Meet Jessica

As a licensed clinical therapist, with a focus on couples' counseling, my goal is to enhance, strengthen, and provide insights. I help clients to live a meaningful life with healthier relationships. I have experience working with clients who struggle with relationship issues, family conflict, loss, and daily life stressors. My client-centered approach allows me to meet my clients where they are through various counseling techniques including Gottman method interventions, cognitive behavioral therapy, emotionally focused therapy, and sex therapy to help them achieve their goals.
