “normal.” There’s no one right way to show up. Your relationship with therapy is uniquely yours. 🪴💭

You deserve to be surrounded by people who support you, hear you, and value your presence. And you deserve a therapist who meets you with openness, care, and compassion — exactly where you are.

💛 We offer affordable therapy services starting at $100. If you’re curious about beginning your healing journey, our compassionate team is here to help you take that first step.

🧡Meet Jessica🧡

Through my background working with domestic violence, sexual assault and complex trauma, I have had the privilege of accompanying individuals through various walks of life.

From this, I have come to know the importance of re-centering our stories into ones rooted in self-compassion, curiosity, authenticity, internal safety, and understanding. Vulnerability and change can feel overwhelming, especially when it comes without understanding and awareness of how you got to this point. It takes courage to be here.

“The privilege of a lifetime is to become who you truly are” -Carl Jung

I believe there is no right or wrong way to be human and together, we can begin to sift through, identify and accept the ways you have survived thus far.

I believe everyone has the capacity for their own healing and it is important to lean on those strengths to honor what is already within you.

Through this work I incorporate the use of Motivational Interviewing, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Mindfulness to support you while additionally integrating a person-centered, existential and psychodynamic lens.

My hope is to help individuals cultivate self-compassion, make meaning of their experiences and personhood, improve their relationships with themselves and others, and ultimately encourage life to be more manageable, if not fulfilling.

Socialization begins in early childhood. Long before kids can explain their feelings, they’re learning how to connect, communicate, and feel safe with others. 🧠✨

Through early social experiences, children learn to:
🤝 Take turns and cooperate
💬 Express emotions and needs
💛 Build trust and confidence

These skills lay the foundation for emotional regulation, resilience, and healthy relationships later in life.

Parenting through these early stages can bring up a lot of questions—and you don’t have to navigate them alone.

Therapy can support parents in understanding child development, strengthening connection, and feeling more confident in their role 🌱

Curious how you can feel more confident in parenthood through therapy?

If something feels scary right now, it doesn’t mean you’re incapable or unprepared. It may simply mean you’re stretching beyond what you’ve known so far. 💭

And that stretch can bring up doubt, discomfort, and self-questioning—especially during seasons of change. 🧡

Be gentle with yourself as you learn. You don’t have to feel confident to move forward, and you don’t have to have it all figured out to be doing it “right.” Taking things one step at a time still counts. You are allowed to grow at your own pace. 🌱

Feeling restless at work? 🤔 Wondering if you’re meant for something different—but unsure if it’s just anxiety or a real signal for change? You’re not alone.

Job change anxiety often shows up as overthinking, burnout, or that Sunday-night dread we all know too well—especially at the start of a new year when routines shift and expectations rise. 💼📈

In this post, we break down why these feelings happen and how changes in your current role can trigger stress.

Therapy can be a safe space to explore these feelings, calm your nervous system, and gain clarity about your next steps. 💛

What does emotional safety actually mean?

Emotional safety is the feeling that you can be fully yourself—your thoughts, feelings, needs, and boundaries—without fear of being dismissed, criticized, or punished. It’s knowing that even during conflict, the connection isn’t at risk.

In relationships, emotional safety often looks like:
• Being able to express emotions without walking on eggshells
• Feeling listened to, even when someone disagrees
• Repairing after conflict instead of avoiding it
• Trusting that your vulnerability will be met with care, not judgment

When emotional safety is missing, you might notice patterns like shutting down, overexplaining, people-pleasing, or feeling anxious about saying the “wrong” thing.

This is where therapy can be incredibly supportive. A therapist can help you:
✨ Identify relationship patterns that don’t feel safe or supportive
✨ Understand how past experiences shape your emotional responses
✨ Learn healthier ways to communicate needs and boundaries
✨ Practice building safety—both with others and within yourself

Emotional safety isn’t about perfect relationships—it’s about creating space for honesty, growth, and repair. And the more emotional safety you build in your life, the easier it becomes to feel grounded, connected, and secure in your relationships.

💬 You deserve relationships that feel safe to be real in. Join us for affordable counseling sessions at just **$100**

Our compassionate therapists are here to listen and support you on your journey to clarity and purpose.
