Hi! I'm Jessica Mohan, LCSW. Over the 8 years I've been in practice, I have developed an allied approach to therapy. I believe that progress toward mental health goals is most effective when the client and therapist are equal partners throughout the process, including goal setting, information sharing, and treatment evaluation. I find that being open to change, transparent about thoughts and feelings, and accountable for actions supports an allied approach best. When these factors are in place, I have found success in addressing anxiety, depression, and emotion dysregulation with clients.

While I approach therapy from a Cognitive Behavioral perspective, focusing on challenging thoughts and changing behaviors, I do so with the primary focus on respect for my patients and their individual issues. I want you to feel supported in session but also know that you will be challenged and tasked with completing goals in between sessions. I greatly enjoy helping my patients reach their own goals to be successful in their life, especially in the areas of social relationships, academics, employment, and self-care.

Since 2005, I have worked with individuals and families to address life’s challenges through a client-centered approach.

Thank you for letting me be a part of your journey! I am ONLY taking patients who are young/new moms or moms with depression. This focus specializing in helping moms (especially new moms) adjust to motherhood and the stressors that this transition brings is a passion of mine and I have been doing a lot of training to groups about this. Most of us LOVE our babies, but find the transition into parenthood difficult. I can help with Postpartum Adjustment/depression/anxiety/PTSD, Birth Trauma and just feeling "NORMAL" again. I love helping families!
