Therapist

Virtual • Alexandria, VA


I’m Jessica, a trauma-informed therapist deeply committed to helping women and girls reclaim joy, peace, and emotional abundance. My work centers on creating safe, supportive spaces where clients can explore relationship dynamics, unpack generational trauma, and build tools for healing and resilience.

I specialize in guiding women and girls through the layered challenges they face—whether navigating stress, anxiety, grief, or relational wounds. Many of my sessions focus on strengthening communication, deepening connection, and fostering beautifully healed relationships.

This work is not just my profession—it’s my calling. My commitment to serving women and girls is the heart of Inmost Being Behavioral & Consulting Services. I also bring unique insight as a Military and Family Life Counselor and as the spouse of a retired service member, with a deep understanding of the emotional needs of veteran women and military-connected families.

Psychologist

I have a double Master's and a Doctoral degree in psychology. I began my graduate study In NYC in 2006 doing research and clinical work in attachment theory both with young children and adults. It was there that I witnessed the impact of early and adult attachments. I have trained and worked in a variety of settings and each time I witnessed the fundamental human need of a secure, responsive and safe connection and the impact of isolation and trauma.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • North Chesterfield, VA


Hello! Thanks for checking out my profile, and congratulations on taking the first steps in trying to find the right therapist for you! Should you choose to work with me you'll learn plenty more about me, but to hit the highlights: I spent the first half of my career and vocational life working in non-profit management and fundraising before becoming a therapist. I'm divorced and have 50/50 custody with my co-parent of our two delightful children (11 & 13). I love nature, soccer, and cooking!

I work with couples and individuals 21+, and have a particular interest and passion in working with folks (whether individually or as a couple, friends, or members of a family) suffering from CPTSD, complicated grief, and significant attachment and developmental trauma.
