Who We Help
-
Addiction can feel isolating—but recovery is possible with the right support.
I specialize in working with individuals navigating addiction and early recovery, and understand how complex—and deeply personal—this process can be. Substance use often serves a purpose, and together we’ll explore what’s underneath it so you can begin to create lasting change.
In our work, we’ll focus on building practical coping strategies, strengthening your relationships, and helping you reconnect with who you are outside of substance use. I use evidence-based approaches like Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused Therapy, along with a strong foundation in trauma-informed care, to tailor treatment to your unique needs.
Whether you’re newly sober, or further along in your recovery due to being in substance use treatment (detox, residential, PHP, or IOP), you don’t have to do this alone. With the right support, recovery can feel more steady, more connected, and more sustainable.
In couples therapy, couples can work on rebuilding trust, improving communication, establishing healthy boundaries, and developing a shared understanding of recovery. The goal is not only to support the individual in recovery, but also to strengthen the relationship so both partners feel heard, supported, and empowered moving forward.
I have extensive experience working with individuals, couples, and families in early recovery as I was the Clinical Director of a substance use outpatient program for many years. I know how much strength and courage it requires to take that first step in your healing.

Completing treatment is a significant accomplishment, but recovery does not end when a program does. Early recovery often brings new opportunities, challenges, and questions as individuals begin navigating everyday life without substances. While sobriety may be the goal that brought you to treatment, building a fulfilling and meaningful life in recovery is what helps sustain it.
Drawing from extensive experience in addiction treatment and a family systems perspective, Jessica works with individuals to strengthen recovery, navigate life transitions, improve relationships, process underlying emotional challenges, and create a life that aligns with their values and goals. Together, you can build a foundation that supports not only long-term recovery, but also personal growth, connection, and fulfillment.
Recovery is about more than abstaining from substances—it's about creating a life that feels worth living.
-
Recovery can be a transformative experience, but it often brings unexpected challenges to a relationship. As one partner works to maintain sobriety and build a healthier life, both individuals may find themselves navigating changes in trust, communication, intimacy, and day-to-day roles. While recovery creates opportunities for growth and healing, it can also uncover hurts, fears, and patterns that have developed over time.
Couples therapy provides a supportive space to address the impact addiction has had on your relationship while building a stronger foundation for the future. Whether you are working to rebuild trust, improve communication, establish healthy boundaries, navigate recovery-related challenges, or reconnect emotionally, therapy can help you move forward together.
Drawing from a family systems perspective and extensive experience working within addiction treatment settings, Jessica helps couples better understand the ways addiction and recovery influence their relationship. Together, you can explore old patterns, strengthen your connection, and develop tools that support both recovery and long-term relationship health.
Healing is possible. With support, couples can move beyond surviving addiction and begin creating a relationship grounded in trust, connection, and shared growth.

Addiction and recovery impact the entire family. Loved ones often find themselves navigating feelings of fear, frustration, grief, uncertainty, and hope while adjusting to changes that recovery can bring. Family members may struggle with setting healthy boundaries, rebuilding trust, improving communication, or understanding their role in supporting recovery.
Family Recovery Support provides a space for individuals and families to process the challenges that addiction has created while fostering healing, connection, and growth. Whether you are supporting a loved one in active recovery, navigating the effects of a relapse, or working to rebuild relationships impacted by substance use, therapy can help you develop healthier patterns and stronger connections.
Using a family systems approach, Jessica helps clients understand how addiction affects relationships and family dynamics while empowering them with tools to support both personal well-being and long-term recovery. Together, you can work toward creating a healthier family environment built on communication, trust, boundaries, and resilience.

Struggling with anxiety or depression can feel overwhelming—like your mind won’t slow down or it’s hard to feel like yourself.
You don’t have to navigate that on your own.
I specialize in working with individuals experiencing anxiety and depression, and understand how these patterns can impact your thoughts, emotions, and daily life. In our work together, we’ll take time to understand what’s contributing to what you’re feeling—at a pace that feels manageable and supportive.
As we begin to unpack those layers, you’ll start to recognize patterns, make sense of your experiences, and build practical tools to help you feel more grounded and in control. I use evidence-based approaches to tailor our work to your needs, focusing not just on insight, but on real, meaningful change in your day-to-day life.
Over time, many clients find they feel more connected—to themselves, their emotions, and their bodies—and more able to show up in their lives with clarity and confidence.
-
Self-harming behaviors often begin as a way to cope—especially when emotions feel overwhelming or hard to put into words. It can be confusing, and sometimes even scary, to notice it becoming something you rely on.
You’re not alone in this, and it doesn’t mean something is “wrong” with you.
In our work together, we’ll take time to understand what self-harm has been doing for you—what it helps you express, avoid, or release. From there, we’ll begin to build new ways of coping that feel safer, more sustainable, and aligned with the life you want to live.
This process isn’t about judgment or taking something away without support. It’s about helping you feel understood, creating space to process what’s underneath, and developing tools you can actually use in your day-to-day life.
As we work through the layers together, many clients find they feel more connected—to themselves, their emotions, and the people around them.
