Jess specializes in trauma-informed and mind-body therapies, and is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT) with experience in using somatic techniques to alleviate stress and foster serenity. She recognizes that all people need a safe place to process relationship problems, work on making changes, or grasp tools to deal with life's stressors. “We store so much of our emotional past within our physical bodies; together, we will learn to release that energy and become more present.” 

Jess's therapy style is warm, collaborative, and sexuality and gender-affirming. Since 2009, she has helped many people take steps to turn pain into growth and regain control of their lives. Her clinical interests are trauma, anxiety, neurodivergence and substance use disorders. Jess has worked with a wide array of populations in both inpatient and outpatient settings. As a result, her approach is adaptive and person-centered to meet your individual needs.  

She knows that sometimes we struggle with unhealthy patterns, feel lost in the shuffle, and are less able to cope. She creates a safe place to process relationship problems, work on making changes, or grasp tools to deal with life's stressors. Growth happens here.
