Meet Jessica
Jessica passionately supports career-focused adults who are navigating the complexity of being a working parent. She's dedicated to helping you conquer self-doubt, manage the pressures you feel at work, and excel in your multifaceted roles before reaching the point of burnout. As a mom of two, Jessica understands how hard it is to balance the demands of parenting while working in a high-demanding career. As you work together, Jessica will provide effective coping strategies to help you feel more confident and resilient.
In sessions, Jessica creates a friendly and collaborative virtual space. She’s always willing to follow your lead and will empower you to guide your own therapy journey. Jessica is a firm believer in building trust as it’s an integral part of your success in therapy. In building trust, Jessica isn’t afraid to challenge you in ways that help you overcome self-doubt.
When she’s not in sessions, Jessica enjoys spending time with her partner and children, who help her to be more adventurous. You can find her outside with them, going for bike rides, learning to golf, or making s’mores. Jessica also finds time for herself by reading a good book, cuddling her dog Millie, or having sushi dates with friends.
