Hi! I am really happy you are here. My name is Jessica, and I am an LCSW in Utah and Nevada with 5 years of experience. I have always felt drawn to helping others, and therapy is one way I am able to fulfill that passion. I am here to support you, to see the best in you, and envision the life that you can still create no matter what you’ve been through. My approach to healing is through a strong therapeutic relationship that you can rely on while working through difficult things.
I have worked with individuals, families, and in group settings. I specialize in anxiety, self-worth, coping with addiction, interpersonal relationships, abuse, and trauma. My counseling style is friendly, open, and collaborative. I recognize that it is not an easy task to ask for help or to share certain thoughts and feelings with another person. My approach utilizes a combination of different therapeutic interventions tailored to each client’s need. I am versed in cognitive behavioral therapy, internal family systems, and acceptance and commitment therapy, among several other modalities. I believe in helping my clients unlock their fullest potential and discovering their ability to overcome challenges they encounter.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
