Jessica Salvino

After working for a few years post college in a job that left me feeling unfulfilled, I discovered my passion for helping others discover the best versions of themselves. After completing my Master's in Counseling at Duquesne University, I became a licensed clinical professional counselor in the state of Maryland. I found my passion in supporting individuals who are navigating substance use disorders, as well as those facing mental health struggles that make it hard to manage difficult emotions. I work with clients ages 13 and up, helping them find clarity, healing, and strength along the way

I take a collaborative, flexible approach to therapy, blending techniques from DBT, CBT, and ACT to best meet your unique needs. I believe you are the expert of your own life, and my role is to empower you to make meaningful, lasting changes. Above all, my goal is to create a safe, supportive space where you feel comfortable sharing and growing at your own pace.

In our first session, we’ll take the time to get to know each other and work together to create a plan that aligns with your goals for therapy. My approach is collaborative, combining validation and understanding with gentle encouragement to help you move toward the changes you’re seeking.
