Getting to know Jerica Thompson

I am a licensed clinical social worker who aims to help adults navigate major life transitions, trauma, financial stress, and anxiety with clarity and compassion. While working together to rediscover balance, I provide a supportive space where you can explore your emotions and regain a sense of control over your life. My approach My approach is grounded in collaboration and authenticity. I integrate evidence-based techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy with a person-centered, trauma-informed care approach. My focus My ideal clients are people who feel stuck or overwhelmed, whether it's because of a recent traumatic experience, ongoing anxiety, or financial stress. Life can get heavy, and in our work together, I can help you slow down, process what's happened, and find tools to bring relief and stability. My communication style My goal is for you to feel heard, supported, and understood in every session. My communication style is grounded in active listening and reflection. I like to ask clarifying questions and reflect so that I know we are on the same page during our sessions. My journey to mental healthcare My journey of becoming a therapist began with the deep desire to serve others, as I've always been drawn to understanding what drives people. I've learned that life experiences often shape people's behavior. Over time, my history of working with underserved populations taught me the power of empathy, listening, and advocacy. My goals for you I like to prioritize each client's personal values when setting goals during the initial sessions. It is important to keep goals aligned with what matters most to each individual, so we will begin with self-exploration of values and set goals based on your presenting concerns. My first session with you During the first session, we will take time to get to know each other and gather information.
