About

Jessica is a passionate mental health professional with a Master of Social Work from Loyola University Chicago and a B.A. in Psychology from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Jessica has undergone advanced training in the Neurosequential Model of Therapeutics (NMT) and trauma-informed care, understanding the relationship between trauma, the body, and the mind. Jessica excels in guiding individuals from a place of feeling fractured to experiencing wholeness, strength, and empowerment. With a diverse clinical background spanning adolescents, adults, and families, Jessica is deeply knowledgeable in evidence-based practices. Jessica primarily works with anxiety, along with trauma, self-esteem, and perfectionism. She skillfully integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectic Behavioral Therapy (DBT) techniques to provide comprehensive care tailored to each client’s unique needs. Jessica strives to foster a warm and supportive atmosphere for clients to freely explore their thoughts, emotions, and experiences without judgment. She values building trust and meaningful connections with her clients. Her ultimate aim is to empower individuals to embrace control over their lives and thrive. Outside of her clinical work, Jessica loves spending quality time with her puppy, staying active, indulging in music and pop culture, and getting lost in a good book.
