Hi there, I'm Jess!
I take an active approach to therapy. I help clients learn about patterns that keep them stuck and learn strategies that create new patterns. I work from the bottom up, utilizing somatic/body-based approaches (think grounding, breathing, mindfulness) and top-down approaches to support the integration of emotion regulation.
My focus
Most of the people I support are working towards increasing emotional regulation. I work closely with clients to decrease anxiety. In addition, I specialize in treating trauma and addictive behaviors.
My approach
I mostly utilize skills derived from DBT while incorporating Mindfulness. I also utilize EMDR to target trauma along with Somatic Experiencing.
