Los Angeles, CA
All of you is welcome here.
In a world that often tells us who we ought to be, it can be tempting to mold ourselves into someone we think we should be rather than embracing who we truly are. The relentless self doubts— that we are not good enough, that we are too much, or that we don’t matter at all— can lead us to present a facade to the world, creating a barrier between our true selves and the life we yearn to live.
Luckily, we have options.
In the present moment, there are countless possibilities for re-connection to ourselves and the world around us. I believe in the potential of every person to heal and rediscover a sense of self that feels authentic, grounded and resilient.
Not your typical Therapy
While talk therapy can be valuable in helping people navigate their emotions and experiences, it may not always address the deeper roots of their problems, often leaving underlying beliefs, patterns and emotions unchanged.
By addressing both the psychological and somatic aspects of being human, we uncover the root causes of distress and cultivate resilience from within.
I’m Jessica
I’m a contemplative, trauma-focused psychotherapist based in California. I have a deep commitment to nurturing the innate capacity of the mind to change, adapt, and heal.
