Jessica listens carefully and understands my situation extremely well! She provides honest and helpful comments. I appreciate all of the input and suggestions she provides me.

Written on Oct 31, 2024 after therapy with Jessica for 1 year and 11 months on issues concerning stress, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, grief, self esteem, and coping with life changes

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.
