When something isn’t changing,
it may be time
to work differently.

You may understand the problem. You may have talked about it, worked on it, and tried to think your way through it. And still, the anxiety returns. The relationship pattern repeats. Something in you reacts before the thoughtful, self-aware part of you has any say.

Online EMDR and integrative therapy can help you work at a level that insight alone may not have reached.

What you’re experiencing now may have deeper roots.

Anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, self-doubt, and reactions that seem bigger than the moment don’t always make sense when we look only at what is happening today.

Over time, the mind and nervous system learn what to expect, what to protect against, and what we need to do to remain safe, connected, or accepted.

Those patterns can continue long after the circumstances that shaped them have changed—even when we understand where they came from.

EMDR offers a way to work with experiences, beliefs, and reactions at a level that talking and conscious insight may not fully reach.

More freedom in how you live now

What feels stuck may not be a failure of effort, insight, or willpower. When deeper patterns begin to shift, you may find yourself able to:

Feel less governed by what happened in the past.

Remain present when something unfamiliar activates you.

Respond from choice rather than automatically repeating familiar reactions.

Trust yourself and your own perceptions more deeply.

Experience grief without being swallowed by it.

Become more available for connection, pleasure, possibility, and joy.

The goal isn’t to eliminate every painful feeling or difficult reaction. It is to have more freedom in how you meet the life you are living now.

Who I work best with

You don’t need to arrive knowing exactly why you’re struggling—or already able to recognize every pattern shaping your life.

I work best with adults who are curious about themselves, open to looking beneath the surface, and ready to participate actively in change. Some have already done years of therapy or personal work and understand themselves quite well, but still find that something isn’t shifting. Others simply know that the way they are feeling, relating, or moving through life is no longer working for them.

This may be a good fit if you:

Keep encountering the same struggles
Anxiety, depression, self-doubt, or relationship patterns that you haven’t been able to change.

Understand a great deal intellectually
But find that your emotional or physical reactions haven’t caught up.

Are moving through grief or transition
Including a changing sense of who you are or what comes next.

Want to try a different way of working
Such as EMDR or another approach that reaches beyond talking and insight alone.

Want therapy to help you live differently
Not only understand yourself better.

Appreciate room for larger questions
About meaning, intuition, consciousness, loss, and experiences that don’t always have tidy psychological explanations.

A note about fit:
My practice is intentionally focused and designed for adults who have enough stability in their daily lives to engage in deeper work. It is not designed for crisis-oriented care or intensive stabilization.

Ways we can work together

  • EMDR Therapy

    For anxiety, recurring emotional triggers, negative beliefs about yourself, relationship patterns, and past experiences that continue to affect how you feel and respond today.

    EMDR can help the brain and body reprocess what talking and conscious insight have not fully resolved.

  • Shock & Single-Incident Trauma

    Accidents, assaults, medical emergencies, natural disasters, and other overwhelming events can leave behind intrusive images, avoidance, or a nervous system that still feels in danger.

    Focused EMDR can help the brain and body process a specific event. In my experience, most people find meaningful relief within a small number of targeted sessions.

  • Grief & IADC

    Grief is not something to “get over,” and healing does not require severing your relationship with someone you love.

    Our work may include processing the traumatic aspects of a loss, making room for the full complexity of grief, and exploring continuing bonds. For appropriate clients, I also offer Induced After-Death Communication.

  • Life Transitions, Identity, Meaning

    Sometimes nothing is obviously wrong, but the life or identity that once fit no longer does.

    Therapy can offer room to explore who you are becoming, what you want now, and questions involving meaning, intuition, purpose, consciousness, and what comes next.

  • Emotion Code & Body Code

    For clients interested in energy-based approaches, Emotion Code and Body Code offer another way of exploring and releasing emotional and energetic patterns.

    These methods are always optional and can be integrated into therapy when they fit your interests and the work we are doing together.

  • Psychedelic Integration Support

    I do not provide, prescribe, or facilitate psychedelic substances. I do offer a grounded, nonjudgmental space for clients who have had psychedelic, plant medicine, or ketamine experiences independently and want help understanding and integrating what emerged.

About me

I’ve been on both sides of the couch.

I’ve been a psychotherapist for 25 years, and my own healing began more than 30 years ago. Both experiences have shaped how I work

I believe that in this big, messy world, there is always more life to be lived and that curiosity and the willingness to experiment are a key to a life well lived. More about me. And more about how I do therapy.

What clients have shared

  • "I am very excited about the results of last week's EMDR. I have had a few situations during this past week that would have caused serious anxiety before, but no anxiety in those situations! Some were personal and some were work related. I can't believe how different and confident I feel!"

    — K.N.

  • "I’ve never been to a therapist where I felt like there were so many solutions. It always felt like I had to just get really strong and good at managing."

    -H.S.

  • "Thank you again for the sessions we did back in the fall. They were so helpful. Because of that time working with you, I was able to process the trauma of the sudden loss of my mom and therefore I have been able to focus on just grieving spiritually and emotionally. Thank you SO much for your time! You have truly been a lifesaver for me during this difficult time."

    — J.K.

  • "I can't tell if I am in shock or if the therapy has helped me to a place I am not an emotional wreck. I was pretty broken and angry this morning though still not completely devastated like I would have been in the past. I literally feel like you have helped saved my life. I don't even know how you repay someone for that. Regardless, thank you sooo incredibly much."

    — D.C.

  • "Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all of your guidance, insight, and wisdom. Your words are packed full of love and goodness which as helped me beyond measure and at a time when I needed it the most."

    — A.P.

  • "Thank you for encouraging me when I wanted to quit, for challenging me when I wanted to settle and always pushing me to be better. You will never know what you have meant to me."

    — H.P.

  • My daughter absolutely loves you and that makes my heart extra smile. Thanks so much, again! Sending you all the love and joy that’s as beautiful and warm as your heart!”

    — T.W.

  • "No matter how insistent I was about how bleak things were, you maintained such a beautiful counterpoint with cryptic reminders that life is not that serious, that there is beauty all around us, and that hope is eternal. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for being my lifeline when I lost my way."

    — S.B.

  • "...I don't have to feel helpless or out of control anymore. You've given me the tools I need to work through pain and hurt so I can truly move on with my life."

    — M.T.

  • "Jessica, I want to thank you for helping me over the past year. You have really taught me and shown me how to become the person I want to be."

    — N.P.

  • "I want to thank you for the (off and on) years of counseling you've provided. It has truly been a life altering experience that I am incredibly thankful for. I am now equipped to handle the many challenges of life. You've been a critical part of my journey to healing and being able to step into living my best life. I am forever grateful." - K.R.

  • I wanted to tell you that working with you has probably saved my life. I was in such a horrible place this fall and I didn't believe that I would ever be able to move on, and the subsequent spiraling thoughts. I sing your praises, as well as EMDR!

    - A.B.
