Getting to know Jessica Ridgeway
Hello, I'm Jessica, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Georgia. Since 2012, I've dedicated myself to helping individuals navigate their mental health journeys. My experience spans individual and group therapy, both in-office and online, addressing issues such as depression, anxiety, relationship and parenting challenges, teenage concerns, grief/loss, addiction, trauma, abuse, bipolar disorder, personal growth, adjustment issues, and crisis management.
For the past nine years, I've had the unique opportunity to work within the Georgia prison system, providing counseling services to female offenders in treatment programs for mental illness and substance addiction. This experience has deepened my understanding of resilience and the transformative power of therapy.
My counseling style is empathetic, integrative, and person-centered. I believe in a collaborative therapy process where we work together to re-author perspectives and discover solutions and insights that help you thrive. I utilize leading psychological modalities such as Narrative Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Solution-Focused Therapy. Additionally, I incorporate the Gottman Method, Motivational Interviewing, and Strategic and Trauma-Focused approaches in our sessions.
As a Certified Grief Specialist, I offer specialized support for those navigating the difficult journey of loss. My goal is to create a safe and supportive environment where you feel heard and understood, and where we can work together to achieve your personal goals.
I look forward to the possibility of working with you and supporting you on your path to well-being. If you're ready to take the next step, please reach out. Let's embark on this journey together.
