Hey, I’m Jess!

I’m a licensed mental health counselor working with adult women in Massachusetts, North Carolina, and Vermont, and I’m happy you’re here.

Many women who come here are high-achievers, sensitive, and self-aware, yet exhausted from overthinking, people-pleasing, and feeling disconnected from what matters most. You might look fine on the outside while feeling weighed down by anxiety, old patterns, or the relentless inner critic. 

Therapy with me is warm, collaborative, and grounded in compassion. We create a safe space where you’re truly seen, not judged, and where you can begin to understand what drives your stress, expectations, and emotional exhaustion. 

You May Be Struggling With:

  • Anxiety and chronic overthinking

  • People-pleasing and difficulty saying no

  • Perfectionism and fear of failure

  • Burnout and emotional exhaustion

  • Feeling responsible for everyone else

  • Low self-worth and a harsh inner critic

  • Difficulty setting boundaries without guilt

  • Relationship patterns that keep repeating

  • Feeling disconnected from yourself or your needs

  • Trauma and attachment wounds

  • Feeling stuck even though you “know better”

  • Difficulty slowing down or truly resting

Imagine What It Would Feel Like To…

  • Quiet the constant mental noise.

  • Trust yourself without second-guessing every decision.

  • Say no without feeling consumed by guilt.

  • Set boundaries and still feel like a good person.

  • Rest without believing you have to earn it.

  • Stop living on autopilot.

  • Feel safer and more grounded in your own body.

  • Understand your emotions instead of feeling controlled by them.

  • Know what you want, not just what everyone else needs from you.

  • Feel more confident, connected, and at home in yourself.

I use trauma-informed care, EMDR therapy, somatic techniques, and relational support to help you process what’s been holding you back, calm your nervous system, and build practical skills for more grounded daily living. 

A little about me:

Outside of therapy, I love animals, can lose hours to a good book or TV series, and will never turn down a great cup of coffee. I believe in finding joy in the little things and weaving humor into everyday life (because sometimes laughter really is the best medicine).

If this resonates with you, I’d love to connect.

Ready to feel calmer, more confident, and more like yourself again? Schedule a free 15-minute consultation to see if we’re a good fit.
