I've only had a couple sessions with Jessica but so far she has been wonderful and seems like she really cares about helping me get back on track.

Jessica has helped me regained confidence in myself and my beliefs and allowed me the time to heal by listening to me and engaging me with questions that allowed me to look deeper into my self and see why I was responding the way I was. She is very trustworthy and has been able to help me just by allowing me to speak of my experience. She understands the social structure and traditions of my family customs and I feel like she understands me and can offer advice on how I can create my changes. I am extremely grateful to her for helping me see I am valuable and with that value I do have the right to exist and be in a healthy environment. No longer thinking of killing myself but see a good relevant future for me.

She is a great mentor and life coach. She has helped me live a normal life like others from the painful past and traumatic events happened in my life. Am very grateful to her for all the help she has done to recover me from a very hopeless painful life I was leading to a very hopeful promising future.

Jessica was a wonderful therapist to work with. I felt like she understood my goals and thoughtfully pointed out my blindspots on my journey in therapy with her as my guide. I would highly recommend working with Jessica and would entrust her with guidance again should I ever decide I need to come back to Therapy.

Jessica is very easy to talk to. She will tell you like it is if necessary, which I really appreciate. Sometimes I need the brutal truth and she is very concerned with helping me get better. I would definitely recommend her to anyone struggling.

Fantastic lady
Written on Oct 30, 2022 after therapy with Jessica for 2 months on issues concerning depression
I was a hopeless wreck before Jessica entered my life as my therapist. She is exactly what I need and continue to seek in a therapist. I am a mum, wife and a business owner and I was deeply overwhelmed and depressed. She helped me so much! Jessica is compassionate, listens intently and guides me to clarity and offers me different perspectives so I can understand what I'm going through. She never makes me feel bad for feeling the way I do. She encourages me when I'm onto something good and also offers suggestions on how I can make something/task easier/better for me. I feel lighter, happier and more confident after each session with her. I have had therapists before....she is definitely at the top of my list! Thank you for being so incredible Jessica! :)

Jessica is amazing, she is patient and takes time to understand the context of the person undergoing therapy. She is impartial and focuses on ways to make the individual grow, not just ways to appease the individual. I would recommend Jessica for anyone undergoing relationship challenges.

Jessica's expertise, listening skills, and emotional intelligence helped her understand my situation so she could help me see it from a new perspective. She helped reframe it and offered some coaching. Speaking with her has been so helpful. I feel better now and can see the situation in a new light.
