About Jessica

Some stories need room before they need answers.

Couples and families often reach out when something has interrupted the connection they once counted on. It may be an argument that keeps returning, a difficult transition, a child who is struggling, or an experience that still feels hard to name. Jessica offers a steady place to begin.

She works with couples, children, teens, and families through painful moments and developmental challenges. Her focus is on creating enough safety for people to be curious about what is happening beneath the surface, and to find a way of relating that feels more secure and supportive.

In Jessica’s sessions, there is room to slow down. The work can involve understanding patterns, tending to hurt, and making space for connection both within the person and with the people who matter to them.

“Sometimes a shared safe space to slow down and begin to find curiosity can shift a gridlock, a trauma trigger, or a painful relationship.”

How Jessica helps

Care for a relationship, a child, or a family in a hard season.

Jessica’s work begins with the people in the room and what they need to feel safe enough to grow.

01 · Reconnect

Couples counseling

When painful events, recurring conflict, or distance make it hard to reach one another, Jessica helps couples slow the conversation and understand what is happening beneath the argument. As a Certified Gottman Therapist, she can bring structure and practical tools to the work of strengthening friendship, managing conflict, and rebuilding connection.
02 · Express

Children & teens

Children do not always have words for what they are carrying. Jessica’s child-centered play therapy training helps her meet younger clients through developmentally appropriate ways of expressing and exploring experience. With teens, she makes room for their perspective as they navigate emotions, family changes, and relationships.

03 · Support

Parents & families

Jessica helps families facing stress, past hurt, and disconnection look at the patterns shaping daily life. Her relationship-centered work can help parents and family members respond with greater understanding while building a more secure, supportive connection.
Her approach

Safety first. Then room for something new.

Jessica believes that relationships can change when people feel safe enough to be honest and curious. She brings different tools to couples, children, and families, while keeping the same steady attention to trust, attachment, and each person’s experience.

Gottman Method couples therapy

Jessica is a Certified Gottman Therapist. This framework helps couples understand conflict patterns, deepen friendship and intimacy, and build shared meaning through focused, practical work.

Emotionally focused, trauma-informed care

She pays attention to the feelings and attachment needs underneath reactions, especially when painful experiences have made connection feel less safe. Sessions move at a pace that allows those experiences to be explored with care.

Child-centered play therapy

In work with children, play can offer a natural way to communicate and process experiences that are difficult to put into words. Jessica’s child-centered training supports a respectful, developmentally attuned space.

Support for parents and caregivers

Jessica’s training in Trust-Based Relational Intervention informs attention to children’s needs, relational safety, and the ways caring adults can respond during difficult moments.
