About Jessica
Therapy that meets you where you are.
I believe that healing happens in the context of a genuine, trusting relationship. My role isn't to tell you what to do — it's to walk alongside you as you find your own clarity, strength, and direction.
Hi, I'm Jessica.
I'm a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Maine and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida, offering telehealth therapy to adults navigating anxiety, depression, and life's many transitions. I've spent years working with people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or simply unsure of what comes next — and I've seen firsthand how transformative the right therapeutic relationship can be.
My approach draws from a range of evidence-based modalities — including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Psychodynamic Therapy, and Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT) — tailored to what works best for you. I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach: every person I work with brings a unique story, and our work together is shaped around yours.
Outside of sessions, I'm a firm believer in the power of small, consistent acts of self-care — a morning walk, a good book, a conversation with someone who truly listens. I bring that same philosophy into my practice: meaningful change doesn't have to be dramatic. It just has to be real.

My approach
Evidence-based. Deeply human.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
We'll work together to identify thought patterns that may be keeping you stuck, and develop practical strategies to shift them.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
Building skills in emotional regulation, distress tolerance, mindfulness, and interpersonal effectiveness — so you can navigate intense emotions with greater ease.
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)
Exploring and reshaping the emotional patterns that drive how you relate to yourself and others, fostering deeper connection and security.
Psychodynamic Therapy
Looking beneath the surface to understand how past experiences and unconscious patterns shape your present — bringing insight that creates lasting change.
Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT)
Cultivating self-compassion and reducing self-criticism, so you can meet your own struggles with the same kindness you'd offer a close friend.
What to expect
A space that's truly yours.
Sessions are 50 minutes, held via secure video call. We'll start with a free 15-minute consultation to make sure we're a good fit — no pressure, no commitment. From there, we'll meet weekly or biweekly, at a pace that works for you.
