Getting to know Jessie McPherson
Hey there! I'm Jessie!
Do you feel like you're carrying a bunch of unnecessary thought baggage around? Like your destination is the beach in life, but for some reason you keep bringing a parka that doesn't fit anymore though you think it still does? Or do you feel like you're down in the dumps and can't seem to find a way to climb out? Or do you notice yourself beating yourself up worse than a punching bag?
If so, we can work on that! I work well with people who want to have a better relationship with themselves, others, and the world around them but are having a difficult time doing so. In the work I do with my clients, I help people evaluate and challenge the thought processes that influence their emotions and actions to see how these beliefs serve them. And if those thoughts don't quite help a client get where they would like to go in life, I guide clients in identifying more helpful thoughts that do serve them and where they want to go in life.
Whether you have experienced trauma, have had a lot of unsupportive family members or significant people in your life, or perhaps you are your own worst critic, I'm here to help you look at yourself and your thoughts in a more realistic manner. Instead of allowing the past to dictate your present and future, I'm here to help put you back in the driver's seat of your life.
I hold a Master's degree in Mental Health Counseling from Radford University, which has equipped me with the knowledge and skills to support you on your journey toward healing and growth.
What should a new client know about working with you?
During our first session, you can expect me to ask you a lot of questions so that I get a better understanding of what you want to work on as well as getting a history of events that lead you to a place of wanting different. From there, sessions will focus on identifying thoughts/beliefs that may be impeding you, finding ways to evaluate your thinking, and then replacing your thoughts with more reality based beliefs. I also will offer a lot of skills for managing unpleasant emotional states

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.
