Jessica Ruiz

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a passion for helping people heal from life’s difficulties. My educational background includes a Bachelor’s in Psychology and a Master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy. I am certified as a PREPARE/ENRICH facilitator which allows me to assess and help couples identify their relationship strengths, gain understanding about the underlying dynamics that influence their communication, and then help couples develop skills to improve their growth areas.

I use an eclectic approach when working with my clients including but not limited to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Family Systems Theory and Brief Solution Focused. My areas of expertise include:

• Anger Management
• Anxiety
• Christian Counseling
• Coping Skills
• Depression
• Divorce
• Family Conflict
• Grief
• Life Transitions
• Parenting
• Pre-Marital
• Relationship Issues
• Self Esteem
• Spirituality
• Stress
• Women’s Issues

As a counselor, I believe that clients need a safe, non-judgmental and confidential environment in which they can explore the thoughts and feelings that are causing them pain.
