Hi, I'm Jessica and I love supporting youth and their families to bring out confidence and build healthy relationship patterns to support them as they grow in today's world. I have background in Expressive Arts Therapy and bring creative approaches including art, play, and drama therapy techniques as entry points into cognitive behavioral interventions and strategies to assist with behavior, emotion regulation, and understanding of one's self. My philosophical goal as a therapist is to help people I work with curate more joy into their lives and for children to be seen in their unique strengths and supported to grow through challenges. I believe that curiosity is the antidote to depression. Let's get curious together!
I’m a psychotherapist and coach with nearly two decades of experience working with teens, young adults, and families. Much of my work focuses on strengthening communication, rebuilding trust, and helping people navigate major life transitions, including adolescence, college, relationships, and career development.
Over the past several years, I’ve focused deeply on generational, religious, and family dynamics—especially the ways past experiences shape how we relate to ourselves and to the people closest to us. My goal is simple: to help people like each other as much as they love each other.
My approach is practical, direct, and collaborative. I integrate evidence-based therapies such as CBT, DBT, EMDR, and Internal Family Systems, while also helping clients develop clear communication skills, emotional awareness, and confidence in who they are and how they want to live.
Clients who work with me can expect thoughtful conversations, honest feedback, and a focus on meaningful growth—not just symptom relief.
Hi! I have over 20 yrs of experience as a therapist and practice from a CBT perspective. I pride myself on being an attentive listener and I enjoy helping clients explore their issues, gain perspective and insight, learn new skills, and evolve through healing and personal growth.
Starting therapy is a meaningful step towards understanding yourself and creating lasting change. Together well work to explore the challenges youre facing, and help you mover towards greater balance and fullfillment.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Westport
Finding therapists in Westport starts with understanding what kind of support fits your needs. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, work stress, or a major life change. As you compare Westport therapists, look for listed specialties that match what you want to work on. You can also review therapy approaches, such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), trauma-informed care, or other methods noted in a therapist’s bio.
Westport has local therapy options, but appointment availability may vary in smaller markets. Virtual therapy can give you more choice while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Connecticut. As you narrow your search, consider whether you prefer in-person care near Westport, virtual sessions, evening availability, or a therapist who offers a free phone consultation. Reading each profile can help you understand how a therapist structures sessions, communicates, and supports people with needs like yours.
Therapy in Westport can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose from therapists who are accepting new patients. Browse profiles, compare fit, and book directly when you’re ready.
