Jessica Bender

Are you struggling with managing stress and anger? Do you feel overwhelmed with day-to-day tasks or have trouble falling asleep because you can't turn your brain "off"? I strive to support each client through empathy, education and humor. I am passionate about working with clients to help process challenges, to gain skills or provide some extra support during life's transitions. I have worked with all ages in hospital settings, outpatient, addiction treatment and community settings. My specialties include anxiety disorders, ADHD and substance use concerns

In sessions I use an eclectic style of different approaches including CBT, DBT, motivational interviewing and trauma informed care. Based on your individual goals, I use what works best for you. I focus on joining you where you are at and working together to tackle the uncomfortable with effective tools and strategies.

I work to collaborate with you to get you where you want to be. You are the expert in your own life and it takes courage to seek help with life's challenges. In sessions we will work toward your goals and towards your ideal self.
