Hi, I’m Jaci
Life can feel overwhelming, especially when past traumas, anxiety, or depression hold you back from living the life you want. I’m here to help you break through those barriers and start the process of healing. With a focus on Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), I work with individual adults, families, children, and adolescents to uncover the root causes of emotional pain, build coping skills, and create lasting change.
Connection, Healing, and Empowerment
I believe that connection—with ourselves, with others, and with our purpose—is at the heart of mental wellness. Whether you’re dealing with trauma, ADHD, anxiety, depression, or self-harm, my goal is to create a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore your feelings and experiences. Together, we will work to break free from patterns that no longer serve you, reduce feelings of guilt and shame, and empower you to take control of your future.
You don’t have to carry the weight of your past alone. I’m here to walk alongside you as you process your experiences and find new ways to cope with the challenges you face.
Are You Ready to Take the Next Step?
Healing starts with a choice—a choice to look at your past, understand how it impacts your present, and take an active role in creating the future you want. If you’re feeling stuck in the same cycle or pattern, I’m here to help you break free. Together, we’ll explore the unmet needs in your life and find new, more effective strategies to meet them. Sometimes, all it takes is a little support and guidance to have those difficult conversations, establish boundaries, and make meaningful changes.
I work with adults, teens, and children, helping each client to:
Improve overall happiness and fulfillment
Reduce feelings of shame and guilt
Decrease anxiety and stress
Manage depressive symptoms
Build resilience and emotional strength
Working with Younger Clients: Supporting Families
For children and adolescents, navigating big emotions can feel overwhelming. I help parents better understand what their child is trying to communicate and offer practical strategies to support both the child and the parent-child relationship. Whether your child is struggling with ADHD, anxiety, trauma, or behavioral issues, we’ll work together to create a plan that fosters healing, growth, and connection.
Specializing in Trauma: Safe, Compassionate Healing
Much of my experience has been working with traumatized youth and their families. Trauma can have a profound impact on mental health, but it doesn’t have to define your future. In our work together, my priority is to create a safe space where you feel supported and understood. We’ll gently explore your pain, shrink the fear surrounding it, and grow your inner strength to move forward.
I believe in taking things at your pace—starting with building safety and trust, and then gradually working through the pain together. Healing is possible, and with the right support, you can reclaim control over your life.
What to Expect
Therapy is not a quick fix—it’s a process, and I’m here to guide you through it every step of the way. We’ll work together to set goals that align with your needs and take steps to achieve them in a way that feels right for you.
Here’s what you can expect when we work together:
- Practical strategies for managing anxiety, stress, and depression
- A safe space to explore trauma and difficult emotions
- Support for parents to better understand and communicate with their children
- A focus on building resilience, self-worth, and confidence
- Empowerment to take control of your mental health and live a fuller, more joyful life
Therapy Sessions
I offer therapy sessions that are tailored to fit your needs:
- 50-minute sessions for $120
- 80-minute sessions for $170
Together, we’ll determine what session length is right for you, depending on the complexity of the issues we’re addressing and your personal preferences.
Let’s Work Together
Healing and growth aren’t things you have to figure out on your own. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed by trauma, anxiety, or depression, or if you’re seeking support for your child or family, I’m here to help you take the next step toward a healthier, more fulfilling life.
