About Jessica

You may be wondering what makes me uniquely qualified to support you through a time of loss, grief, and transformation. The truth is, I understand grief deeply—not just as a professional, but as someone who has walked this difficult path myself. I’ve lost loved ones who can never be replaced, and I’ve faced moments of profound despair because of it. Yet, I’ve also discovered the strength to heal and rebuild, finding my own path toward peace and resilience.

I live with these losses every day, and they continue to shape my understanding of love, connection, and life itself. These experiences fuel my passion as a therapist, driving me to explore and deepen my understanding of how grief, loss, and life transitions affect us all. I am committed to helping others navigate the complexities of finding strength and meaning when life feels forever altered.

In my work, I aim to provide a safe, compassionate space where you can explore your own healing journey, knowing that you don’t have to face it alone.

I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Washington (LF60691693) and Oregon (T2289), as well as a Certified Advanced Clinical Hypnotherapist. I work with individuals, couples, and families who are navigating challenges such as loss, grief, major life transitions, trauma, anxiety, depression, and personal growth.

My therapeutic approach is grounded in the belief that, with the right support and insight, we all have the capacity to find meaning, resilience, and growth in even life’s most difficult circumstances. I provide a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you can explore your struggles and gain clarity. Together, we will work with curiosity and empathy to develop personalized strategies that empower you to cope with life’s challenges and move toward healing and well-being.

Professional Bio

I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Antioch University Los Angeles and a Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Antioch University Seattle. In addition, I am a Certified Advanced Clinical Hypnotherapist, having completed a two-year training program at The Wellness Institute in Issaquah, WA. 

During my graduate studies, I gained invaluable clinical experience through a traineeship at Auburn Youth Resources, where I provided therapy and social services to youth and families. At the same time, I facilitated therapeutic support groups at The Healing Center in Seattle, working with children, teens, and young adults experiencing grief and loss.

Prior to relocating to the Pacific Northwest, I volunteered with Free Arts in Los Angeles, where I created and led therapeutic art events for families living in transitional housing. This work was part of their "Parents and Children Together with Art" (PACT) program, designed to foster connection and healing through creative expression.
