Getting to know Jessica Howard

I'm Jes, and I've been in the human services field as a social worker for over 15 years. I hold a Master's in Social Work from the University of Pittsburgh. I have experience and enjoy working with individuals who struggle with anxiety, depression, family, relationship, and interpersonal stresses. Additionally, I have worked with people who have serious mental illness, those involved with the legal system, and family members of individuals with serious mental illness who have committed violent crimes. My background includes inpatient psychiatric care, child welfare, and community outpatient services. I take pride in helping people understand their experiences, assist them in recognizing what others or loved ones may be going through, and support them in improving mood, reducing anxiety, and creating a safe space for self-expression and processing thoughts and feelings.

In-network insurances

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.
