Jessica is extraordinary. In my life time I have seen a number of therapists. Few if any of them had Jessica's extraordinary grasp of the experience of those who suffer from some form of PTSD, including insomnia, flash-backs, problems with anger management, and time lost to a dissociative state. She was an EMT for 15 years before she was a therapist. This is very valuable preparation for anyone seeking to understand the complexities and persistent problems associated with the management of trauma. In my experience, there are no quick solutions to living with PTSD. There are, however, a number of tools that can be used to manage the problem such that your past no longer dominates your present. Jessica has the right skill set, an a kind of knack for teaching these tools. I recommend her highly, and without reservation. She may or may not be the right therapist for you. For me, personally, I am very, very grateful to be able to work with her.

Welcome and thank you for your interest! I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker in Massachusetts and Rhode Island with a Masters degree in Social Work from Boston College. I have 20 years of experience helping clients work through personal challenges. I focus on developing and fostering a safe, non-judgmental space in which clients can more comfortably explore their struggles and barriers to self-fulfillment. My approach to therapy is integrative and draws on multiple modalities (e.g. cognitive-behavioral, solution-focused, trauma-informed, interpersonal, mindfulness-based), thus allowing me to tailor how I work with each client as an individual.
I am passionate about treating survivors of all types of trauma and have advanced training in Prolonged Exposure Therapy. I help clients with depression and anxiety, grief and loss issues, and have over 15 years of hospital-based social work experience, helping clients work through end-of-life issues, sudden traumatic losses, pregnancy losses, & difficult diagnoses.
I am a former EMT and have previously worked with veterans and public servants.
I look forward to meeting you and supporting you on your journey!
About online counseling
Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Ranging from $60 to $90 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
