Getting to know Jessica Balderas
Hi there, I'm Jessica!
I'm Jessica Balderas, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I am passionate about helping people find fulfillment and become their best selves. I focus on creating a warm, non-judgmental, genuine vibe to build a space where clients can let their guard down, be themselves, and start healing.
My approach
I take a real-world, client-centered approach, combining relational attachment theory, CBT, solution-focused therapy, and art therapy to create a unique and transformative experience. With empathy, self-exploration, and authenticity, we'll create a supportive space where you feel seen, heard, and understood. Let's work together to tackle life's challenges and find lasting solutions that create real change.
My focus
If you're struggling with depression, anxiety, life changes, grief, or low self-esteem, I'm here to help. I understand these struggles can leave you feeling unmotivated and hopeless, but I believe in the power of change and growth. In our sessions, we'll navigate these challenges and find motivation to move forward. Together, we'll work toward self-discovery, resilience, improved self-worth, and authenticity. You deserve a life filled with happiness and fulfillment, and I'm here to help make that a reality.
My communication style
My style is direct, compassionate, and informal. I strive to build a strong therapeutic alliance without stuffy or complicated concepts. I believe in actively listening and validating your experiences with everyday talk. I approach sessions with an open mind and a heart full of empathy. You can expect a safe space to express yourself and feel heard without judgment. Just showing up to that first session is hard enough.
