Getting to know Jessica Rittenhouse

I am a clinically licensed social worker in Virginia with over 10 years of experience working as a counselor with adolescents and adults. I hold a Master's in Social Work from Salisbury University. I have worked with clients facing a wide range of concerns, including anger management, relationship issues, goal setting and achievement, and parenting challenges. My counseling style is upbeat, motivational, and interactive. I believe in getting to know each person as a unique individual and working creatively to incorporate your beliefs, values, and important life experiences into reaching your goals. My approach is very client-centered, with a focus on cognitive-behavioral therapy. I will work with you to understand and meet your specific needs and desires.

What should a new client know about working with you?

It is my goal that you will feel encouraged and empowered to achieve your goals. I will assist you in learning and applying helpful tools that you can then put into practice in your everyday life. Another important goal is that you feel heard and understood. Therapy offers a safe place for you to vent, talk out conflicts or concerns, and discuss goals and future planning.

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.

I have a really hard time finding therapists and Jessica has been great. She lets me vent but then comes up with solutions. I really enjoy meeting with her!
Very compassionate and helpful!
Had a really good experience with Jessica! Will be seeing her weekly now. She listened great but also took time to get to know me which I haven’t really had before. She knew what questions to ask and is helping keep me accountable.
