You’ve lost yourself by putting others first & trying to live up to their expectations
You struggle understanding and expressing your needs. You also don’t like to disappoint people or be difficult. It’s common for you try to do everything on your own & let what bothers you build up.
You’re stuck in the cycle of ignoring your needs but wanting better connections. You feel disconnected, confused, frustrated and anxious. You are not getting what you need in your relationships and you don’t know how to manage the conflict that is present.
You are probably trying to figure out how to…
✔ Validate and communicate your needs and emotions
✔ Set healthy boundaries for yourself and your relationships
✔ Manage self-criticism and finally feel good enough
✔ Break unhealthy cycles in your relationships
✔ Know how to resolve conflict effectively
Find your way back to you…
You are realizing you can’t have a thriving life or healthy relationships when you put yourself last. With the right support you can learn how to communicate your needs. The relationship you have with yourself and others can be different. I help people identify and communicate their wants and needs. Taking care of yourself doesn’t have to feel selfish. Communicating what is important to you doesn’t have to end up in conflict. Your needs deserve to be heard too.
Hi, I’m Jessica
Helping you figure it out what a fulfilling life looks like for you.
I’m a First Generation Latina and I understand how complicated and messy breaking painful cycles can be. Especially the repeated generational cycles surrounding family, values, and culture. Together we will figure out what cycles you want to break. You deserve the freedom of living the life that you want, not the one others expect. This is your story to create.

Client-centered
Building a connection with you is something that is important to me. I have found this to be a key factor related to the success of therapy. To achieve this connection, I provide an individualized experience by considering your values, ideas, and opinions throughout our collaboration. The goal is to build an authentic relationship with you.
Strength-based
I believe every person has their own unique set of strengths and skills within them. A strength-based perspective gives us the opportunity to focus on what you can do instead of what you can’t. Together we will learn your existing strengths and explore how they can be maximized to your benefit to create the change that you are looking for.
Outcome-informed
Feeling heard and seen matters here. My goal is for you to have a life changing therapy experience. Your feedback is encouraged along the way to know what works for you and what doesn’t. This helps include you in the process and gauge your progress. The goal is to always work on my approach in any area to continue meeting your therapy needs.
