Jessica Wagner

Jessica Wagner

Therapist

Virtual • Massachusetts


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.

I have over 25 years of clinical work experience with adolescents, young adults, and adults of diverse backgrounds. My extensive experience working with adolescents, inspires me to work with youth who may be struggling in ways that their caretakers find overwhelming. Additionally, I have helped parents/caretakers to better manage family life and improve their relationships with their children during difficult times. Each person deserves support so that they can navigate home life and the outside world successfully. My only request is to have hope!
