Hi, I’m Jessica—a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and big believer in the power of healing conversations.
I provide telehealth therapy across Florida, helping adults feel more connected, confident, and understood.
With a Master’s in Social Work and years of experience, I specialize in early childhood development, anxiety, depression, and eating disorders. Whether we’re untangling worries, building self-worth, or navigating tough transitions, I’m here to create a safe space where real growth can happen—at your pace and in your way.
My approach is solution-oriented and direct, but always collaborative. I'm not here to just listen and nod. I'm here to work with you toward change. I believe in naming things clearly, asking the hard questions, and building a plan you can actually use. As I tell my clients: if you're not changing it, you're choosing it. My job is to help you make that choice consciously, and to help you get where you're trying to go.
I specialize in anger management and mood regulation, problem-solving, depression, trauma and anxiety. I work well with clients who want a therapist who will challenge them as much as support them. Someone who brings structure and honesty to the room, without losing sight of compassion.
If you're ready to start building the version of yourself you actually want to be, I'd be glad to help you get there.
Growth isn't about having all the answers; it's about having a safe place to explore the questions. I provide specialized online therapy to help you better understand yourself, navigate life's challenges, and build practical tools for lasting change. For the past 13 years, I've helped high-achieving adults, including professionals in STEM, aviation, aerospace, healthcare, and analytical fields, manage anxiety, stress, burnout, relationship challenges, identity questions, and life transitions with greater confidence and clarity.
I welcome individuals from all backgrounds and have a special interest in working with LGBTQ+ and multicultural communities. My approach is warm, honest, and collaborative. Together, we'll identify what's getting in the way, build on your strengths, and work toward the goals that matter most to you using evidence-based strategies tailored to your unique needs.
As a licensed provider, I am proud to offer virtual sessions for clients located throughout Florida, Colorado, and South Carolina. Reach out today to schedule a consultation.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist offering therapy for children, teens, and their caregivers. I have over 9 years of experience working with youth and families on issues such as child depression, anxiety, trauma, and behavioral problems. I earned my PhD in Clinical-Community Psychology from the University of South Carolina. I completed a pre-doctoral internship and post-doctoral fellowship at the University of Miami (UM) Mailman Center for Child Development, where I specialized in pediatric psychology, primarily working in school-based primary care clinics with middle and high-school students. In addition to years of academic and clinical training, I am also the mother of a toddler. Being a parent myself has deepened my understanding and empathy for the families with whom I work.
You deserve a space where you can say the hard thing out loud and not be judged for it. Whether you're a man who was never taught how to talk about any of this, someone rebuilding after alcohol or substance use, carrying grief you haven't had room to feel, or living with bipolar disorder, depression, anxiety, or stress that never fully switches off, you can bring it here and we'll work with it.
Outside of work I'm watching sports and playing basketball. I also appreciate time at the beach.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Winter Haven
Searching for therapists in Winter Haven starts with finding someone whose background matches what you want support with. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, work stress, or a life transition. As you compare therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy approaches, and experience that connect to your needs. A therapist’s bio can also show how they structure sessions, communicate, and help people work toward their goals.
In a smaller city like Winter Haven, local in-person therapy options may be more limited than in larger Florida markets. Virtual therapy can expand your choices while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Florida. When narrowing your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading profiles before booking can help you compare approach, focus areas, and fit in one place.
Therapy in Winter Haven can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower session costs and make ongoing care more affordable. Headway helps you find therapists who match your needs, accept a wide range of insurance plans, and are ready to take new patients. You can enter your insurance details, view estimated costs before booking, review therapist bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
