After experiencing pain and loss in my own life, I knew my life calling was to help others walk through life’s most complicated issues while instilling hope that joy and beauty can be found along their journey. In my non-directive therapeutic approach, I create a safe space for individuals to express themselves without reproach and I empower my clients to believe that they have the answers they need within themselves. I utilize evidenced-based modalities and I provide each client with the tools they need to reach their fullest potential. I don’t believe in fixing broken people but in helping hurting people find lasting healing.

You're no stranger to "working on yourself." At some point, though, all the practices and techniques you'd been using stopped being enough and just became one more thing on a mile-long to-do list. It seems like things were better at one point but you now feel like you've plateaued. You want to experience a deeper level of healing but you don't know how to get there. That's where I can help. I'm Jessica, and I help spiritually-minded people get unstuck, heal on a deeper level and live more authentic lives. Together, we'll move beyond trendy (and often bypassing) techniques and create lasting, more meaningful changes in your life.

Codependency Therapists
What therapy types help with codependency problems?
Both couples and family therapy and cognitive and behavioral therapy (CBT) can help with the relationship difficulties referred to as codependency. Such problems typically include inappropriate feelings of responsibility for a loved one’s destructive behavior, irrational patterns of thinking about such behavior, and family interaction patterns in which the needs of one troubled member override the needs of others in a household.
What happens in therapy for codependency?
Spouses and family members learn and practice how to interact and support each other in a healthy way without sacrificing their own needs or well-being. They learn the limits of their responsibility for their loved ones and correct faulty patterns of thinking and feeling that underlie codependent behavior. Individuals may be encouraged to nurture an array of social relationships and to cultivate their own talents and interests so that they develop a healthy sense of self outside the family.
How does therapy help a person or couple overcome codependency?
Therapy helps people establish healthy ways of being in a relationship. Spouses and family members learn how to nurture and support one another without sacrificing their own needs or allowing the needs of one person to dominate the dynamic. Individuals learn how to say no and set boundaries, and how to maintain their own identity and self-esteem. Therapy helps people understand that they are not responsible for the feelings and actions of others. It also helps individuals deal with the turbulence that can come from living with a person suffering from such conditions as substance abuse and mental illness.
What is the goal of therapy for codependency?
One goal of therapy for codependency is to alleviate feelings of responsibility for and correct irrational patterns of thinking about loved ones whose behavioral problems override the needs of others in a household. Therapy helps people establish healthy boundaries of behavior and speak up for their own needs in a relationship. In addition, people learn how to maintain a healthy relationship, one in which both parties give and receive equally and are able to retain their own identity.
