SUPPORTING YOU WHEN IT MATTERS most.
YOU WANT things to CHANGE AND you feel STUCK.
Life has a way of bringing us to moments when the things that used to work no longer do. Maybe you're navigating a transition, questioning what you want, or finding yourself caught in patterns you don't quite understand. Therapy can be a space to slow down, look beneath the surface, and make sense of what’s really going on. Together, we can create a clearer understanding of where you’ve been, where you are now, and what you want moving forward.
You might be here because …
-
Change can be exciting, difficult, or both. Whether you’re starting over, questioning what comes next, or adjusting to a version of life you didn’t expect, therapy can give you space to process the change, understand what you need, and find your footing in what comes next.
-
You’re the person others rely on, and you’re good at keeping things moving—even when you’re struggling underneath it all. Therapy can give you space to step out of that role, reconnect with what you need, and explore what it might feel like to take care of yourself, too.
-
Maybe you react in ways you wish you didn’t, repeat the same relationship dynamics, or find yourself struggling with emotions that seem bigger than the situation. Therapy can help you slow down, understand where these patterns come from, and develop a greater awareness of what’s happening beneath the surface.
-
Your life may look good on paper, but that doesn’t mean it feels that way. You may be questioning what’s missing, feeling disconnected or unfulfilled, or wondering why achieving the things you thought would make you happy hasn’t quite brought the sense of satisfaction you expected. Therapy can help you explore what’s underneath that disconnect and figure out what you truly want.
-
Maybe you keep having the same arguments, feeling misunderstood, or finding yourself falling into familiar roles and reactions. Therapy can help you understand the patterns beneath the conflict, communicate more honestly, and create healthier ways of relating.
-
Maybe you replay conversations, second-guess your decisions, or find yourself constantly trying to figure out what you should do. Therapy can help you understand what’s driving the overthinking, quiet some of the mental noise, and feel more confident in your own thoughts, feelings, and decisions.
-
Maybe you feel restless, disconnected, or like you’ve outgrown a version of your life that used to make sense. You may not have a clear answer yet—and you don’t need to. Therapy can give you the space to slow down, get curious about what’s not working, and begin figuring out what you want instead.
-
You may have spent years figuring out how to get through life, but now you want to understand why you think, feel, and respond the way you do. Therapy can help you explore the experiences and patterns that have shaped you, develop greater self-awareness, and build a stronger sense of who you are and what you need.

MY NAME’S JESS.
My path into the mental health field is both professional and personal. As a teenager, I experienced anxiety and depression — challenges that led me to psychotherapy and, ultimately, to a deeper understanding of how profoundly early emotional experiences shape our internal lives.
Therapy was not simply a set of tools. It was an opportunity to understand the underlying dynamics influencing how I felt, related, and interpreted the world. That experience continues to inform my work today, grounding it in both empathy and respect for the complexity of psychological change.
I hold a Bachelor’s degree in English Literature and Gender Studies from Indiana University and a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health from Wayne State University. My clinical training spans both adolescent and adult settings, including outpatient and inpatient care, where I developed a strong foundation in psychodynamic, cognitive, and relational treatment models.
Over time, my work has increasingly centered on insight-oriented psychotherapy with adults. I am particularly interested in how early attachment experiences, internalized expectations, and unconscious patterns shape identity, anxiety, and relational functioning.

THERAPY THAT MEETS YOU WHERE YOU ARE.
You don’t have to come to therapy with a perfectly defined problem—or even know exactly what you need.
Sometimes you just know that something feels off. Therapy is a place to slow things down and get curious about what’s happening beneath the surface. Together, we’ll explore your experiences, relationships, emotions, and patterns with honesty and compassion.
The goal isn’t to turn you into someone different. It’s to help you understand yourself more clearly, feel more grounded in who you are, and create meaningful change in the parts of your life that matter most.
