Jessica Abuchaibe

I've worked with individuals and ran support groups for people with autism, ADHD, anxiety, addiction/codependency, depression, schizophrenia, PTSD, sexual issues and human trafficking at mental health centers/hospitals. I've worked at Hoag (ranked amongst top 1% hospitals in nation) for suicidal/homicidal ideation and self-harm. The last place I worked at is the Neurodivergent Collective (#5 treatment center in the world) for adults with ADHD and Autism. I'm currently running my private practice full-time.

Being an integrative therapist, I use the approaches that better suit my clients to help them build awareness, self-efficacy, and effective coping strategies. Through validation, compassion, an open-mindset, directness, and flexibility, it is my objective to assist them in achieving self-acceptance, healing, and growth to live a happier, more fulfilled life, while also cultivating a strong support system.

I have extensive training and experience in trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy, psychodynamic, expressive arts, psychodrama, dialectical behavior therapy, person-centered and life coaching amongst others. I can provide support to each person to identify which therapeutic approach is effective to help them succeed in navigating their dilemmas and ultimately create a life worth living for themselves.
