In mental healthcare, true healing happens when you feel completely seen, heard, and met with grace. My mission is to partner with you to navigate life's complexities, balancing clinical excellence with deep empathy. I look at wellness holistically...focusing not just on managing symptoms, but on supporting your mind, body, and spirit so that you can thrive.

I believe that to encourage holistic wellness in others, I must practice it myself. When I am not working, you can usually find me spending quality time with my children, tackling a DIY home improvement project, or planning our next big roadtrip adventure. I have a deep love for long-distance travel, exploring historic highways, slowing down the pace of life and meeting strangers across America.

I have proudly served the healthcare community for over 25 years, working in an array of settings. For the past 8 years I have focused on mental health and helping others heal their mind, body, and soul with medication management, psychotherapy, and hormone balancing. I treat ages across the lifespan starting at age 4.

I specialize in treating ADHD/Autism, PTSD, Depression, Anxiety, OCD, Substance Use Disorders, and many other diagnoses by providing compassionate, evidence base care and diagnostic evaluations for a variety of mental health needs.

Counseling for me is about companionship! Companions are with you through the good and the not-so-good. The most important thing in counseling is creating a relationship where people can feel and think how they want to about their experience within the relationship because whether we are stepping in the right or wrong direction we are ever growing and changing. Everyone perceives life through a different lens. Biological, physiological, and environmental variables influence those perspectives in different domains of people’s lives. All ages with: Anxiety, Depression, Addictions, Schizo and Mood Spectrum, Paraphallic, and Trauma.

I’m an LCSW with five years experience in the field. I received my BA and MSW from NKU. I primarily focus on delivering therapy to neurodivergent, adolescent and LGBTQIA+ populations.

I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in the state of Kentucky and a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Missouri. I have over a decade of professional work experience in this field. I am a National Certified Counselor as well as a Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional. I have experience in helping clients with stress, anxiety, coping with addictions, motivation, self esteem, confidence, past trauma, and depression.

Hi, I’m Jessica, a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP). I provide compassionate, personalized mental health care in a supportive and judgment-free environment. My approach is collaborative and centered on understanding your unique needs, experiences, and goals. Together, we’ll create a thoughtful treatment plan to help you feel your best and improve your overall well-being.

I graduated from the University of Louisville in 2008 with a Master’s in Education in Counseling and Personnel Services, with a concentration in expressive therapy. I have worked with individuals across the lifespan in psychiatric hospitals and community mental health settings, and I now work exclusively in private practice, providing therapy primarily to adults (18+). I specialize in helping individuals heal wounds and reconnect with their most authentic selves.

I believe in the power of connection, presence, and inner wisdom as part of the healing journey. I am a certified Primordial Sound Meditation teacher and integrate mindfulness, meditation, and holistic approaches into my work.

On a personal note, I am an imperfect human with a past full of life lessons, doing the best I can each day. My own journey of healing has given me a deep appreciation for the transformative power of therapy and I am so grateful for my therapist. I enjoy exercise, yoga, meditating, pottery, creative journaling, spending quality time with my daughter and loved ones, spending time in nature, reading, learning, and traveling.

The healing process can be challenging but so worth it! —and the good news is, you don’t have to do it alone. I am here to walk alongside you with compassion, presence, and support as you navigate healing, growth, and create a life aligned with your values and purpose.
