Hi, I’m Jessie! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over a decade of experience helping parents step into their role as the central, confident pillar of their family. As a certified Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT) clinician and EMDR-trained therapist, I specialize in partnering with parents to overcome challenging behavior, reduce parenting stress, and restore peace at home.

I believe that strong, flourishing families start with empowered parents. Whether you are dealing with daily toddler tantrums, defiance, and aggression, or trying to navigate emotional distance with your teen, you don’t have to do it alone. Using evidence-based approaches we will replace daily home chaos with clear parental authority, deep mutual connection, and joy in everyday moments.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master’s in Social Work from the University of Missouri–Kansas City and clinical experience in both civilian and military settings. Over the years, I’ve supported individuals facing trauma, anxiety, stress, life transitions, relationship challenges, and identity concerns.

I’ve worked as a therapist in outpatient settings, private practice, and as a behavioral health provider within the Missouri Army National Guard. These experiences have given me a strong foundation in trauma-informed care, EMDR-informed approaches, CBT, and strengths-based therapy.

I support clients dealing with trauma, anxiety, depression, stress, burnout, relationship strain, and transitions. I take pride in creating a grounded, non-judgmental environment where you can explore what you’re facing and develop strong, sustainable coping skills.
