Jade Dearing

Jade Dearing

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Westlake Village, CA


Trauma-Informed. I specialize in treating adults with unresolved childhood traumas / C-PTSD. I deeply understand how early life experiences shape present-day struggles—I specialize in helping people heal from those roots, not just manage surface-level symptoms.

I am trained in powerful, evidence-based and experiential modalities like EMDR, IFS-informed parts work, Emotionally Focused Therapy, the Safe and Sound Protocol, and Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy. Not one-size-fits-all—I tailor treatment to each individual’s nervous system, attachment patterns, and inner world.

Most importantly, I show up as a therapist: I provide a warm, safe, and non-judgmental space where clients can be fully seen, heard, and validated. I understand that reaching out for help can feel overwhelming, and I meet clients with compassion, patience, and respect for their pace.

I am committed to helping clients work through inner emotional conflicts so they can move toward a more stable, fulfilling, and connected life—not just symptom relief, but real, lasting transformation.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Lancaster

Searching for therapists in Lancaster starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want to address. You may be looking for support with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare Lancaster therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy styles, and population experience that connect to your needs. A therapist’s bio can help you understand their approach, what sessions may be like, and whether their background feels relevant to what you want from care.

Lancaster has local therapy options, and virtual sessions can add more flexibility if you want a wider range of appointment times or prefer care from home. As you narrow your search, consider practical details like whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers times that fit your schedule, and provides in-person or virtual appointments. You can also look for a free phone consultation, which gives you a chance to ask about fit before booking an initial session.

Therapy in Lancaster can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, review estimated out-of-pocket costs, compare bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
