Hi, I’m Jessica, psychotherapist and founder of A Wholehearted Way Counseling. I work with individuals and couples who are moving through periods of anxiety or depression that often show up during life transitions, including perinatal and postpartum experiences, grief and loss, identity shifts, and relationship challenges whether in monogamous or non-monogamous partnerships.
I know that reaching out for support can feel vulnerable, and I aim to offer a warm, grounded space where you don’t have to navigate these experiences alone and can begin to feel more supported, understood, and connected to yourself.
Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker | Certified Dementia Practitioner
Boston, MA | In-Person & Telehealth Sessions
I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) and Certified Dementia Practitioner (CDP) with more than two decades of clinical experience helping adults navigate complex emotional, relational, and medical challenges. I hold a Master’s in Clinical Social Work from Boston College and have dedicated my career to providing thoughtful, evidence-based care rooted in authenticity, compassion, and the belief that genuine change is possible at every stage of life.

I believe that movement is medicine, and that healing emerges through the mind–body connection — where awareness, purpose, and action intersect.

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 Lawrence
Searching for therapists in Lawrence starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, work stress, or a major life change. As you compare Lawrence therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties, training, and approach match what you want to address. Bios can show whether a therapist uses methods like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or other approaches that fit your goals.
In a smaller city like Lawrence, the right local match may depend on more than office location. Virtual therapy can expand your options across Massachusetts while still letting you see a therapist licensed in the state. As you narrow your search, compare appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, session format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand how each therapist works, what they specialize in, and what a first session may look like.
Therapy in Lawrence can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, shows estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book, and lets you choose between virtual and in-person appointments when available. You can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
