I am a licensed clinical psychologist with 25 years of clinical experience. I hold a Doctor of Psychology (PsyD) in Clinical Health Psychology and a Master of Science in Clinical Psychopharmacology.

I am licensed in multiple states and have worked with military members within the VA, Army, and Air Force. My clinical focus includes clinical health psychology, trauma-informed care, integrated primary care behavioral health, and psychological assessment across the lifespan.

I am trained in evidence-based treatments such as EMDR, Cognitive Processing Therapy, Prolonged Exposure, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I am deeply committed to whole-person wellness and helping people find their empowered selves.

Outside of my professional life, I enjoy backcountry skiing, bow hunting, hot yoga, and connecting with spiritual aspects of the natural world.

I bring warmth, humor, and clear guidance to therapy. Cognitive techniques help uncover how thoughts shape emotions and actions, while mindfulness fosters calm and focus. We’ll also explore your values to guide our work. Humor keeps things light, and directness ensures we stay on track. Together, we’ll work toward lasting growth and confidence.I earned my Master’s in Counseling from Wake Forest University.

If you’re seeking compassionate, collaborative support, you’re in the right place! I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with an M.A. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Denver Seminary (2018) and training at Denver Family Institute.

I’ve worked in multiple settings, including substance‐use intensive outpatient programs, which shaped my systems‐focused approach.

I am an EMDR certified, Licensed Professional Counselor with over 7 years of experience supporting children, teens and adults. I specialize in helping clients who are ready to work through past trauma and develop healthy coping skills to support emotional regulation and self-esteem. I primarily work with adults experiencing symptoms of PTSD, anxiety, depression and ADHD.

My approach is rooted in trust, empathy, curiosity, and genuine care. I believe that meaningful change begins in a safe, supportive relationship where you feel seen and understood. I strive to create an environment where you can explore your thoughts and emotions freely, without judgment. I have had experience working with all ages- spanning from private practice, community mental health, school social work / school based therapy, and residential treatment centers. While I love working with children and adolescents, I also provide space for adults and parents.

I am a therapist that welcomes all, humbly, and strives to build community with those I encounter. You are welcome here, however you may be.

Hi, my name is Jessica and I look forward to meeting you. I think a sense of humor can be the best medicine. I also understand life gets serious and I'm happy to help when things aren't easy.

As a therapist that is informed by relational therapy, I believe we don't only heal with therapeutic strategies and techniques; we also heal in relationships and communities with one another. This means that my number one priority as your therapist is to develop a trusting and meaningful connection with you where you feel safe, seen, and regarded. My communication style varies from person to person because there is not one single way to show up and be present as a therapist.

Clients should know that I provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where they can show up as their authentic selves. I value building a genuine connection and work collaboratively with clients to help them better understand themselves, develop coping skills, and move toward meaningful change at their own pace.
