Does your child need help? Is your teen struggling? Are you struggling? Being a kid, teen, young adult, or parent is hard- especially in this day and age. Life can be stressful and full of challenges- some harder than others. You don't need to do it alone and I am here to help. I can help by normalizing and guiding the feelings brought up by living in a fast paced, outcome, and image based world. We can work to determine the underlying causes of your symptoms and discover a way forward.

Family and relationships are the most important things in our lives, but they can also be the place where we find most hurt and need the most healing.

I am here to listen, support, and help you in your journey forward.

Our ideal client is someone who is need of support, guidance, and is willing to explore in a collaborative effort with their therapist to reach mental and emotional healing. One who is able to take accountability on what they need to do to get better, and someone who genuinely wants to improve the quality of their life. Their goals need to be realistic and achievable.

Jessica’s approach to therapy is based off of a client centered and trauma informed perspective. Her belief is the client is the one in the driver’s seat and the clinician is the passenger, helping guide and support where the client wants to go. Jessica believes that the client takes on an active and direct role in their own treatment and lives, while the clinician helps guide and support that journey. Jessica’s perspective is to empower the client to increase self-awareness and understanding through an array of modalities including cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavioral therapy.

Mental health issues affect everyone and can hinder our ability to function in important aspects of life. Some of us are struggling to process a loss, trauma, a life transition, or an illness. Some of us are feeling anxious and depressed, but we are unsure of the cause. When we keep repeating the same patterns that don’t serve us anymore, it can be difficult to move forward. Fortunately, you don’t have to go about your days feeling overwhelmed, stuck, and alone in your experiences.

Whether you are facing relational tension, a personal obstacle, or need career advice, every single person needs a place where they feel safe to talk honestly and openly about their life. For many people, mental health professionals provide that safe space where they can regain perspective, clarify their goals, and create a path forward. The counselors, coaches, and therapists at Handel Behavioral Health provide such a space for many clients. During their time, many clients cultivate their self-awareness, examining—with courage and honesty—their strengths and weaknesses.
