“I was hesitant at first to get any kind of help because I got so much on my plate that I started to “believe” I have no time and don’t need any kind of therapy with my recent trauma but decided to listen to my heart. With Jessica I felt comfortable right away! Even though it was an intake session she still took the time to listen to what I am going through, seemed to really care and reminded me that taking care of myself is priority so I can stay strong ! Glad I have met her!”

“Jess is a great listener but she doesn't make ME do all the talking. She summarizes what I have said, recognizes patterns, and asks questions that make me think about next steps. She helps me come up with practical things I can try to make myself feel better.”

Getting to know Jessica Alfaro
Hi. I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California. I received my Masters from St. Mary's College of California and have been working with clients for 17 years. I have worked extensively with teenagers and parents, as well as individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, parenting and relationship issues. I am passionate about helping clients be the best version of themselves. I strive to provide a safe and non-judgmental space for you to explore your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, and gain a deeper understanding of yourself. It can also be a valuable tool in learning new coping skills and strategies to manage difficult emotions and situations. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or simply feeling stuck in life, counseling can support you in finding the clarity and direction you need to move forward.
More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.

She very open and warm. I know I repeat myself at times but she doesn’t seem annoyed by it as I work something out in my head.

Jessica does an amazing job connecting with my 10 year old daughter. Her warm & welcoming personality made it easy for my child to open up. Jessica has provided tools to help my daughter's stress/anxiety & tips on how to use her voice so she feels empowered.
