Jessica Messer, LCSW

Psychotherapist
HI
Hi there, I'm Jessica! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker on O'ahu with a Master’s in Mental Health Social Work from the University of Hawaii at Manoa. I believe that therapy with a well-matched provider can be the beginning of deep healing and transformation in one's life. When partnered with me, clients can expect to be gently led below the surface to uncover the true roots of their hurts, habits, and hang-ups, and when ready, will be met with healthy skills and support to move forward. My approach If overwhelming stress, relational conflict, and unhealthy habits were the "bad fruits" of one's life, my approach as your therapist would be to partner with you to discover and understand the roots of these issues: how they came to be and how they were perpetuated, and when ready, to guide you through the process of problem-solving and skill-building to plant new seeds for a fruitful life. I utilize components from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, psychodynamic therapy, Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and solution-focused therapy. My focus I have over ten years of experience working in children's mental health settings with clients, mostly female, ages 3-21, along with their parents and caregivers from all socio-economic and ethnic backgrounds, to address issues such as sexual trauma, depression, anxiety, oppositional defiance disorder, adjustment disorder, and pervasive family conflict. I also have experience working with adults to address stress around significant life transitions, navigating relationships, marriage and parenthood, and postpartum. Additionally, I work with immigrant families, including clients who are first- and second-generation, to address issues connected to assimilation and cultural identity. Being a daughter of Filipino immigrants, I recognize the unique experiences that this brings to one's story.
