I love how my therapist Jessica cares about what I went through with my life such as my job and my mental health issue and my socialization as well and she's very open-minded about the things that I explain to her about how I talk about the good moments and the bad ones too. I love how we talk through about any conversation deeply and how we sort it out together.

Jessica is warm, caring and very insightful. She easily keeps abreast of a lot of information and remembers exactly where the person is and why along with relevant background information.

Jessica is extremely kind, supportive, and professional. She is easy to talk to and genuinely cares for my well-being. Jessica has been guiding me through trauma therapy and shown me that my world can get better. Having her as my therapist has changed my life in ways I genuinely didn't think were possible before.

Jessica is a truly remarkable therapist that is patient, never judging, always kind and understanding. Will help you dig deeper to find the root of how you came to be this way and opens your mind to new horizons about yourself. Then come up with strategies on how to deal as well as reform from new gathered information. We also Pray together and she really helps to shed new lights on perspectives.
Truly indebted to her. God Bless
