Psychotherapist
IL
Hi there, I'm Jessica! Getting started with therapy for the first time or after a long time can feel like an added challenge to the things you are already struggling with. You are braver than you think, and I am glad that you made it here. My focus areas are depression, anxiety, and trauma. I use a collaborative approach that is paced by you and tailored to your needs. I am here as a source of information and support on your journey to the you that you desire to be. Let's get started, together. My approach I use Cognitive-Behavioral-Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical-Behavioral-Therapy (DBT) techniques to support progress towards your goals. That means we will navigate the layers of your life experiences, then identify stressors and triggers in order to learn tools that help you manage emotions and behaviors in a healthy way. P is for progress, not perfection, and it starts with one step. You are ready, and yes, you can do this. My focus If most days feel like a wet blanket is weighing you down, if you are easily distracted or anxious, therapy can be helpful to better understand why and how to move forward. I have worked with individuals struggling in different areas of their lives, and many are experiencing issues with sleep, appetite, and overall functioning. We will partner to peel back the layers and customize a plan for progress in the direction of your goals. My communication style Transparent and truthful communication is imperative for a healthy therapeutic relationship. Sessions are offered without judgment and designed to support you in talking through difficult things. My journey to mental healthcare During my first year of college, I witnessed an incident of domestic violence that led me to change my major in order to begin the journey to be a Social Worker. I have served professionally in Child Welfare, Domestic Violence, Adoption, and Parent-Education roles that have allowed me to witness the benefits of therapy in real time.
