Jess, Licensed Therapist

Hi. I’m Jess. Thank you for being here!

I provide specialized online therapy in California for active-duty service members, veterans, and military spouses who are navigating the heavy weight of service. Whether you are dealing with the invisible wounds of trauma, the persistent fog of depression, or the constant hum of hyper-vigilance, you’ve likely spent years perfecting the art of "holding it together" for the mission and your family. You aren't looking for a generic therapist; you want someone who understands the high-stakes reality of your lifestyle and respects the culture of service.

Understanding the Toll of "Powering Through"

In military culture, discipline and strength are essential, but the silent expectation to "just keep going" can leave you feeling numb or isolated. You may feel like a version of yourself was left behind on a deployment, or you might struggle with a sense of being "always on," waiting for the next crisis while feeling increasingly disconnected from the very people you are fighting to protect.

Sustainable resilience isn't about ignoring the weight you carry; it’s about processing it. I moved away from surface-level talk therapy to focus on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), an evidence-based approach that helps you address the underlying source of your trauma, anxiety, or depression. By examining how your experiences have changed the way you view yourself and the world, we work together to resolve the "stuck points" that keep you trapped in the past.

Reclaiming Control & Deep Connection

My goal is to help you trade the constant hum of threat-detection for emotional control, mental clarity, and deep connection with your loved ones. You can keep your core strength while learning to safely drop your guard at home, step out from under the heavy fog of service stress, and feel genuinely present in the life you are building today.

I am committed to providing culturally competent care that integrates a deep respect for the military lifestyle with advanced clinical tools. As an approved provider for TriWest and VA Community Care Network (CCN), I offer a direct, confidential path to the high-quality support you deserve from anywhere in California.
