If you're feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, struggling with ADHD, managing stress at school or work, or feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, you're not alone. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling emotionally exhausted, frustrated, or unsure how to move forward. Others are navigating family conflict, life transitions, low self-confidence, or challenges managing emotions and daily responsibilities.

Clients often describe me as warm, approachable, and easy to talk to. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I provide a supportive space where you can feel heard and understood while also being challenged to grow. My goal is to help you better understand what's getting in the way, build on your strengths, and develop practical tools that help you feel more confident, capable, and in control of your life.

So much of my work is rooted in one question: what happens when we stop trusting ourselves? For me, that question became very personal.

After the birth of my first child, I found myself carrying not only physical pain but a deep sense of disconnection. I was listening to every voice but my own — questioning my body, my instincts, my inner wisdom. It was disorienting in a way I hadn't expected.

With my second child, something shifted. The experience felt empowering, attuned, and deeply mine. I listened inward. I trusted my body. And I witnessed firsthand just how intelligent and wise the body truly is when we feel safe enough to connect with it.

That journey brought me back to something foundational — the body knows. Our minds and bodies are constantly communicating with us. But life has a way of teaching us to override those signals. Trauma, stress, cultural conditioning, the pressure to hold it all together — they all teach us to ignore our inner knowing. Healing, I believe, is often about learning to listen again. It's a homecoming.

You've been carrying something heavy — maybe for a while now. It might be anxiety that follows you everywhere, grief that doesn't seem to lift, chronic pain that touches every part of your day, or just the sense that you're holding it together on the outside while something's unraveling inside. Whatever it is, you don't have to keep doing this alone. I'm Jesse, and for over 20 years I've helped people of all ages — from youth to the elderly — find their way through depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, stress, and some of life's most overwhelming changes.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Army veteran, I specialize in working with young African American veterans who are navigating depression, anxiety, military transition, identity shifts, and the challenges of civilian life.
