Hello, I am Jessica Alea, LMHC. If you have gotten this far, then you understand how much trauma and/or anxiety can impact a person’s ability to find joy. Our minds can be our own worst bully. Experiencing anxiety and trauma, can leave one feeling tired and frustrated. You may feel irritable or too exhausted to deal with social situations. You may spend a lot of time thinking through how to handle social situations because it feels unsafe. Each situation presents another battle with how much you can handle. It just feels like your mind is always "on." If sounds familiar, I can help you find relief.

My approach focuses on utilizing the brain’s ability to adapt through neuroplasticity to develop resiliency over experienced trauma. I have provided therapeutic services to a wide variety of populations including foster children, adjudicated adolescents, victims of domestic violence, service members and their families. I am truly in awe of the ability of the mind to recover and grow beyond the effects of trauma throughout the lifespan. My passion for this process has inspired me to pursue my doctorate in clinical psychology, in order to offer evidence based approaches that encourage lasting life change.

My desire as a therapist is to help others discover the joy in living. I believe that those burdened with traumatic or distressing life events can find hope, healing, and freedom. Many high-performing, intelligent people secretly battle anxiety, depression, and trauma/stress, and they become overwhelmed trying to handle it alone. The mask of perfection smiles that "everything is ok," while the true person feels lost, drained, and confused. If you or a loved one are having difficulty navigating life due to upsetting, stressful life experiences, therapy can provide opportunities to breathe deeply again and look forward to a new day.

Life's unexpected twists and turns can leave us feeling lost, but having someone who offers support without judgment can make all the difference. Creating a safe haven where individuals can freely express their emotions is both an honor and a privilege. If you're facing challenges and feel stuck, know that you don't have to go through it alone. As a former Army soldier and an Air Force spouse, I understand the anxiety and uncertainty that often accompany life's "hurry up and wait" moments. I believe this shouldn't extend to mental health—we deserve proactive support.
