Virtual therapy for all California residents
& In-person in Oakland, CA
Specializing in somatic, transpersonal, and depth-oriented psychotherapy
for anxiety & depression, grief & loss, and those who are in a transition in their lives
Hi, I’m Jessie. I’m a registered Associate Marriage and Family Therapist through the Center for Mindful Psychotherapy. My approach is inviting, empathic, and inquisitive. I work somatically and relationally. I incorporate parts work, Jungian depth work, and psychodynamics. Together, we will identify old patterns and beliefs, and will transmute what is ready to shift using the innate wisdom held within you while we access parts of you and archetypes available to support this growth. I will help you create opportunities where your dreams may unfold their boons.
Therapy is an invitation to investigate what is most alive in the present moment. I offer a space to explore that aliveness with curiosity, empathy, and respect. My style of therapy often incorporates mindfulness, movement, breath, imagery, and supportive touch in sessions. As a practitioner of somatic therapy, I offer a space that invites the intelligence of the body to engage in dialogue with the mind. This container is an opportunity for inquiry and integration.
I specialize in working with concerns related to health, anxiety, grief and loss, sex and sexuality, spiritual growth, and embodied mindfulness. My training in somatic practices includes massage, Ayurveda, dance, yoga and meditation, which all inform my clinical presence. My background in the healing arts shapes my understanding of the holistic complexity of being human.
I seek to provide radically inclusive therapy and welcome all.
My specializations include:
working with those who are in a transition in their life (death, loss, divorce, parenthood, marriage...)
