Getting to know Jessica Sharp

I believe therapy begins with curiosity—about who you are, where you come from, and early life experiences that have shaped the way you move through the world. As an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist, I view therapy through a culturally-responsive, attachment-based lens, recognizing that our past can help us better understand–not define–our present. I work collaboratively with clients to explore how early experiences and cultural influences may continue to show up in their relationships, communication, boundaries, and sense of self. As an Asian American clinician, I recognize the unique challenges many clients face when navigating cultural expectations, family obligations, acculturation experiences, and conversations surrounding mental health within their communities. I aim to provide a compassionate and culturally attuned therapeutic environment where clients feel seen, understood, and empowered. My approach is grounded in attachment-based therapy and integrates evidence-based approaches, including Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Gottman Method, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and psychodynamic therapy. I integrate these approaches thoughtfully and collaboratively, tailoring our work to your unique experiences, relationships, and goals for growth. I work with adults, couples and adolescents. Whether you are looking to address trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, identity issues, life transitions, or patterns that no longer serve you, my goal is to help you develop a deeper understanding of yourself and your relationships so that you can move toward greater connection, authenticity, and emotional security. When I’m not in the therapy room, you’ll often find me spending time with family, reading a good book, trying my hand at a new recipe, watching movies, or making the most of the beautiful San Diego sunshine.
